Hipposideros cf. ruber View in CoL (lineage E1)

This species belongs to the caffer / ruber complex and has yet to be named, but has been placed in the lineage E1 (Vallo et al., 2008). Morphologically, it is indistinguishable from the previous species, but differs in echolocation call (Monadjem et al., 2013 b). This species has been recorded roosting widely, and in large numbers, in old mine adits on the Liberian side of the mountain.
