The bats of the Congo and of Rwanda and Burundi revisited (Mammalia: Chiroptera

Victor  Van Cakenberghe

In 1966, Robert William Hayman, Xavier Misonne and Walter Verheyen published their listing of the Congolese, Rwandan and Burundian bat specimens in the collections in the museums of Tervuren, Brussels, Geneva, London and New York. In the fifty years that have passed since, some major changes have been introduced in the taxonomy of the Chiroptera: new species have been discovered, species have been split off, species have been moved to other genera, and additional material has been collected. We re-evaluated the data presented by Hayman et al., and supplemented this with specimen records found in the literature and in online catalogs. This resulted in 136 species, represented by 20 231 specimens (compared to 113 species and 8567 specimens originally). When available, we also recorded additional information such as locality, sex and age, collector, collection date and preservation type of the voucher specimen. The distribution maps of the Congolese taxa are revised to represent the current taxonomy, and are presented in perspective against the taxon's Species Distribution Model to assess species distribution on the African continent. Additionally, an updated key to the various taxa is presented.

In that issue, R.W. Hayman, X. Misonne and W. Verheyen reported on the bats occurring in the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi, primarily based on material in the collections of the three major Belgian natural history museums: the Royal Museum for Central Africa (RMCA) in Tervuren (also known by its Dutch and French names and acronyms: Koninklijk Museum voor Midden-Afrika (KMMA) / Musée Royal de l’Afrique Central (MRAC) and its historic name of “the Congo Museum”), the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences (RBINS) in Brussels (also: Koninklijk Belgisch Instituut voor Natuurwetenschappen (KBIN) / Institut Royal des Sciences Naturelles de Belgique (IRSN)), and the Institute of the National Parks of Belgian Congo (INPBC) (Instituut der Nationale Parken van Belgisch Congo (INPBC) / Institut des Parcs Nationaux du Congo (IPNC)), with additions from the British Museum (Natural History), London (BMNH) and the American Museum of Natural History, New York (AMNH) and an addenda section by V. Aellen, covering the bats in the collection of the Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle, Geneva (MHNG). Today, 50 years after the appearance of “The Bats of the Congo and of Rwanda and Burundi” by Hayman et al. (1966), the current authors deemed it timely to revisit this publication and bring it up to date, as this last half a century has brought a lot of new techniques, which yielded important changes to our views into the systematics and the taxonomic status of bats (order Chiroptera). Ten of the species recognized in the current study were not known to science in 1966. Some taxa were recognized as subspecies or synonym and were raised to full species status. In a few other cases, the taxon’s content remained the same, but the name needed to be changed due to priority rules. As correctly remarked by Bates et al. (2013: 313), the title of Hayman et al. (1966) might have been a bit misleading as “The Congo” did not cover the territory of “The Republic of Congo” [= Congo (Brazzaville)], but only the area that used to be a Belgian colony or mandate area: The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Rwanda and Burundi. Further on in the text, the acronym CRB will be used to refer to this area. As mentioned by Hayman et al. (1966: 1), the irst records of bats from the CRB were reported by Johnston (1884) from the area along the Congo River from its mouth to Bolobo. The river formed (and 2 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited still forms) an important route through Congo, as is also illustrated by more recent scientiic expeditions, e.g., the 1974–1975 Zaire River Expedition (Gallagher & Harrison 1977; 212 bats collected) and the 2009 and 2010 Congo River expeditions (in 2009 between Lisala and Kisangani and the “Boyekoli Ebale Congo” expedition in 2010 between Bumba and Kisangani; 594 bats; Gembu Tungaluna and Musaba, unpublished). The latter two were organized by the Congo2010 consortium, that consisted of the RMCA (Tervuren), the RBINS (Brussels), the Botanic Garden (Meise) and the University of Kisangani, with funding from the Belgian Federal Directorate general for Development and the Belgian Science Policy. A second, enormously important contribution to the knowledge of bats in the CRB was provided by the “American Museum Congo Expedition”, which started at Boma on 22 June 1909 and which took Herbert Lang and James P. Chapin to the northeastern part of the DRC, where they made collections in Poko (Bas-Uélé Province); Niangara, Faradje, Medje and Aba, in or near the Garamba National Park (HautUélé Province); Avakubi, near the Ituri River, Panga and Kisangani (Tshopo Province); and then back over Kinshasa, Boma and Matadi to Banana, where the expedition inally ended on 14 September 1915 (Osborn, 1919). They collected almost 800 bats and their data formed the basis for Allen et al.‘s “The American Museum Congo Expedition collection of Bats” (Allen et al. 1917). Allen (1917) recognized 68 forms, covering 65 different species, which were reduced to 56 by Koopman (1965). A further increase occurred during the 1930s to late 1950s, when major collections were made for the Institute of the National Parks of Belgian Congo in the National Parks of the eastern part of the CRB: Albert National Park (currently the Virunga National Park; ca 480 bats), the Garamba National Park (ca 600 bats), the Upemba National Park (ca 220 bats) and the Kagera National Park (currently the Akagera National Park in Rwanda; ca 170 bats). The results of these expeditions were reported by Schouteden (1934, 1935), Frechkop (1938, 1943, 1944, 1954) and Verschuren (1957). Henri Schouteden also published a number of papers on the mammals of the entire CRB area (Schouteden 1943, 1947, 1948). Although being an entomologist, Narcisse Leleup collected over 260 bats between 1948 and 1958 in the DRC provinces of Katanga, Kongo Central, Maniema and Kivu, primarily for their insect parasites (Jobling 1954; Leleup 1956). From the mid-1950s to the early 1960s, Anciaux de Faveaux made extensive collections in the Katanga area (currently provinces of Haut-Katanga, Haut-Lomami, Lualaba, Tanganyika; at least 1000 bats), which were followed in the mid-1960s by a collection from Rwanda (at least 50 bats). These resulted in a large number of publications, primarily on reproduction and parasites (Anciaux de Faveaux 1958, 1959– 1960, 1960a, 1960b, 1964, 1965, 1972, 1977, 1978a, 1978b, 1983; Benoit 1958a, 1958b; Fain 1972; Krampitz & Anciaux de Faveaux 1960). In the 1960s, the independence of the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi led to a diminished presence of Belgian biologists in the area, or at least of Belgian led expeditions, although individual collectors still sent material to museums abroad (with number of bats in brackets), e.g., Toon De Roo (443), P. Lootens (664 - from the 1950s until the 1990s), M.J. Celis and M. Lejeune (70 combined, 300 Lejeune only), but other nationals also became involved, e.g., P. Kunkel (for the Senckenberg Museum Frankfurt [SMF]; 48). In the 1970s, major collections were made by Lynn and Brian Robbins (Carnegie Museum [CM], United States National Museum [USNM]; 162), Michael Gallagher (Harrison Institute [formerly Harrison Zoological Museum - HZM]; 214), Frieder Meier (MHNG; 119), but also the irst African names started to appear: Tshinyenye (RMCA; 118) and Betu Nsankulu (RMCA; 128). In the 1990s there were major collections by Julian Kerbis Peterhans (Field Museum of Natural History [FMNH]; 50) and Bob Swanepoel (Ditsong National Museum of Natural History [formerly Transvaal Museum - TM]; 515). In the irst decade of the 21st century, a large collection was made by Alexandre Hassanin and 3 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) colleagues for the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle (MNHN; 150 bats). Additionally, there was also the startup of the collection at the University of Kisangani (UNIKIS) by prof. Séraphin Ifuta (presently University of Kinshasa [UNIKIN]), which is currently still being expanded by material collected during ield trips under the direction of the Congolese co-authors. At UNIKIS, a Centre de Surveillance de la Biodiversité (CSB, http://centresurveillancebiodiversite.org/) was created under the directorship of prof. Dudu Akaibe to ensure the long-term surveillance and management of how the lora and fauna of the Congo River rainforest evolves. As head of the department of terrestrial vertebrates, Prof. Gembu Tungaluna is responsible for the bat-related projects. Of special interest are also the collections from Tandala and Yalosemba (1979; 215 bats - Breman et al. 1999) and Kikwit (1995; 538 bats - Van Cakenberghe et al. 2000) where, in the aftermath of the Ebola epidemics, expeditions were set up in search for the reservoir species for this virus, and of which the specimens were primarily deposited in the collections of the CM, MHNG, MSB (Museum of Southwestern Biology), RMCA and USNM. As indicated in Fig. 1, the material included in the current study covers almost the entire DRC, although there are still a few areas that are underrepresented, e.g., Fig. 1. Capture localities for all bats. The symbols represent: yellow (H): records included in Hayman et al. (1966), and brown (V): newly added records. Other coloured pins represent type specimens: red (H): holotype, blue (P): paratype or paralectotype (for further details, see text). 4 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited the southern part of Kwango Province (former Bandundu Province), the central and northern part of Lualaba Province (western part of the former Katanga Province), the western part of Equateur Province, Lomami and Sankuru Provinces (former Kasai Oriental Province), and especially the central area covered by Tshuapa, Sankuru, Kasai and Mai Ndombe Provinces, where the Parc National de la Salonga (North and South) remains a blank area. This seems a bit strange as most of the other National Parks were already extensively surveyed from the 1930s to the 1950s (see above), but the Salonga National Park was only created in 1970 and is the only park situated in the Central African Rainforest, which is impenetrable and is only accessible along the rivers running through it. Its visibility of less than 100 m also makes it very dificult to assess any occurrence of wildlife in the park. Jacques Verschuren collected 48 bats in Burundi in 1976 for the RBINS (Verschuren 1980). A major collection (327 bats) from the country was made by P.L. Niort in the late 1960s–early 1970s and deposited in the MHNG (Niort 1970). At the end of the 1970s Heinz Stephan collected 70 bats for the SMF, and at the beginning of the 1980s, Danny Meirte (RMCA) made another important collection of 156 bats. In the 1990s Julian Kerbis Peterhans (22), L. Davenport (33) and Jay L. Udelhoven (33) made collections for the FMNH. Besides the already mentioned Rwandese collection from the Akagera National Park made for the INPBC and the material collected by Anciaux de Faveaux, major contributions were provided by Alexandre Fain (late 1940s to mid 1950s; 108 bats), but primarily by a number of expeditions by the RMCA (Danny Meirte; 171 bats) and the University of Antwerp in the early 1980s (Baeten et al. 1984; 2102 bats). Hayman et al. (1966: 77) reported on 8567 specimens belonging to 113 species. The additional material that has been traced for this study augmented these numbers to 20 231 bats belonging to 136 species. For the current study not all of the specimens were (re-)examined by the authors. This was only done for the material in the collection of UNIKIS, most of the specimens from Rwanda (Baeten et al. 1984), Kikwit (Van Cakenberghe et al. 2000) and for speciic groups: Epomophorus (Claessen & De Vree 1990, 1991), Nycteris (Van Cakenberghe & De Vree 1985, 1993, 1999) and Pipistrellus / Eptesicus / Neoromicia / Hypsugo (Van Cakenberghe, unpublished). The current study follows the structure used in Hayman et al. (1966), with the exception of two extra sections (Material and methods and Annotated species list) and the removal of the index section. The order in which the various taxa are presented follows the currently recognized view on chiropteran taxonomy. For an overview, we refer to the “Nominal list of bats of the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi (CRB) region” section. For each of the species, we provide the current name, and in the synonyms list we only include the original name and (preixed by an asterisk) the names as used by Hayman et al. (1966). For a complete list of synonyms, we refer to ACR (2016). The systematics follows Simmons (2005) and “Mammals of Africa volume IV” (Happold & Happold 2013), unless explicitly mentioned in the annonated catalog section. However, due to the dificulties in assessing the subspeciic boundaries of the various taxa, we did not distinguish any subspecies. Since the days of Hayman et al. (1966), taxonomic techniques have evolved, leading to the discovery and/ or recognition of new species. Where morphological comparisions and univariate statistical tests were the state-of-the-art techniques, the rise of computers in the 1970s-1980s led to multivariate statistical analyses. Unfortunately, these were not always capable of distinguishing very similar or cryptic species (Baker & Bradley 2006), and, therefore, other methods, looking at more fundamental building blocks of life (biochemical techniques), were investigated such as karyotypes, electrophoresis and in recent years DNA sequencing. Important new techniques, such as molecular phylogenetics and phylogeographic analyses, are also contributing to our current understanding of species and their distribution patterns. However, these biochemical techniques cannot stand on their own (Ruedas et al. 2000), and the collection 5 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) of tissues should be backed by continued collecting of voucher specimens to substantiate their identity (Patterson 2002). Zachos et al. (2013: 1) discourage species splitting based on gene trees inferred from mitochondrial DNA only, as uncritical acceptance of such new species might create an unnecessary burden on the conservation of biodiversity. As already pointed out by Hayman et al. (1966: 3), the central geographic position of the CRB region in Africa and its immense size makes it a crossroad for bat species from all over the continent. Konaté & Linsenmaier (2010: 18) marked the eastern parts of the DRC provinces of Ituri, Nord-Kivu, Sud-Kivu and Tanganyika and the western parts of Rwanda and Burundi as one of the world’s biodiversity hotspots: the Eastern Afromontane hotspot (see also Ceballos & Ehrlich 2006). Some of the species occurring in the CRB area have an almost pan-African distribution (e.g., Nycteris thebaica, Pipistrellus rueppellii) whereas others were found in a very restricted area – in a number of cases only at the type locality, e.g., Rhinolophus hilli, R. kahuzi, R. ruwenzorii, R. willardi, Chaerephon gallagheri, Mops niangarae. With the exception of the two molossid species, all of these are only found in the eastern DRC endemic hotspot as deined by Herkt et al. (2015: igs 3–4). In between these extreme distribution ranges, there are species which are common in sub-Saharan Africa (e.g., Eidolon helvum, Hipposideros caffer, Taphozous mauritanus, Nycteris hispida, Chaerephon pumilus, Mops condylurus, Scotophilus dinganii, Neoromicia nana), others are found primarily in western Africa (e.g., Hipposideros abae, Rhinolophus alcyone, Myonycteris daubentonii), eastern Africa (e.g., Epomophorus minimus, Rhinolophus eloquens, Tadarida fulminans), Southern Africa (e.g., Plerotes anchietae, Rhinolophus swinnyi, Cloeotis percivali, Hypsugo anchietae, Laephotis botswanae) or Northern Africa (e.g., Taphozous nudiventris). Some of the species only occur in the African forest areas (e.g., Epomops franqueti, Hypsignathus monstrosus, Megaloglossus woermanni, Saccolaimus peli, Nycteris arge, Glauconycteris superba), and some even only in the Central African forest (e.g., Casinycteris argynnis). Hayman et al. (1966: 3) particularly pointed to the enormous extent of the tropical forest belt contributing to the importance of the CRB area. However, commercial logging and expansion of farming has made the Congo rainforest one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world (http://interesting-africa-facts.com/Africa-Landforms/CongoRainforest-Facts.html). The apparent rarity of some of the species reported in this paper might be the result of small geographic ranges, limited habitat breadth, low local population density, or simply a sampling artefact linked to insuficient sampling effort, inadequate methodology (mist nets, canopy nets, harp traps, …), or differential species detectability (Meyer et al. 2014: 114). In most cases, the exact reason for this is currently unknown, and might possibly only be resolved once more specimens are collected, which means that extensive ield work is still a necessity, even in times where people think that everything can be solved from behind a computer screen. Did we cover all of the known specimens/species? Probably not. Are all of the included specimens correctly identiied? Unlikely. What we wanted to achieve was to provide an inventory of the CRB specimens that are available in collections worldwide that can be used for further research, and we certainly encourage other/local researchers to investigate these collections and verify the data provided here. The bottom line, however, is: you cannot deliver good, reliable, reproducible science if you cannot conirm the identity of the animals you are (or have been) working on. This is especially important for bat-related studies, as these animals have recently been recognized as potential carriers of pathogenic and infectious agents that can pose threats to humans: e.g., rabies (Adedeji et al. 2010), ebola (Leirs et al. 1999; Leroy et al. 2005, 2009; Grard et al. 2011; Hayman et al. 2012; Leendertz 2016), see also Wibbelt et al. (2010), Newman et al. (2011), Schneeberger & Voigt (2015), Ranjan et al. (2016). Moreover, Han et al. (2016: 6) illustrate that the northeastern part of the DRC forms an African hotspot related to the 6 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited number of ilovirus-positive bat species. To substantiate these studies, we stress the importance of the collection of voucher specimens and their safekeeping for future generations of scientists (Rocha et al. 2014; Tsang et al. 2015). However, as mentioned by Paul Racey (in Wibbelt et al. 2010: 440): “… every effort must be taken to avoid a reductionist approach to newly described infectious diseases and that all factors associated with the emergence of infectious diseases must be considered so that bats do not simply become targets for persecution and eradication.” To which we could add that collecting bats for the sole purpose of increasing collection sizes isn’t a good practice either, and hopefully this paper might contribute to a more eficient use of already established collections. Material and methods The base for the current publication was formed by the catalog data in Hayman et al. (1966), with additional information from the catalog records from the RMCA and RBINS. We also searched online catalogs (e.g., http://vertnet.org/, http://arctos.database.museum/SpecimenSearch.cfm and http://www. gbif.org/) and consulted the online catalogs of additional museums (for details see the “Summary table of museum specimens” section below). Further information was obtained from Ammerman et al.

