Hipposideros vittatus (Peters 1852) View in CoL

Five specimens of this species were collected at two sites in central Mozambique. A large colony was discovered in a cave system in the Cheringoma plateau (Appendix I). Peak echolocation frequencies ranged between 64–66 kHz (ANABAT, n = 2) which are similar to the peak frequencies recorded in Southern Africa (61–65 kHz — Schoeman and Jacobs, 2008; Monadjem et al., 2010).

Field measurements: FA (adult male) 97.0 (1); Bm (adult male) 143 (1); FA (adult female) 96.2 (1); Bm (adult female) 100 (1).
