Continued

Identified on the basis of wide noseleaf (> 9 mm) and hairy sella, three specimens were collected at two sites in northern Mozambique. Peak echolocation call of a single male was 54 kHz (ANABAT), which is almost identical to the peak frequencies recorded in South Africa (53.7 kHz — Schoeman and Jacobs, 2008; Monadjem et al., 2010).

ABLE

Field measurements: FA (adult male) 51.6 ± 1.97 (50.1–53.8, 3); Bm (adult male) 12.0 ± 1.00 (11.0– 13.0, 3). Mean nose-leaf width was 11.03 ± 0.60 for the three males.