The supplementary material included with this paper consists of a zip ile which contains htm iles and a separate directory, which contains pin symbols. The htm iles need to be placed in a directory called “c:\CongoBatMaps” and the pins (*.png) in “c:\CongoBatMaps\pins”. The zip ile also contains some additional htm iles for the specimens which were not identiied to the species level. The pins on these maps (as on Fig. 1) are coded as follows: yellow (H): records included in Hayman et al. (1966), and brown (V): newly added records. Other coloured pins represent type specimens: red (H): holotype, red (L): lectotype, blue (P): paratype or paralectotype, and green (T): topotype. To be able to separate multiple specimens from (almost) the same locality, the irst specimen is plotted at the correct coordinates and subsequent specimens are moved slightly to the north. For each of the pins, the following information is shown (when available): museum acronym and number, age and sex, sort of type and the original name, current name, country, locality, coordinates, altitude, collector and collection date. In the lower left hand corner of the map, there is a bat icon which contains the name of the species and the version number. In the “Annotated Species List”, the species name header is followed by a reference (Fig. xx) to the distribution maps. For each species, two maps are included: one (“A, C or E”) shows the distribution within the CRB area. Each symbol on the map represents a locality where the species has been collected. The blue squares represent localities where the species was already reported from by Hayman et al. (1966), the red dots are new localities. 7 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) To place the species occurring from the CRB in context, a Species Distribution Modelled (SDM) map (“B, D or F”) was created using the point data from ACR (2016). MaxEnt was used to estimate the PanAfrican distribution of each species (Phillips et al. 2006), based on 19 climate variables from the World Clim (Hijmans et al. 2005). Each species output was clipped using a buffered minimum convex polygon of 500 km (Kremen et al. 2008) resulting in the solid red areas on the map. The inal step was to draw subjectively a suggested range extent of the species combining the point localities, SDM clipped output and the Sayre et al. (2013) bioclimatic zones, resulting in the hatched area. When examining the SDM output maps, we are aware that most make sense, while others might look doubtful. One of the major reasons for this is that one needs to have at least 10 separate localities to generate a reliable map, which for a number of species simply is not possible (e.g., Rhinolophus kahuzi: only known from the type locality). In a few cases, we also found that the various models we tested did not include areas where the species was actually collected by one of the authors. We, therefore, would like to highlight a law in some maps who use predicted species distribution models to show areas of high species richnesses (e.g., Herkt et al. 2015, 2017; Han et al. 2016). Areas may be shown as potentially Fig. 2. A. Vegetation map of the CRB. B.

Colour codes used in Figure 2C (all modiied after Sayre et al. 2013). 8 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited containing areas of high species richness and important, but no evidence of any specimens exist. Likewise, areas of high species richness based on specimens, may similarly be underrepresented in the richness maps where these localities do not conform to the underlying fundamental niche assumptions for species distribution models. SDM and the species richness derived from these should be used to prioritize where ield veriication needs to take place (test the model). Any policies derived from such should only be created or implemented after veriication has taken place. Holt et al. (2013) identiied 11 zoogeographic realms and 20 regions globally. Within Africa and its associated islands four zoogeographic realms – Saharo-Arabian, Afrotropical, Madagascan and Oceania [Reunion and islands eastwards] – were identiied. The Afrotropical realm was further divided into two zoogreographical regions – Guineo-Congolian and Afrotropical. Africa contains ive zoogeographical regions. The CRB area contains two of these zoogeographic regions, with the majority of the CRB containing a signiicant portion of the Guineo-Congolian zoogeographic region, and to a lesser extent Afrotropical region. Figure 2 shows an overview of the various vegetation types occurring in the CRB region (A), in Africa (B), the African bioclimatic zones (C). Note that none of these maps include human land use change – if the true extent of forest is considered, approximately ⅓ of the area is expected to be destroyed. These maps represent the status of about 100 to 150 years ago or a theoretical current status, if there were no humans. The current status most probably would include a much wider ‘new’ Savanna Grassland habitat, due to the removal of forest, either for agriculture or urbanization (charcoal industry). This might be the reason why we may be recording more Savanna species in the CRB. Furthermore, given the fact that we report on specimens that were collected over a timespan of more than a century, the vegetation type indicated on the map for any given locality might be different from the one at the actual time the specimen was collected or from the current situation. The fact that a species has occurred in a speciic locality at a speciic moment in time does not imply that this is currently still the case. As the African vegetation zones have been shifting over the past century, we decided to use the Bioclimates data (Sayre et al. 2013: 6) as we suspect this to present a more stable background, although we cannot ignore the potential inluence of global change.

