Tylonycteris robustula View in CoL

A small-bodied species with a distinctive flattened skull and thickened dark pink pads at the base of the thumb and sole of the foot. It is a rare species on Buton, being known from a single individual caught in a mist net by GP over an open river system in BUR (9 July 2014). We report this record as a minor extension to the species’ known range. It is currently reported as occurring throughout mainland Sulawesi (Bates et al., 2008b) although none of our consulted sources indicate it as occurring on Buton .