The classical subdivision of the order Chiroptera into two suborders, Megachiroptera and Microchiroptera, has undergone quite an evolution over the last decennia, which resulted in a rearrangement into the suborders Yinpterochiroptera and Yangochiroptera (see ACR 2016: 11–13 for a discussion). As the content of these suborders has changed rather frequently, Hutcheon & Kirsch (2006: 1) suggested two new subordinal names: Vespertilioniformes (for the group including Emballonuridae, Nycteridae, and the ‘yangochiropterans’) and Pteropodiformes (for the taxon comprised of Craseonycteridae, Hipposideridae, Megadermatidae, Rhinolophidae, Rhinopomatidae, and Pteropodidae). However, if the standardization of the nomenclature suggested by Alonso-Zarazaga (2005) is followed, ‘-formes’ indicates ordinal level, while the subordinal sufix should be ‘-formi’, leading to the suborder names Vespertilioniformi and Pteropodiformi. Family Pteropodidae Gray, 1821 * Pteropidae Gray, 1821: 299. For the correct formation on the family name, see Handley (1980). The most recent suprageneric division of the Pteropodidae is the one presented by Almeida et al. (2016: 83), who recognize two subfamilies with representatives on the African continent: Rousettinae (subdivided into seven tribes: Rousettini: Rousettus; Eonycterini: Eonycteris; Scotonycterini: Scotonycteris, Casinycteris; Epomophorini: Epomophorus, Epomops, Hypsignathus, Nanonycteris, Micropteropus; Stenonycterini: Stenonycteris; Myonycterini: Myonycteris [including Lissonycteris], Megaloglossus; Plerotini: Plerotes), and Eidolinae (Eidolon). Subfamily Eidolinae Almeida, Giannini & Simmons, 2016 Genus Eidolon Rainesque, 1815 Eidolon helvum (Kerr, 1792) Fig. 3A–B Vespertilio vampyrus helvus Kerr, 1792: 91. * Eidolon helvum (Kerr, 1792). Hayman et al. (1966: 74) reported a total of 347 specimens from almost all over the DRC. The 560 specimens we found do not lead to a large extension of the range, but we do have some records from Rwanda and Burundi and from the southern part of Haut Kantanga Province. On the overall distribution, Thomas & Henry (2013a) show an almost uniform distribution south of the Sahara, with the exception of the drier areas of NE and SW Africa. Our assement of the distribution seems to suggest a split between a northern area and a southern/eastern area, which runs through the DRC provinces of Tanganyika, HautLomami and Lualaba. Whether this is a real gap or only a result of the lack of voucher specimens cannot be determined at this time. 11 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Subfamily Rousettinae K. Andersen, 1912 Tribe Epomophorini Gray, 1866 Genus Epomophorus Bennett, 1836 Epomophorus anselli Bergmans & Van Strien, 2004 Fig. 3C–D Epomophorus anselli Bergmans & Van Strien, 2004: 258. Nesi (2012: 179) reported a single specimen of this species from Kitombongo (Upemba National Park, Haut-Lomami Province). Bergmans (2013) mentions this species from two (possibly three) localities in Malawi and one in southwestern Tanzania. Based on these data, the SDM map suggests that E. anselli might occur from southeastern DRC over northeastern Zambia to southwestern Tanzania and northern Malawi. Epomophorus crypturus Peters, 1852 Fig. 3E–F * Epomophorus crypturus Peters, 1852: 26. * Epomophorus gambianus (Ogilby, 1835): 100. Some authors, e.g., Nesi et al. (2011: 547), consider E. crypturus and E. gambianus to differ at the subspeciic level only. However, they admit that several recent classiications suggest they differ at the species level. Claessen & De Vree (1990: 180) indicate that E. gambianus only occurs in the tropical savanna and woodland zones from Senegal to the Central African Republic, Sudan and Ethiopia. E. crypturus, on the other hand, only occurs in Zambia, southern Tanzania and southern DRC. Nesi et al. (2011: 547) furthermore add Mozambique and eastern RSA. As all of the E. gambianus specimens mentioned by Hayman et al. (1966: 23, map 6) are from the southernmost part of the DRC, these should be assigned to E. crypturus. The distribution map shows that all of the specimens currently assigned to E. crypturus are from the provinces of Haut-Katanga, Haut-Lomami and Lualaba, with one exception: RMCA 31557, a subadult female from Luluabourg (= Kananga) in Kasaï-Central Province. This specimen might need to be re-examined. Epomophorus labiatus (Temminck, 1837) Fig. 4A–B Pteropus labiatus Temminck, 1837: 83. * Epomophorus anurus Heuglin, 1864: 12. Bergmans (1988) and Claessen & De Vree (1991) considered E. anurus to be a synonym of E. labiatus. Bergmans (1997: 72), however, pointed out that some of the E. labiatus specimens identiied by Claessen & De Vree (1991) might be erroneously assigned to this species, and that their material included multiple species (e.g., E. anselli Bergmans & Van Strien, 2004). See also Happold (2013a: 245), who indicated that even more species might be present. The distribution map indicates that E. labiatus is primarily found along the eastern borders of the DRC and in Rwanda and Burundi, but also that there are some records from the more central parts of the DRC. Specimen RMCA 31127 from Léopoldville (= Kinshasa) probably needs reinvestigation. However, the SDM map indicates that other labiatus specimens have been found in Cameroon, Nigeria and Ghana, which might suggest that this species might also occur in the western part of the DRC. Epomophorus minimus Claessen & De Vree, 1991 Fig. 4C–D Epomophorus minimus Claessen & De Vree, 1991: 216. 12 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 3.

He also reported it from a second locality near by: Luena. Happold (2013b: 248) indicated that the species is known from approximately 40 localities in northeastern Africa, in Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya and Uganda, which are at quite some distance from these DRC localities. Re-investigation of the MNHN specimens might, therefore, be necessary to conirm their identity. Epomophorus minor Dobson, 1880 Fig. 4E–F Epomophorus minor Dobson, 1880: 715. * Epomophorus labiatus minor (Dobson, 1880). Happold (2013a) followed Claessen & De Vree (1991) in considering minor to be a junior synonym of Epomophorus labiatus. She also pointed out that Bergmans (1997) was strongly opposed to this, as he pointed out a number errors concerning the E. labiatus specimens used by Claessen & De Vree (1991). The distribution map shows that the specimens from the eastern part from the DRC it well with the major (eastern African) distribution area of the species. The specimen from Congo da Lemba (RMCA 408a, a juvenile male) does seem to it with a potential distribution along the Angolan coast, which, however, is not yet supported by material from that country (ACR 2016). Epomophorus wahlbergi (Sundevall, 1846) Fig. 5A–B Pteropus Wahlbergi Sundevall, 1846: 118. * Epomophorus wahlbergi haldemani (Halowell, 1846): 52. Bergmans (1988: 134) discussed the status of the two subspecies of E. wahlbergi and concluded that the size variations are of a clinal nature and the recognition of subspecies does not seem to be appropriate, a view which is also followed by Happold (2013c). The records in Hayman et al. (1966: 24) were primarily from the southern half of the DRC, with two specimens from Rutshuru (Nord-Kivu Province - INPBC V1346 and V1636), and one specimen from Ibembo (Bas-Uélé Province - RMCA 20278). The additional material we report on, is also from the southern part of the DRC, but also from the Nord-Kivu and South-Kivu Provinces, as well as from Burundi and Rwanda. The locality of a further central Congolese specimen (RMCA 18844b from Bokungu in Tshuapa Province) is rather unexpected, as Bergmans (1988: 131) stated that E. wahlbergi is not found moist forests. Genus Epomops Gray, 1870 Epomops dobsonii (Bocage, 1889) Fig 5C–D Epomophorus Dobsonii Bocage, 1889: 1. * Epomops dobsoni (Bocage, 1889) Bergmans (1989: 89) suggested that a number of cranial characters (e.g., the pterygoid wing morphology, the post dental palate and palatal ridges) of E. dobsonii are rather atypical for an Epomops and show more resemblance with Epomophorus, suggesting that the original generic assignment by Bocage might be correct. He nevertheless kept the species in Epomops. However, very recently a phylogenetic study 14 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 4. Distribution maps. A–B.

Pan-African distribution. 15 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) by Almeida et al. (2016: 83) showed that dobsonii is most closely related to Epomophorus wahlbergi and these authors transferred the species to the genus Epomophorus. Distributionwise, E. dobsonii was reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 24, map 9) from the extreme southern part of the DRC (provinces of Haut-Katanga and Lualaba). Further material from these provinces is reported in this paper, but also some records from Haut-Lomami Province (near the Upemba National Park), and from Kasende (MCZ 31738; near Kananga in Kasaï-Central Province). The specimens from Rwanda (Shangi Schad, RMCA 85.006-M-0463 and Rubona, RMCA 16037) extend the distribution range of the species. Bergmans (1979), who already reported on the latter specimen, indicated that this extension was not beyond the already known vegetation types: mopane and miombo woodlands, and the Central African rain forest block. Epomops franqueti (Tomes, 1860) Fig. 5E–F Epomophorus franqueti Tomes, 1860: 54. * Epomops franqueti franqueti (Tomes, 1860). Bergmans (1989: 113) could not ind any differences between E. f. franqueti and the West African E. f. strepitans K. Andersen, 1910 and considered the latter as a synonym of the nominate form. Hayman et al. (1966: 24, map 10) provided records from all over the DRC, with the exception of the former Katanga Province. From that province, we report one specimen: RMCA 10514 from Mulongo, in the current Tanganyika Province. The Pan-African distribution of the species indicates that is primarily a forest species, but with some occurrences in savanna areas. Genus Hypsignathus H. Allen, 1862 Hypsignathus monstrosus H. Allen, 1862 Fig. 6A–B H[ypsignathus] monstrosus H. Allen, 1862 (for 1861): 157. * Hypsignathus monstrosus H. Allen, 1862. The distribution of this large bat is very similar to that of Epomops franqueti. Also, this species occurs over almost the entire DRC, with the exception of the former Katanga Province. The additional specimens we were able to track ill in the spaces between the records reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 25, map 11), but do not expand the distribution area reported by these authors. Genus Micropteropus Matschie, 1899 Micropteropus intermedius Hayman, 1963 Fig. 6C–D * Micropteropus intermedius Hayman, 1963: 100. Hayman et al. (1966: 27, map 13) reported two specimens belonging to this species, one from Thysville (= Mbanza-Ngungu) and one from Luluabourg (= Kananga). One additional specimen was reported by Bergmans (1989: 101) from “Banana/Netonna”. Here, we add two further specimens from Luluabourg. All of these localities are relatively close to the Angolan border, where the holotype was collected. As indicated by Bergmans (1989: 103) a number of these specimens were originally assigned to other, similar-sized epomophorine species (e.g., M. pusillus or Epomophorus grandis [not yet reported from 16 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 5. Distribution maps. A–B. Epomophorus wahlbergi (Sundevall, 1846). C–D. Epomops dobsonii (Bocage, 1889). E–F. Epomops franqueti (Tomes, 1860). A, C, E. Distribution in the CRB area. B, D, F.

Therefore, we cannot exclude that some of the specimens reported here as M. pusillus might belong to the current species. Micropteropus pusillus (Peters, 1867) Fig. 6E–F Epomophorus pusillus Peters, 1867: 870. * Micropteropus pusillus (Peters, 1867). Compared with Hayman et al. (1966: map 14), the distribution for this species has been extended in the eastern part of the DRC into Burundi, and in the southwestern part of the DRC, but in the northwestern part of the country it seems to be lacking. The specimens from Boende seem a bit out of place, as Thomas & Henry (2013b: 271) mentioned that it avoids the Congolian rainforest except around its edges. Monfort (1992: 142) believes this species occurs in Rwanda, based on a reference to “RuandaUrundi” by Schouteden (1947) and the locality “Congo-Nil-Aka” mentioned by Hayman et al. (1966: 27 - RBINS 13522). Monfort claims this locality to refer to “Nil-Akagera”, which is in Rwanda and not in Burundi, but Hayman et al. (1966: 81) provide coordinates for “Congo-Nil-Akka”, 04°35′ N, 29°45′ E, which put it in the Garamba National Park on the border with South Sudan. Genus Nanonycteris Matschie, 1899 Nanonycteris veldkampii (Jentink, 1888) Fig. 7B Epomophorus veldkampii Jentink, 1887: 51. Bergmans (1989: 147) referred to Frechkop (1954), who mentioned two N. veldkampii specimens from Lusinga (Upemba National Park, Haut Lomami Province). These immature specimens were re-identiied by Hayman et al. (1966: 28) as Plerotes anchietae (Seabra, 1900). The Paris museum, however, has three N. veldkampii specimens collected in the DRC by Nicolas Nesi, Blaise Kadjo and Christiane Denys in May 2010. Unfortunately, no speciic locality for these specimens was available. The distribution map presented by Fahr (2013a: 278) indicates that this species primarily occurs in West Africa, from Guinea to western Cameroon, but there is also a record from Bangui in the Central African Republic. Based on this information, we can assume that N. veldkampii will occur in the northwestern part of the DRC. Tribe Myonycterini Lawrence & Novick, 1963 Genus Megaloglossus Pagenstecher, 1885 Megaloglossus woermanni Pagenstecher, 1885 Fig. 7C–D * Megaloglossus woermanni Pagenstecher, 1885: 245. * Megaloglossus woermanni prigoginei Hayman, 1966: 26. In Hayman et al. (1966), Hayman described a separate subspecies for nine skins and skulls collected by Dr. A. Prigogine in the former Kivu Province and one additional specimen collected by Mr. Schepens in Lundjulu (currently in Nord-Kivu Province). This subspecies differed from the West African nominate subspecies in larger forearm length and skull size, and darker colour. Bergmans & Van Bree (1972) [in Bergmans 1997] found that the forearm length and the greatest length of the skull of the holotype of M. woermanni from Gabon fell within the range given by Hayman for 18 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 6.

Distributionwise, Hayman et al. (1966: 26, map 12) reported this species from the northern part of the DRC. The additional records we report extend its presence in the southern part of the country, in the provinces Congo Central, Kwango, Kwilu, Kasaï and Kasaï-Oriental. The southernmost record is RMCA 33065 from the Kakanda Cave near Likasi (former Jadotville). Its occurrence so far from the modelled distribution makes it a bit doubtful, but the record was mentioned by Bergmans (1997: 60), who thereby conirmed its identiication and locality information. Genus Myonycteris Matschie, 1899 Myonycteris angolensis (Bocage, 1898) Fig. 7E–F Cynonycteris Angolensis Bocage, 1898: 133, 138. * Rousettus (Lissonycteris) angolensis (Bocage, 1898). The lack of acoustical orientation (as only species with Rousettus s.l.), their different mode of locomotion, and a number of characters which more closely resembles those of Eidolon and other pteropodids than of Rousettus, already made Novick (1958) [in Aellen & Brosset 1968] and Lawrence & Novick (1963) conclude that the subgeneric status of Lissonycteris should be raised to full generic status. Lawrence & Novick (1963: 4) furthermore postulated from Myonycteris specimens stored in alcohol that the posture of their wings in life is like that of Lissonycteris. This character, together with the slender rostrum, made them propose to include the two genera in a myonycterine section. The narrowing of the anterior palate (which results in the upper tooth rows bending inwards) and the relative heaviness of P4 reported by Bergmans (1980: 179) conirmed this grouping, as did the very similar karyotype (only a different polymorphism in pair 1) reported by Haiduk et al. (1981: 223). Genetic sequence analyses by Agnarsson et al. (2011) and Almeida et al. (2011) both conirmed the close relationship between Lissonycteris and Myonycteris, and led Nesi et al. (2012: 133) to conclude that Lissonycteris should be considered a synonym of Myonycteris. The distribution of M. angolensis across CRB is split into three areas: one in Kongo Central Province in the extreme west, a second in the extreme southeastern part of the DRC (Haut-Katanga and Haut-Lomami Provinces) and a third along the eastern border of the DRC, extending into Rwanda and Burundi. More recently, the species has also been collected in the Kisangani area (Tshopo Province). RMCA 9904a, reported from Kabalo (Tanganyika Province) by Hayman et al. (1966: 30), was actually collected in the foothills of the Ruwenzori Mountains (Wim Wendelen, pers. comm.). Myonycteris relicta Bergmans, 1980 Fig. 8A–B Myonycteris relicta Bergmans, 1980: 171, 173. One specimen, identiied as belonging to this species by Norberto Giannini, was collected in the Kasaï Province (Beyi - Kalonji). Taylor (2013: 274) reported it from the coastal forest mosaic from southeastern Kenya to southeastern Tanzania and from the Zambezian woodland in eastern Zimbabwe. The Durban Natural Science Museum also has a specimen from Mozambique (ACR 2016: 998). Based on these data, the SDM map shows that the species might potentially occur in southern Uganda and in the border area between the DRC and Tanzania, and that the currently reported locality might be too far to the west. 20 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 7.

Bergmans (1976) reviewed the genus Myonycteris and referred to Eisentraut (1963) and Brosset (1966a, b), who suggested that wroughtoni should be considered a subspecies of M. torquata, a view that was followed by Hayman & Hill (1971), Jones (1971) and Koopman (1975, 1994). Bergmans (1976: 203–204) found that wroughtoni differs from torquata mainly in its somewhat larger greatest skull and forearms lengths and by a larger relative M2 length, and concluded that these differences are insuficient to warrant a subspeciic division. Hayman et al. (1966: 29, map 16) reported a total of nine specimens, all from the northeastern part of the DRC: provinces of Bas-Uélé, Haut-Uélé and Nord-Kivu. We were able to ind data for 583 specimens from almost all over the DRC. The map provided by Thomas & Henry (2013c: 275) is quite different as they do not mention M. torquata from the provinces of Tshopo and Tshuapa. The reason for this is probably the extremely recent nature of the collections: from 2010 onwards, although the species was previously reported from Kisangani (Tshopo Province) by Ifuta et al. (1987: 113). Tribe Plerotini Bergmans, 1997 Genus Plerotes K. Andersen, 1910 Plerotes anchietae (Seabra, 1900) Fig. 8E–F Epomophorus anchietæ Seabra, 1900: 116. * Plerotes anchietae (Seabra, 1900). Hayman et al. (1966: 29) mention three specimens from the DRC, two from Lusinga (RBINS 10685 and 10686) and one from Panda (RMCA 26210). The latter specimen, however, was examined by Bergmans (1989: 147), who found it to be an immature Epomophorus (probably minor). Bergmans (1989: 147) also referred to another specimen in the RMCA collection that was supposed to be from Likasi (former Jadotville), but indicated that this bat could not be traced. The information provided on the museum’s holdings accessed through Wim Wendelen did not mention any specimen from Likasi either. Tribe Rousettini K.

Happold (2013d: 290) distinguishes four African subspecies in R. aegyptiacus, of which leachii occurs from NE DRC to Ethiopia and southwards to South Africa, as well as on the islands of Pemba, Zanzibar and Maia. A second subspecies, unicolor (Gray, 1870), occurs from Senegal to Cameroon, Bioko Island, and southwards to Angola. Bergmans (1994: 91) indicates that in leachii, a weaker skull and dentition, as compared to the typical subspecies, justiies the separation as a subspecies, but he also indicates that the variation within leachii is very large and that it would be worth examining a larger series from over its entire distribution area. Hayman & Hill (1971: 12) furthermore mention that the morphological 22 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 8. Distribution maps. A–B.

Pan-African distribution. 23 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) and geographic limits of aegyptiacus and leachii are not yet clear, and intergrading may occur in the equatorial zone. The distribution information provided by Hayman et al. (1966: 30, map 17) suggested that R. aegyptiacus only occurred along the eastern border of the DRC (Ituri, Nord- and Sud-Kivu Provinces) and in the extreme south (Haut-Katanga Province) and the extreme west (Kongo Central Province). However, RBINS 12932 and 12933, reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 30) and Bergmans (1994: 90) from Kivu, were actually from Buta (Bas-Uélé Province; Tom Geerinckx, pers. comm.). More recently collected specimens further extend the occurrence of this species to the west of the DRC (Kisangani, Boende). These records indicate that two subspecies might occur in CRB: leachii in the eastern part of the DRC and in Rwanda and Burundi, and unicolor in the western part of the country. The subspeciic assignment of the specimens from the intermediairy localities remains uncertain. Tribe Scotonycterini Bergmans, 1997 Genus Casinycteris Thomas, 1910 Casinycteris argynnis Thomas, 1910 Fig. 9C–D * Casinycteris argynnis Thomas, 1910: 111. Hayman et al. (1966: 21, map 1) only mentioned three specimens from Irangi, Stanleyville and Medje in the northeastern part of the DRC and one further unnumbered and unmapped specimen from Luluabourg in the former Kasai Province. Meirte (1983) and Bergmans (1991: ig 4) already expanded its distribution in the DRC further to the west, and Hassanin et al. (2015: 198) indicated that C. argynnis is endemic to the Congo Basin, from southeastern Cameroon and eastern Gabon in the west, across southwestern Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo and all provinces of the DRC, except Bas-Congo, to the Mitumba Mountains in eastern DRC. The latter, however, doesn’t seem to be substantiated entirely by specimens we were able to trace. Genus Scotonycteris Matschie, 1894 Scotonycteris bergmansi Hassanin et al., 2015 Fig. 9E–F Scotonycteris bergmansi Hassanin, Khouider, Gembu, Goodman, Kadjo, Nesi, Pourrut, Nakouné & Bonillo, 2015: 206. * Scotonycteris zenkeri Matschie, 1894: 202. Hassanin et al. (2015) reviewed the Scotonycterini tribe, which contained four species: Scotonycteris zenkeri Matschie, 1894, Casinycteris argynnis Thomas, 1910, C. campomaanensis Hassanin, 2014, and C. ophiodon (Pohle, 1943). Their analyses of cytochrome b and nuclear DNA revealed that S. zenkeri should be split up into four clades representing three species: the extralimital (to CRB) S. zenkeri and S. occidentalis Hayman, 1947, and S. bergmansi Hassanin et al., 2015 occurring in the rainforests of Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Republic of Congo, southern Central African Republic, and eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. Hassanin et al. (2015) also found suficient differences between the population from the western part of the distribution area (Gabon to Central African Republic) and the eastern part of the DRC to recognize two subspecies: the western S. b. bergmansi and the eastern S. b. congoensis Hassanin et al., 2015. Hayman et al. (1966: 21) reported this species (as S. zenkeri) from Beni and Kiloboze (with the erroneous number RMCA 3145), in the extreme eastern part of the DRC. The new records extend the occurrence of 24 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 9. Distribution maps. A–B. Rousettus aegyptiacus (E.

Kipalu (2009) reported a specimen of S. zenkeri from near Mbanza-Ngungu (Kongo Central Province), but no details were given on voucher specimens. Tribe Stenonycterini Nesi, Kadjo, Pourrut, Shongo, Cruaud & Hassanin, 2012 Genus Stenonycteris Gray, 1870 Stenonycteris lanosus (Thomas, 1906) Fig. 10A–B Rousettus lanosus Thomas, 1906: 137. *Rousettus (Stenonycteris) lanosus Thomas, 1906. The separation of Stenonycteris from Rousettus was already suggested by Leche (1921) and Kingdon (1974) [in Bergmans (1994: 111)], but was only proven by genetic sequence analyses (Juste B. et al. 1999; Almeida et al. 2011; Nesi et al. 2012). Using cytochrome b sequences, Nesi et al. (2012) found that the genus Rousettus was paraphyletic, and that Stenonycteris should be considered as a separate genus, even constituting its own tribe: Stenonycterini. Hayman et al. (1966: 20, map 18) reported this species from the Kivu Province in the eastern part of the DRC. The additional specimens reported here are also mainly from the Nord- and Sud-Kivu Provinces, with extensions into Rwanda and Burundi. The only outlier is RMCA 36250 from Tshibasha, near Kananga (Kasaï-Central Province). The SDM map shows that this specimen is the westernmost representative of the species, but it also shows that the distribution is rather patchy to the east too, with a cluster of specimens in Kenya, and some dispersed records in Tanzania and Ethiopia. Family Hipposideridae Lydekker, 1891 Genus Asellia Gray, 1838 Asellia tridens (E. Geoffroy St.-Hilaire, 1813) Fig. 10C–D Rhinolophus tridens E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1813: 260. Aulagnier (2013: 362) indicates that Asellia tridens is a desert species that occurs in the Sahara and Sahel savanna areas of northern Africa, which is quite some distance from the Kivu area in the DRC, where the 18 specimens reported here have been collected. However, the Paris museum also has a specimen from Zanzibar, which suggests that the species might occur more to the south than generally accepted. Genus Doryrhina Peters, 1871 Very recently, Foley et al. (2017: 12) analysed the cytochrome b sequences of the members of the genus Hipposideros and found this for “H. cyclops” to be that different that they assigned this species to a separate genus: Doryrhina. This is also conirmed by the karyotype, which contains 36 chromosomes, whereas the members of the genus Hipposideros only have 32. Doryrhina cyclops (Temminck, 1853) Fig. 10E–F Phyllorrhina cyclops Temminck, 1853: 75. * Hipposideros cyclops (Temminck, 1853). Hayman et al. (1966: 44–45, map 51) only mentioned specimens from the northeastern part of the DRC (provinces of Nord-Kivu, Haut-Uélé, Bas-Uélé and Tshopo). Here, we report on additional specimens 26 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 10. Distribution maps. A–B. Stenonycteris lanosus Thomas, 1906. C–D.

Pan-African distribution. 27 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) from over almost the entire northern part of the DRC, and down along the Congo River to Kinshasa. The SDM map is very similar to the one presented by Fahr (2013d: 381), although we do believe that there is a connection between the populations from the DRC and those from Gabon and Cameroon (see also ACR 2016: 172). Genus Hipposideros Gray, 1831 Hipposideros abae J.A. Allen, 1917 Fig. 11A–B Hipposideros abæ J.A. Allen, 1917: 432. * Hipposideros abae J.A. Allen, 1917. Hipposideros abae is in the DRC only known from the extreme northeastern part of the country. Most records are from the Garamba National Park and from Aba (Haut-Uélé Province). There is one additional specimen from Digba (Bas-Uélé Province). The map provided by Happold (2013h: 372) shows a very patchy distribution from Guinea-Bissau in West Africa to northwestern Uganda. Based on climatic data, we suspect that the species might occur even further to the east through South Sudan to western Ethiopia. Hipposideros beatus K. Andersen, 1906 Fig. 11C–D Hipposiderus beatus K. Andersen, 1906: 275, 279. * Hipposideros beatus Andersen, 1906. * Hipposideros beatus maximus Verschuren, 1957: 365. Hayman et al. (1966: 41, map 47) reported this species from the Garamba National Park and Faradje in Haut-Uélé Province, from Buta in Bas-Uélé Province, and from Ikengo in Equateur Province, all in the northern part of the DRC. Here, we report on additional specimens from the provinces of Ituri, Mongala, and Tshopo (also in the northern part of the DRC), Sud-Kivu, and from Thysville (=Mbanza-Ngungu) in the Kongo Central Province. Also for this species, Happold (2013i: 374) gives a patchy Pan-African distribution from Sierra Leone in West Africa to the eastern DRC. In this area it is found in closed forests, degraded areas within the lowland rainforest, coastal woodlands and coastal scrub, and mosaics of thickets and grasslands, usually (possibly always) near rivers or swamps. Recently, Heller & Volleth (2016: 3) reported on signiicant differences in echolocation calls for the H. beatus specimens in the DRC and those from West Africa. They do not explicitly separate the two as different species, but they suggest this should be looked at further. If this proves to be correct, beatus might be restricted to West Africa (possibly to the DRC border area) and maximus might need to be raised to species level. Hipposideros caffer (Sundevall, 1846) Fig. 11E–F Rhinolophus caffer Sundevall, 1846: 118. * Hipposideros caffer (Sundevall, 1846). * Hipposideros caffer caffer (Sundevall, 1846). * Hipposideros caffer tephrus Cabrera, 1906: 358. * Hipposideros nanus J.A. Allen, 1917: 434. The identiication of a specimen from Nagero (southern edge of the Garamba National Park, Haut-Uélé Province; RBINS 14637) as H. caffer tephrus by Hayman et al. (1966: 44) is rather strange, as this subspecies (currently considered as a separate species) occurs in Morocco and the dry sub-Saharan belt 28 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 11. Distribution maps. A–B. Hipposideros abae J.A. Allen, 1917. C–D. Hipposideros beatus (K. Anderson,1906). E–F. Hipposideros caffer (Sundevall, 1846). A, C, E. Distribution in the CRB area. B, D, F. Pan-African distribution. 29 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) from Mauritania and Guinea to Sudan and Yemen at about 15° N (Vallo et al. 2009; Bernard & Happold 2013b: 377). Bernard & Happold (2013b: 376) assigned the specimens from the northeastern part of the DRC to H. c. nanus and those from the western part (Kongo Central Province) to H. c. angolensis (Seabra, 1898), leaving the remainder to H. c. caffer. On the map presented by Bernard & Happold (2013b: 377), the distribution of H. caffer only covers the area around the mouth of the Congo River and the eastern part of the DRC and the western frontiers of Rwanda and Burundi. Our data indicate that the species occurs much further to the west in the northern half of the DRC. We therefore believe the distribution is much more continuous, connecting the West African populations with those from Central and eastern Africa (see also ACR 2016: 164). Hipposideros camerunensis Eisentraut, 1956 Fig. 12A–B * Hipposideros camerunensis Eisentraut, 1956: 526. Hipposideros camerunensis is a very rare species, with a very scattered distribution consisting of a few specimens from Cameroon, eastern DRC, Uganda and western Kenya. Happold (2013j: 379) suggests that this disjunct distribution might lead to the possibility that the various populations might be (sub-) speciically distinct. Hipposideros fuliginosus (Temminck, 1853) Fig. 12C–D Phyllorrhina fuliginosa Temminck, 1853: 77. * Hipposideros fuliginosus (Temminck, 1853). Hayman et al. (1966: 45, map 52) mention only three specimens from two localities in the DRC in the collection of the BMNH: the Ituri River (Ituri Province) and Ngombe (Kasaï Province). The irst one is probably BMNH 1930.11.11.144, but the second one could not be traced, and is, therefore, not plotted on the distribution map (Fahr 2013e: 384 also indicated that this specimen needs re-examination). We did ind some additional specimens from Epulu (Ituri Province) and Yalosemba (Mongala Province), which resulted in the northern distribution of the species. Fahr (2013e: 384) plotted an additional locality near Yalosemba, but south of the Congo River, which could not be traced. Hipposideros ruber (Noack, 1893) Fig. 12E–F Phyllorhina rubra Noack, 1893: 586. * Hipposideros caffer ruber (Noack, 1893). Although longtime considered to be a subspecies of H. caffer, ruber is currently generally accepted to represent a separate species. Vallo et al. (2009: 193) recognized a number of lineages in H. ruber, which in Central Africa include two sister clades, which become sympatric in Cameroon. This suggests that more than one species is involved, but the names for these taxa have not yet been determined. The distribution map given by Happold (2013l: 394) passes almost entirely around the DRC, except for the extreme northeastern and southeastern parts of the country. However, it does include both Rwanda and Burundi. Our data suggest that the distribution is wider in the DRC, where the species might only be missing in the central part of the country. 30 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 12.

(2017) found that the Cyt-b sequences for Hipposideros commersoni E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1813, H. cryptovalorona Goodman et al., 2016, H. gigas (Wagner, 1845) and H. vittatus (Peters, 1852) are quite different from those of the other representatives of this genus, and therefore, they resurrected the genus Macronycteris Gray, 1866. This division is also supported by the deviant karyotype, which in Hipposideros counts 32 chromosomes and 52 in species assigned to Macronycteris. Macronycteris gigas (Wagner, 1845) Fig. 13A–B Rhinolophus gigas Wagner, 1845: 148. * Hipposideros commersoni gigas (Wagner, 1845). For a long time “Hipposideros commersoni” was considered to occur across the African continent, but McWilliam (1982: 9) found gigas to be speciically different from commersoni, which ultimately led to the restriction of the usage of the name “Hipposideros commersoni” for populations from Madagascar only. Happold (2013k: 385) indicates that both gigas and vittatus (or its synonym marungensis) were reported to occur sympatrically, which makes them separate species as well (see also Simmons 2005: 372, 377). Unfortunately, however, as mentioned by these two authors, this split probably makes it necessary to re-examine all material collected prior to 2005 to assess their identiication. Although Hayman et al. (1966: 44) report the two “subspecies”, they only provided a map for H. commersoni gigas (map 50), which also contained the data for the other form. The distribution map provided by Happold (2013k: 386) indicates that “H. gigas” primarily occurs in western Africa to the Republic of the Congo, coastal Angola and in the coastal areas around the border between Kenya and Tanzania. Furthermore, she plots a few isolated records in the eastern part of the DRC. The SDM map is fairly similar, although we connect the western African populations with those from the DRC and believe the eastern African populations represent Macronycteris vittatus rather than M. gigas. Macronycteris vittatus (Peters, 1852) Fig. 13C–D Phyllorrhina vittata Peters, 1852: 32. * Hipposideros commersoni marungensis (Noack, 1887): 272. The distribution map for “H. vittatus” given by Happold (2013m: 396) indicates that this species primarily occurs in southern Africa (northern Namibia, northern Botswana, Zimbabwe and southern Mozambique) and along the coast of Kenya and southern Somalia. Additionally, she plotted a few individual localities in northern Nigeria, northern Central African Republic, southwestern Angola, Tanzania and southwestern DRC. This leaves most of the territory of the DRC without any records. Based on the records we assigned to this species (see also ACR 2016) and the climatic data, we also found a strong indication that this species primarily will occur in southern Africa, but in a wider band extending to central Angola, Zambia and southern DRC. Furthermore, we expect it to occur in a narrow band along the northern frontier of the DRC, extending into southern Cameroon and coastal West Africa. However, as indicated above, the identiication of these specimens might need re-assessment. Family Megadermatidae H.

The distribution area for Cardioderma cor reported by Happold (2013n: 404) covers part of northeastern Africa, from eastern Sudan at the border with Eritrea, over Eritrea and central Ethiopia and central Kenya to northern Tanzania, with an extention into western Somalia and some individual localities in eastern Ethiopia and easternmost Somalia. The westernmost occurrence of C. cor is northeastern Uganda and just across the border into South Sudan. The DRC specimen reported here was collected by the Congolese authors at Rubi-Tele in Tshopo Province, which is a westward extension of about 800 km from the hereto closest known locality. Genus Lavia Gray, 1838 Lavia frons (Geoffroy, 1810) Fig 14A–B Megaderma frons E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1810: 192. * Lavia frons frons (E. Geoffroy St.-Hilaire, 1810). In CRB, Lavia frons is widely distributed along the eastern part of the DRC, Rwanda and Burundi. The records from the western part of the DRC are more patchy and were all previously reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 37, map 35). Its Pan-African distribution stretches in a band between 15° N and 10° S, where it occurs in the woodland savanna zones from West Africa to eastern Africa, in coastal mosaic, open degraded riverine forests in the Rainforest BZ of the central Congo Basin, East African Coastal Forest Mosaic and miombo woodland. In arid areas, it is found in bush country surrounding lakes, marshes and along rivers (Happold 2013o: 407). Family Rhinolophidae Gray, 1825 Genus Rhinolophus Lacépède, 1799 Rhinolophus alcyone Temminck, 1852 Fig. 14C–D Rhinolophus alcyone Temminck, 1852: 80. * Rhinolophus alcyone alcyone Temminck, 1852. Hayman et al. (1966: 38, map 37) only report two specimens belonging to this species, one from Buluku and one from the upper Makpe River, both in the Garamba National Park, Haut-Uélé Province. Two additional specimens are from Lukolela (Mai-Ndombe Province, on the border with the Republic of Congo) and Scierie Forest (Maniema Province). Although specimens were reported from the Republic of Congo by Dowsett et al. (1991: 256), these were from the coastal province of Kioulou at quite some distance from Lukolela. Happold (2013e: 311) mentions that this species primarily occurs in the lowland rainforests, but also in dense relict and riverine forests north of the rainforest. Rhinolophus blasii Peters, 1867 Fig. 14E–F Rhinolophus blasii Peters, 1867: 17. 34 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 14. Distribution maps. A–B.

Pan-African distribution. 35 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) * Rhinolophus blasii empusa (Andersen, 1904: 378). In the CRB region, this species is represented by a single specimen from Moba, Tanganyika Province. Happold (2013f: 312) mentions that R. blasii empusa occurs from the southern DRC to the former Transvaal (RSA). The map she presents also indicates that the Pan-African distribution for R. blasii contains three centres of gravity: one in the southern half of Africa, starting in the southern DRC and Tanzania to the northeastern part of the RSA; a second one in Ethiopia and a third north of the Sahara in Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia. Based on SDM data, we suspect that there might be a connection between the southern and the eastern areas, but the connection towards the Maghrabian populations doesn’t seem to be straightforward. This might warrant further investigation to conirm the speciic relation between these two separate areas. Happold (2013f: 313) also plotted a second specimen in the neighbourhood of Likasi (Haut-Katanga Province), but that specimen could not be traced. Rhinolophus clivosus Cretzschmar, 1826 Fig. 15A–B * Rhinolophus clivosus Cretzschmar, 1826: 47. * Rhinolophus clivosus zuluensis (Andersen, 1904): 383. Hayman et al. (1966: 38) mention two different taxa: R. clivosus and R. clivosus zuluensis, where the latter name is applied to specimens from the (south)western part of the DRC (Sud-Kivu, Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga). However, Bernard & Happold (2013a: 316) mention coastal South Africa as region for the zuluensis subspecies. They do not provide any information on the identity of the subspecies occurring in the DRC. Based on the boundaries set by Bernard & Happold (2013a: 316), the northern specimens (from Nord- and Sud-Kivu and from Rwanda and Burundi) might possibly be assigned to keniensis Hollister, 1916, and those from Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga to augur K. Andersen, 1904. The subspeciic assignment of the westernmost specimen (RMCA 7718 from Kisantu, Kongo Central Province) cannot be performed as no other specimens from that area are known. The Rwandan locality here attributed to Hayman et al. (1966) refers to three specimens from BugoyeKisenyi, Western Prefecture (RMCA 12265 to 12267), which were originally assigned to Rhinolophus fumigatus. Recent research on nuclear introns by Dool et al. (2016: 202) indicates that R. clivosus is paraphyletic, which would suggest that some of the currently recognized subspecies might represent valid, separate species. Stoffberg et al. (2012) already found that the mtDNA control region of the southern African R. clivosus specimens differed considerably from that of northern populations (as much as they differ from R. ferrumequinum). They suggest to call these R. geoffroyi Smith, 1829. However, they also point out that it “… is not currently recognized as a separate species because the name was unidentiiable and the type specimen apparently lost …” This was already mentioned by Ellerman et al. (1953: 56), Hayman (1954: 284), and Csorba et al. (2003). Stoffberg et al. (2012) do not provide any information that substantiates the validity of geoffroyi, so we are reluctant to use this name. They also indicate that “R. geoffroyi” includes four subspecies: geoffroyi in western RSA, zuluensis in eastern RSA, augur in central RSA and Botswana and zambesiensis in Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Zambia and the southeastern-most part of the DRC (Sakania Territory, Haut-Katanga Province). The latter area is just southeast of the records from Haut-Katanga we report here, and seems to suggest that they do not belong to “R. geoffroyi”. Stoffberg et al. (2012: 6) considered specimens from Kenya to belong to R. clivosus, which might suggest that the more northern CRB specimens (Sud- and Nord-Kivu, Burundi and Rwanda) could be assigned to 36 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 15.

On the other hand, Benda & Vallo (2012: 83) indicate that all populations occurring in the savanna belt from southeastern RSA to Kenya belong to one taxon, for which augur K. Andersen, 1904 is the prior available name. However, pending further research into the systematics of the R. clivosus complex, we tentatively retain the name R. clivosus for all the CRB specimens. Cotterill (2002: 166) described a new closely related horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus sakejiensis) from Kavunda (11°17′ S, 24°21′ E), between the Sakeji and Zambezi Rivers in Zambian Northwest Province. This locality is less than 10 km from the border with the DRC. It would, therefore, also be very likely that this species occurs in the DRC, but it has not yet been recovered from there. Rhinolophus eloquens K. Andersen, 1905 Fig. 15C–D Rhinolophus Hildebrandti eloquens K. Andersen, 1905: 74. * Rhinolophus hildebrandti eloquens Andersen 1905. Although described as a subspecies of hildebrandtii, eloquens was widely accepted to represent a separate species, already beginning with Andersen (1905: 660; 1907: 31, 34), and further Allen (1939), Koopman (1975: 389), Simmons (2005: 354) and Cotterill (2013a: 323). However, some authors, such as Hayman & Hill (1971: 22), placed eloquens in R. fumigatus, whereas Kock (1969: 121) considered it a subspecies of R. aethiops (which is currently also considered a synonym of fumigatus). Cotterill (2013a: 324) indicates that eloquens can be distinguished from either fumigatus and hildebrandtii by its size, but the dimensions show a considerable overlap (see key). The map presented by Cotterill (2013a: 324) shows a very restricted distribution in eastern Africa, with occurrences in Kenya, Uganda, South Sudan, Rwanda and extreme northeastern DRC. This agrees very well with the distribution we postulate, although we believe it might also occur in southern Ethiopia. Rhinolophus fumigatus Rüppell, 1842 Fig. 15E–F *Rhinolophus fumigatus Rüppell, 1842: 132. In their synonymy list for R. fumigatus, Hayman et al. (1966: 38) include Rhinolophus abae J.A. Allen, 1917, and they refer to Koopman, who considered abae to be very close to fumigatus at the species level and indicated that abae might only be a subspecies of fumigatus. The records for these two taxa were grouped together in the text, but they still provided two separate maps: 36 for R. abae and 40 for R. fumigatus. These maps indicate that the two taxa occur in the northeastern RDC. Further fumigatus records were reported from Rwanda and the southern provinces of Tanganyika, Lualaba and HautKatanga. Hayman et al. (1966) also reported a series from 74 km on the Banana-Boma Road (RMCA 20649, 20651 to 20653), but these were re-identiied as Rhinolophus lobatus (= R. landeri; Wim Wendelen, pers. comm.). However, two other R. fumigatus specimens have surfaced from the Kongo Central Province (Thysville: RBINS 22428 and 22429). Cotterill & Happold (2013a: 330) indicate that R. fumigatus inhabits savanna areas (miombo and mopane woodlands in south-central Africa). Their distribution map shows a patchy covering of sub-Saharan Africa consisting of a number of red areas in West Africa, northeast Africa (including NE DRC, Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya and Ethiopia), and southwestern Africa (Angola and Namibia) as well as a number of individual records in southeastern Africa (Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique). From the data in ACR (2016) we know that the distribution in southern Africa is more extensive than Cotterill & Happold’s map suggests, and this probably might also be the case in West Africa. As such, our distribution map is more extensive, indicating that R. fumigatus 38 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited occurs over the major part of sub-Saharan Africa, with the exception of the coastal areas in West Africa, the Central African forest region and extreme southern Africa. Rhinolophus hildebrandtii Peters, 1878 Fig. 16A–B Rhinolophus Hildebrandtii Peters, 1878: 195. * Rhinolophus hildebrandti Peters, 1878. Hayman et al. (1966: 39) distinguished two forms in R. hildebrandtii; one they identiied to subspeciic level (see below) and one to speciic level. However, they only included one distribution map (map 41) for these two forms. The distribution within CRB was restricted to the eastern part of the DRC and Rwanda, with specimens in the Congolese provinces of Nord-Kivu, Ituri and Haut-Uélé in the north on the one hand and in Tanganyika, Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga Provinces in the south on the other hand. Some of the specimens from Rwanda (Magachi, INPBC V1903; Lugarama, INPBC 3041) were re-identiied as R. fumigatus, which might account for the remark made by Monfort (1992: 146) on the species being plotted on map 41 in Hayman et al. (1966), but being absent in their listing. Additional specimens of R. hildebrandtii are reported from Burundi and the southern Congolese provinces, but also from Gangala-na-Bodio (Haut-Uélé Province, RMCA 26664 and 26665) and Ibembo (Bas-Uélé Province, RMCA 89.004-M-0002). Based on their geographic location, the specimens from the Uélé Provinces might possibly need to be re-assigned to R. eloquens, but even for that species, the Ibembo specimen was found too far to the west. Rhinolophus hilli Aellen, 1973 Fig. 16C–D Rhinolophus hilli Aellen, 1973: 101. Although the type specimen of Rhinolophus hilli was already collected in 1964, it was only described after the publication of Hayman et al. (1966). The species is only known from two specimens: the type specimen from Uwinka, at the top of a hill at 2300 m, and another specimen from Ruta Bansugera (=Routabansougera) at the bottom of the same hill at 1750 m and 8 km to the northwest (Baeten et al. 1984: 194; Fahr 2013b: 335). Rhinolophus kahuzi Fahr & Kerbis Peterhans, 2013 Fig. 16E–F Rhinolophus kahuzi Fahr & Kerbis Peterhans, 2013: 192, 194. This recently described species is only known from the type specimen (Kerbis Peterhans et al. 2013: 194). Rhinolophus landeri Martin, 1838 Fig. 17A–B Rhinolophus landeri Martin, 1838: 101. * Rhinolophus landeri lobatus Peters, 1852: 41. The form lobatus is currently still accepted to be a valid subspecies of R. landeri, occurring from Sudan and Ethiopia, southwards to the former Transvaal (RSA) (Happold 2013g: 340). The nominate subspecies (R. l. landeri) occurs from Gambia to Cameroon and further south to the mouth of the Congo River. This means that the specimens from Banana (RMCA 20746 and 20747) and from 74 km on the Banana-Boma Road (RMCA 20643 to 20653) might be assigned to R. landeri landeri and all other specimens to R. l. 39 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Fig. 16.

The distribution map presented by Happold (2013g: 340) suggests there might be a connection between the eastern and western populations in the DRC, but that is not yet supported by evidence. Based on climatic data, the SDM map suggests that there probably might not be a direct connection between the eastern and western populations, but that the latter could be connected to the specimens from Angola, which implies that the specimens from the Kongo Central Province may possibly be assigned to R. l. angolensis Seabra, 1898. To resolve the subspeciic status of these specimens, further material from western Gabon, Congo, Angola and DRC is required. Rhinolophus ruwenzorii Hill, 1942 Fig. 17C–D * Rhinolophus ruwenzorii J. Eric Hill, 1942: 1. Rhinolophus ruwenzorii has a very restricted distribution of approximately 360 km2 in the DRC provinces of Nord-Kivu and Ituri (Fahr 2013c: 342). Some authors (e.g., Smith & Hood 1980) consider ruwenzorii to be a subspecies of the west African R. maclaudi, which would result in an extremely disjunct distribution for this species (Baeten et al. 1984). However, Fahr et al. (2002) showed that both forms differ substantially and should be considered as separate species. Rhinolophus simulator K. Andersen, 1912 Fig. 17E–F Rhinolophus simulator K. Andersen, 1912: 384. The 52 specimens of R. simulator reported here were already collected in the irst half of the 1960s at a number of localities in the provinces of Haut Katanga, Lualaba and Haut-Lomami (southeastern DRC). These localities form a westwards extension of the species in central Africa, but Cotterill & Happold (2013b: 352) mention its presence in northern Zambia. Furthermore they plotted individual localities in Tanzania, Uganda and South Sudan, as well as in a few small areas in central Ethiopia and Malawi and in a larger area stretching from southern Zambia, over almost entire Zimbabwe, southwestern Mozambique and northern RSA. They also report its presence in a few localities in the border area between Guinea and Liberia and in central Nigeria and western Cameroon. ACR (2016: 1075) reported additional localities from Botswana and Namibia. Based on bioclimatic data, the species might also occur in central Angola, which would suggest that the southern African distribution area might connect to Cameroon along the coast. Rhinolophus swinnyi Gough, 1908 Fig. 18A–B * Rhinolophus swinnyi Gough, 1908: 71. Hayman et al. (1966: 40) mention 25 specimens in the collection of the Tervuren Museum (RMCA) from Banana, Baudouinville, Kakontwe and Lubudi Cave, but contrary to all other taxa, no museum numbers were provided. A recent catalog list of the museum (Wim Wendelen, pers. comm.) doesn’t mention any specimens belonging to this species either. Based on the currently available data, R. swinnyi is restricted to the extreme southeastern part of the DRC (Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga Provinces). The Pan-African distribution of the species includes eastern (Tanzania) and southern Africa, where it occurs from the southern DRC, over Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi, southern Mozambique and extreme eastern RSA. 41 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Fig. 17.

Rhinolophus willardi is known from two localities in the Sud-Kivu Province, where the holotype and three paratypes were collected (Kerbis Peterhans et al. 2013: 191). These are the only known specimens of this species. Family Rhinonycteridae Gray, 1866 From their study of 19 nuclear exon and intron gene fragments, Foley et al. (2014) demonstrated that the genera Cloeotis, Rhinonicteris, Paratriaenops and Triaenops differed signiicantly enough from the genera Asellia, Aselliscus, Coelops and Hipposideros to assign them to a separate family, the Rhinonycteridae. Genus Cloeotis Thomas, 1901 Cloeotis percivali Thomas, 1901 Fig. 18E–F Cloeotis Percivali Thomas, 1901: 28. * Cloeotis percivali australis Roberts, 1917: 264. In the CRB area, Cloeotis percivali is restricted to the southeastern Congolese provinces of Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga. Strangely enough, Jacobs (2013: 365) only refers to one locality: Shinkolobwe. Its PanAfrican distribution reaches from southern DRC over Zambia and Zimbabwe to northwestern RSA and Swaziland. All of these records are assigned to C. p. australis. The nominate subspecies is restricted to southeastern Kenya and northeastern Tanzania, where it is known from a few isolated specimens. Suborder Vespertilioniformi Hutcheon & Kirsch, 2006 Family Emballonuridae Gervais, 1855 Genus Coleura Peters, 1868 Coleura afra (Peters, 1852) Fig. 19A–B Emballonura afra Peters, 1852: 51. * Coleura afra (Peters, 1852). No further locality records for this species were found besides those mentioned by Hayman et al. (1966: 31), although we were able to track additional specimens from these localities. One locality (Kodja Hill, Haut-Uélé Province) is not indicated on our map as we could not trace the underlying material. Schwarz (1920: 1050) mentions this/these specimen(s) to be collected by the Alexander-Gosling expedition. Genus Saccolaimus Temminck, 1838 Saccolaimus peli (Temminck, 1853) Fig. 19C–D Taphozous peli Temminck, 1853: 82. * Taphozous (Saccolaimus) peli Temminck, 1853. Saccolaimus has variably been assigned (sub)generic status by various authors, but Barghoorn (1977: 5) ranked it as a genus based on its skull proportions and ossiication, and the morphology of the auditory bullae (see also ig. 88 in Happold 2013p). 44 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 19.

Pan-African distribution. 45 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Our distribution map hardly differs from the one presented by Hayman et al. (1966: map 24). We have a few extra records in the Nord-Kivu and Ituri Provinces in the northeastern part of the DRC, and in the Mongala and Tshuapa Provinces in the northwestern part of the country. The general map shows that S. peli is primarily a forest species. Genus Taphozous E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1818 Taphozous mauritianus E. Geoffroy St.-Hilaire, 1818 Fig. 19E–F * Taphozous mauritianus E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1818: 127. This species was reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 31, map21) from all over CRB. The extra specimens we report here ill in a few gaps, but do not add any further information. The general distribution map indicates that T. mauritianus potentially occurs over the entire sub-Saharan part of Africa, with the exception of the Kalahari and a major part of the RSA. Taphozous nudiventris Cretzschmar, 1830 Fig. 20A–B Taphozous nudiventris Cretzschmar, 1830: 70. * Taphozous (Liponycteris) nudiventris (Cretzschmar, 1830). One single specimen from Cell II in the Garamba National Park (Haut-Uélé Province) was reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 32). No further specimens were found by us. The SDM map of the species indicates that its occurrence in the extreme northeastern corner of the DRC is not completely unexpected. Taphozous perforatus E. Geoffroy St.-Hilaire, 1818 Fig. 20C–D Taphozous perforatus E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1818: 126. * Taphozous sudani Thomas, 1915: 561. Rosevear (1965: 150–151) compared material of both T. perforatus and T. sudani, and found that the only character distinguishing the two taxa is the darker pelage in sudani, generally combined with white wings. He also found a specimen with intermediate characters, which led him to retain sudani only as a mere subspecies of perforatus. This view was followed by most subsequent authors (e.g., Kock 1969: 74; Hayman & Hill 1971: 16; Koopman 1975: 370). With the exception of a few extra specimens from the same localities, all the material reported in this paper was already mentioned by Hayman et al. (1966: 32). The SDM map shows that T. perforatus primarily occurs in sub-Saharan Africa, above the equator, with a few records reported from northern Botswana and southern Zimbabwe. Family Nycteridae Van der Hoeven, 1855 Genus Nycteris G. Cuvier & E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1795 Nycteris arge Thomas, 1903 Fig. 20E–F * Nycteris arge Thomas, 1903: 633. 46 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 20.

B, D, F. Pan-African distribution. 47 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) The distribution of this species is primarily restricted to the northern part of the DRC, with a few specimens from the Upemba National Park (Haut-Lomami Province) and Luebo (Kasaï Province), already reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 33, map 26), and some additional specimens from the Kananga (Kasaï-Central Province) and Kilembe (Kwilu Province) areas. In general, its distribution is mainly restricted to the rainforest zones and the rainforest-savanna mosaics (Fahr 2013f: 442). Nycteris grandis Peters, 1865 Fig. 21A–B * Nycteris grandis Peters, 1865: 351, 358. Both the species distribution model and the distribution within CRB of Nycteris grandis are more or less similar to those of the previous species. For this species its core distribution within the DRC is in the northern part of the country. Although the SDM map also indicates that the species occurs in East Africa down to Zimbabwe and southern Mozambique, it has not been found in the southeastern provinces of the DRC. Nycteris hispida (Schreber, 1774) Fig. 21C–D Vespertilio hispidus Schreber, 1774: 169, 188. * Nycteris hispida (Schreber, 1774). Nycteris hispida has a very wide distribution, both in CRB and Pan-African. In the DRC it is found over almost the entire country, and it is also known from both Rwanda and Burundi. The SDM map indicates that it occurs almost over the entire sub-Saharan African continent, with the exception of the extreme eastern part. It is also missing from Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe (except for the most northern parts of these latter two countries), and from most of the RSA, where it only occurs along the eastern coast line. Nycteris intermedia Aellen, 1959 Fig. 21E–F * Nycteris intermedia Aellen, 1959: 218. In a note on page 35, Hayman et al. (1966) mention for N. intermedia: “A doubtfully valid species”. However, the multivariate biometrical analyses by Van Cakenberghe & De Vree (1985) showed that this species can clearly be distinguished from the larger N. arge and the smaller N. nana. Contrary to the very patchy distribution map presented by Fahr (2013g: 450), we believe this species has a more extensive distribution over the African rainforest than all of the members of the Nycteris arge group, since representatives of this species might have been misidentiied as N. arge. However, we do caution that in the DRC, the species has only been found in the northeastern part of the country (Ituri, Nord- and South-Kivu Provinces). Nycteris macrotis Dobson, 1876 Fig. 22A–F * Nycteris macrotis Dobson, 1876: 80. * Nycteris aethiopica Dobson, 1878: 162, 165. For a very long time, up to the early 1960s and 1970s, N. aethiopia has been considered a separate species (from N. macrotis). Hayman et al. (1966: 33, 35, 36) followed that view, but also referred to Koopman, who indicated that aethiopica and macrotis are conspeciic. Hayman & Hill (1971: 19) 48 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 21. Distribution maps. A–B. Nycteris grandis Peters, 1865. C–D. Nycteris hispida (Schreber, 1774). E–F. Nycteris intermedia Aellen, 1959. A, C, E. Distribution in the CRB area. B, D, F. Pan-African distribution. 49 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) still mention the two as separate species, but note that their distinctness is by no means clear, as was suggested by Koopman (1965) and Kock (1969). The multivariate analyses by Van Cakenberghe & De Vree (1985) conirmed that the two forms are conspeciic. Nycteris macrotis has a scattered distribution over CRB, where it occurs in almost all regions, except for the northwestern part of the DRC. The SDM map suggests a wide distribution across Africa south of the Sahara. Nycteris major (K. Andersen, 1912) Fig. 22C–D Petalia major K. Andersen, 1912: 547. * Nycteris major (Andersen, 1912). Hayman et al. (1966: 36) only mention the type specimen of N. avakubia as representative of N. major in the DRC. However, on map 32, they have two dots, and neither of them refers to the type locality of avakubia, which is Avakubi (Tshopo Province). The two dots seem to refer to the two AMNH specimens reported by Allen (1917: 427) as belonging to N. major (49399 from the Garamba National Park and 49422 from Faradje), but of which Koopman (1965: 6) indicated that they actually belong to N. macrotis. Koopman (1965) furthermore refers to two additional specimens reported by Schouteden (1947): one from Macaco (Kasaï Province; reported for the irst time by Kershaw 1923) and one from Boma (Kongo Central Province). These specimens were re-identiied by Hayman et al. (1966: 35) and Van Cakenberghe & De Vree (1985: 80) as N. macrotis. Nycteris nana (K. Andersen, 1912) Fig. 22E–F Petalia nana K. Andersen, 1912: 547. * Nycteris nana (Andersen, 1912). Hayman et al. (1966: map 33) restricted the occurrence of N. nana in the DRC to the current provinces of Ituri and Haut-Uélé, with one record from Ibembo (Bas-Uélé Province). All of these are in the northeastern part of the DRC. Further specimens are recorded from as far west as Duma, on the border with the Central African Republic, and as far south as Kananga (Central-Kasaï Province). Due to the regular collection of specimens belonging to this species, Fahr (2013h: 455) doesn’t believe the disjunct distribution he presented to be the result of insuficient sampling. However, he did not include the record from Duma (SMF 6390) nor the one from Wafanya (RMCA 89.020-M-0042), so the actual distribution of the species might be more wide than he suggested. Additionally, Fahr (2013h) also indicates that N. nana is recorded in drier types of forests than the other representatives of the N. arge group (arge, intermedia and major). Nycteris parisii (de Beaux, 1924) Fig. 23A–B Petalia parisii de Beaux, 1924 (for 1923): 254. The systematic position of Nycteris parisii isn’t completely clear yet. Van Cakenberghe & De Vree (1985: 81) included it in N. woodi K. Andersen, 1914, but Cotterill (2013b: 456) considered it a separate species. There is one specimen from Mount Né, near Blukwa (Ituri Province), which is in between the eastern African records from Ethiopia and Somalia on the one hand and the record from Cameroon on the other 50 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 22.

PanAfrican distribution. 51 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) hand. Cotterill (2013b: 457) indicates that it occurs in the Sudan savanna, the Somalia-Masai bushland and the coastal forest mosaic biotic zones. Nycteris thebaica Geoffroy, 1818 Fig. 23C–D Nycteris Thebaicus E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1818: 119. * Nycteris capensis Smith, 1829: 434. * Nycteris thebaica E. Geoffroy St.-Hilaire, 1818. As all recent authors, Bernard & Happold (2013c: 458) consider capensis to be a subspecies of N. thebaica, which is distributed over Tanzania, SE DRC and Zambia to Cape of Good Hope. As such, the records reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 34, map 27) from the northern provinces of Nord-Kivu and Ituri do not belong to this form. Furthermore, most of the specimens from Kateke River (RBINS 10813 to 10834) reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 34) as N. capensis were re-identiied by Van Cakenberghe & De Vree (1985: 80) as N. macrotis. Most of the records reported here are from the eastern part of CRB (provinces Ituri, Nord- and South-Kivu, Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga in the DRC and in Rwanda). The only exception is a series of ive specimens, collected by Brian Robbins in Yalosemba in Mongala Province. The distribution of the species is primarily sub-saharan Africa, but also along the Atlantic coast up to Morocco and along the River Nile and part of the coast of the Red Sea up to the Mediterranean. Family Molossidae Gervais, 1856 At the time of Hayman et al. (1966), most of the African molossids were assigned to the genus Tadarida, which was split up in a number of subgenera. Freeman (1981: 36), however, considered these subgenera to be valid genera. Genus Chaerephon Dobson, 1874 Chaerephon aloysiisabaudiae (Festa, 1907) Fig. 23E–F Nyctinomus aloysii-sabaudiæ Festa, 1907: 1. * Tadarida (Chaerephon) aloysii-sabaudiae (Festa, 1907). * Tadarida (Tadarida) brunnea (Seabra, 1900): 83. Hayman et al. (1966: 61) mentioned one DRC record, an immature specimen from Avakubi (AMNH 48934), which according to Koopman (1965: 23) represents T. (C.) aloysiisabaudiae. They also mentioned (p. 67) one specimen from Eala (RMCA 6565, Equateur Province) belonging to T. (T.) brunnea. According to Simmons (2005: 449), Nyctinomus brunneus is a synonym of Tadarida aegyptiaca. However, Fenton & Peterson (1972: 19) re-examined this specimen and found that it represented T. aloysiisabaudiae. A third specimen was collected in Yalosemba (Mongala Province). A further specimen (RBINS 13826 from Iso.4, Garamba National Park) was identiied as T. trevori by Hayman et al. (1966: 65), but was re-identiied as T. aloysiisabaudiae by Peterson (1972: 2). All of these localities are in the northern part of the DRC. Fahr (2013k: 494) indicates that C. aloysiisabaudiae is mainly found in the rainforest and adjacent northern and eastern rainforest-savanna mosaics, one record very marginally in the Sudan savanna. Specimens were reported from Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Cameroon, Gabon, Central African Republic, DRC, South Sudan and Uganda. The SDM map suggests it might occur as far west as Liberia and as far east as central Ethiopia, western Kenya and northwestern Tanzania. Furthermore, it might extend southwards to southern DRC and northeastern Angola. 52 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 23. Distribution maps. A–B.

(1966: 67, map 108) reported ansorgei from a number of localities in the eastern part of the DRC: the Garamba National Park and Faradje (Haut-Uélé Province) and from Jadotville (=Likasi) and Mwadingusha (Haut Katanga Province). The specimen from Vitshumbi (RMCA 17076) was reidentiied by R.L. Peterson as belonging to Chaerephon bivittatus. Additional material was collected in Rwanda (Gabiro and Rukara) and in the DRC near Lake Kivu (Sud-Kivu Province) and in the Kikwit area (Kwilu Province). The latter is a major extention to the west of the DRC, but was overlooked by Cotterrill (2013b: 496). His map shows a scattered sub-Saharan distribution, composed of two larger areas: central Ethiopia and southwestern Zimbabwe, a few smaller areas in northeastern DRC, northeastern Zimbabwe, southwestern Kenya and the southern border between Nigeria and Cameroon, and some individual localities in eastern Côte d’Ivoire, northern Cameroon, northern Central African Republic, southern South Sudan, southwestern Tanzania, southeastern DRC, Zimbabwe and northern Angola. The SDM map suggests a potentially wider distribution in southern Africa, reaching further southwards in Angola towards northern Namibia. Chaerephon bemmeleni (Jentink, 1879) Fig. 24C–D Nyctinomus Bemmeleni Jentink, 1879: 125. * Tadarida (Tadarida) cistura (Thomas, 1903): 502. Based on morphological comparisons, Peterson (1971b: 1347) found that cistura is only an eastern African subspecies of bemmeleni. Hayman et al. (1966: 67, map 110) reported the species from two localities in the Nord-Kivu Province, and no additional specimens were found. Fahr (2013l: 498) indicates that C. bemmeleni is known from ive localities in West Africa (Sierra Leone, Liberia, Côte d’Ivoire and Cameroon) and from approximately 17 localities in eastern Africa, ranging from South Sudan, over Uganda and northeastern DRC into the border area between Kenya and Tanzania. Furthermore, he also plotted an additional locality in Maniema Province, but without providing details. Chaerephon bivittatus (Heuglin, 1861) Fig. 24E–F Nyctinomus bivittatus Heuglin, 1861: 4, 13. One immature specimen belonging to this species is known from the DRC. This specimen was originally identiied as Tadarida ansorgei, but as indicated above, was re-identiied by R. L. Peterson as belonging to the current species. Cotterill (2013d: 500) reported this species from a number of scattered areas in eastern Africa, reaching from northwestern Eritrea over central Ethiopia, western Kenya, the coastal area between Kenya and Tanzania, northern Zambia, southern Zambia, central Zimbabwe, the border between Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and also from a small area on the border between Uganda and South Sudan. This latter area is the closest record of C. bivittatus to the DRC. Chaerephon chapini J.A. Allen, 1917 Fig. 25A–B Chærephon (Lophomops) chapini J.A.

Pan-African distribution. 55 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Hayman et al. (1966: 61, map 92) reported chapini from three localities: Banana Creek (Kongo Central Province), Léopoldville (Kinshasa City Province) and Faradje (Haut-Uélé Province). The two former are in the western part of the DRC, whereas the latter is in the northeast. There is one additional specimen from Masha in northwestern Rwanda. Happold & Cotterill (2013: 504) plotted two additional localities in southeastern DRC, but in their text they only refer to northeastern and southwestern DRC. Furthermore, they plotted individual localities in Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, South Sudan, Ethiopia, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Namibia, as well as small distribution areas in western Kenya, northern Botswana and the western boundary between Namibia and Angola. The SDM map indicates that the species can occur in the countries between Ghana and South Sudan, although the Central African Republic doesn’t seem to be that favorable. Furthermore, it might occur in a major part of Tanzania, Malawi and the western part of Mozambique. Chaerephon gallagheri (Harrison, 1975) Fig. 25C–D Tadarida (Chaerephon) gallagheri Harrison, 1975: 313. Also this species was described after the publication of Hayman et al. (1966) and is known from one specimen only (Harrison 1975: 313; Cotterill 2013f: 305). Chaerephon leucogaster (A. Grandidier, 1869) Fig. 25E–F * Nyctinomus leucogaster A. Grandidier, 1869: 337. In Mammals of Africa, Happold (2013v: 528) includes leucogaster in Tadarida pumila. However, we follow Peterson et al. (1995: 162) and Simmons (2005: 434) in retaining it as a separate species. Some of the forms we consider to be synonyms of leucogaster were treated as synonyms of pumilus by Hayman et al. (1966: 62): Chaerephon (Lophomops) cristatus J.A. Allen, 1917 and Chaerephon frater J.A. Allen, 1917. Simmons (2005) indicates that the distribution area of this species extends from Ethiopia to Ghana, including Nigeria, the DRC, Mali, and Madagascar. ACR (2016: 1130) mentions furthermore specimens from Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Côte d’Ivoire, Mayotte, Sierra Leone, Tanzania and Zambia. Chaerephon major (Trouessart, 1897) Fig. 26A–B [Nyctinomus (Nyctinomus) pumilus] var. Major Trouessart, 1897: 146. * Tadarida (Chaerephon) major (Trouessart, 1897). Hayman et al. (1966: 61, map 93) reported this species from the Garamba National Park and Faradje and Aba (Haut-Uélé Province). Additional specimens were found in Rwindi (Nord-Kivu Province), Tandala (Sud-Ubangi Province) and Mbandaka (Equateur Province). All of these localities are in the northern half of the DRC, with the latter two on the western side. These additional records are not mentioned by Happold (2013s: 517), who mapped the species from a number of distinct areas: one starting from the Garamba National Park along the River Nile up to Abu Hamad in Sudan, a second on the eastern side of Lake Victoria, a third along the coast of Kenya and Tanzania, and inally a larger area in West Africa, starting in eastern Guinea and reaching the western part of Nigeria. Based on the material in ACR (2016: 1131) and the climatological data, we believe the species can occur further to the west (to Senegal) and to the east (in western Ethiopia). Additionally ACR (2016: 1131) refers to material from Cameroon and the Central African Republic, bridging the gap between 10° E and 33° E referred to by Happold (2013s: 517). 56 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 25.

Pan-African distribution. 57 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Chaerephon nigeriae Thomas, 1913 Fig. 26C–D Chærephon nigeriæ Thomas, 1913: 319. * Tadarida (Chaerephon) nigeriae Thomas, 1913. * Tadarida (Chaerephon) spillmanni (Monard, 1933): 51. Contrary to most other changes proposed by Koopman, Hayman et al. (1966: 64) did not follow Koopman (1965: 21), who suggested that there is “no good reason to regard spillmanni as anything except a subspecies of T. (C.) nigeriae.” They indicated (p. 62) that the different wing colour separates the two species. According to their maps (94 and 97), the dark-winged nigeriae occurs in the northeastern part of the DRC (Haut-Uélé Province) and the light-winged spillmanni in the southeastern part (Tanganyika, Haut-Katanga and Haut-Lomami Provinces). One additional record comes from Tandala (Equateur Province), in the northwestern part of the DRC. With the exception of the last record, Cotterill & Happold (2013d: 524) plotted all of the DRC specimens. The southeastern records are part of an area also covering the north/western parts of Zambia. A further large area is found in Zimbabwe-Botswana, and they also drew smaller areas in Ghana, southern Nigeria, northern Cameroon, northern Central African Republic, central Ethiopia and south-central Angola, and individual localities in Guinea, Niger, South Sudan, Tanzania and Namibia. The SDM map suggests a much wider distribution in southern Africa (supported by material from northeastern RSA; ACR 2016: 1133). Chaerephon pumilus (Cretzschmar, 1826) Fig. 26E–F Dysopes pumilus Cretzschmar, 1826: 69. * Tadarida (Chaerephon) pumila (Cretzschmar, 1826). Hayman et al. (1966: 62, map 95) reported this species from almost over the entire CRB area, with the exception of the northwestern and central parts of the DRC. The only more central locality is Stanleyville (= Kisangani, Tshopo Province), where a single specimen was collected in the 19th century (RMCA 283). The additional records, we have found, seem to conirm this distribution. The distribution map given by Happold (2013v: 529) shows two main areas where C. pumilus occurs: one in West Africa, where it occurs from Senegal to Nigeria and northern Cameroon, although lacking in the coastal forest, and a second in eastern Africa, from the Red Sea coast in Eritrea over eastern Sudan, South Sudan and western Ethiopia, eastern DRC, Zambia, northern Zimbabwe, Malawi, Mozambique to northeastern RSA. It also occurs in southern Kenya, reaching the coast, going north into Somalia and south into Tanzania and Mozambique. Furthermore, she indicates a peculiar extension across the southern DRC to reach the Atlantic coast in Cabinda and Angola, and going south almost to the border with Namibia. ACR (2016: 387, 1135) mentions additional records from Cameroon, Gabon and Congo which narrow the gap between the western and eastern distribution ranges. However, there still seems to be a gap in the north between 20° and 25° E in Chad, Sudan, Central African Republic and the DRC (with the exception of the single specimen from Kisangani), which might continue further in central and eastern Angola and Namibia towards the RSA. This would suggest that the western DRC specimens, as well as those from Angola, might be closer related to the specimens from western Africa than to those from the eastern part of the distribution area. A connection between the western and eastern populations might indeed be along the line suggested by Happold (2013v), but it might also be that the specimens from the Kasaï Provinces are the easternmost representatives of the western populations or the westernmost representatives of the eastern populations. 58 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 26.

Allen, 1917: 458. * Tadarida (Chaerephon) russata J.A. Allen, 1917. The only specimens belonging to this species reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 64, map 96) were from the type locality in Haut-Uélé Province, northeastern DRC. There is one additional record from Tandala (Sud-Ubangi Province), northwestern DRC. The distribution map presented by Happold (2013w: 531) shows that the few known localities, where this species was found, are almost on a straight line reaching from southern Côte d’Ivoire, southern Ghana, Cameroon, northern DRC to southwestern Kenya. Genus Mops Lesson, 1842 Subgenus Mops Lesson, 1842 Mops (Mops) condylurus (A. Smith, 1833) Fig. 27C–D Nyctinomus Condylurus A. Smith, 1833: 54. * Tadarida (Mops) condylura (A. Smith, 1833). * Tadarida (Mops) condylura condylura (A. Smith, 1833). Hayman et al. (1966: 64) indicated that many of the specimens they reported under this name could actually belong to one of the next species (M. niveiventer). The major part of the specimens they mention are from the eastern part of the DRC (provinces Haut-Uélé, Ituri, Nord-Kivu, Sud-Kivu, Maniema, HautLomami, Haut-Katanga) and Rwanda. Their two remaining localities were from more western areas: Lubondai-Tshimbulu (Kasaï-Central Province) and Léopoldville (Kinshasa City Province). We found additional specimens from localities in Rwanda and Burundi, the Sud-Kivu, Tanganyika and KasaïCentral Provinces, and from further to the west (Kikwit, Kwilu Province). These localities were all in the general area already reported by Hayman et al. (1966). However, we also found two records from the northwestern part of the DRC (Duma and Tandala, both in Sud-Ubangi Province). The map given by Happold (2013r: 505) shows a major distribution area in eastern Africa, ranging from southeastern Sudan, over South Sudan, eastern DRC, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, southern DRC, most of Angola, Zambia, Malawi, southern Mozambique to northeastern RSA. In Kenya, there is a small band along the border with Tanzania from Uganda to the coast, where it turns northwards to reach into Somalia. The absence of the species in almost entire Tanzania and northern Mozambique is rather strange, although a single locality is plotted on the coastal border between these two countries. In western Africa, there are three areas: one encompassing The Gambia, southern Senegal and Guinea-Bissau, a second in Sierra Leone, and a third covering eastern Côte d’Ivoire to central Nigeria. Happold (2013r) also marked a small area in Ethiopia. Our data (ACR 2016: 1153) suggest that M. condylurus might occur more extensively in Ethiopia, as well as in Tanzania and Mozambique, and also further to the north in West Africa. The distribution in southern DRC and Angola, however, might not be as extensive as proposed by Happold (2013r). Mops (Mops) congicus J.A. Allen, 1917 Fig. 27E–F Mops congicus J.A. Allen, 1917: 467. * Tadarida (Mops) congica J.A. Allen, 1917. 60 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 27. Distribution maps. A–B. Chaerephon russatus J.A.

Pan-African distribution. 61 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Besides the type specimen, Hayman et al. (1966: 65) mention one extra locality: Medje. Additional occurrences of this species are reported from Tandala (Sud-Ubangi Province), Yalosemba (Mongala Province) and Tshopo. Fahr (2013m: 508) indicated that congica was found at a few isolated localities from southern Cameroon (south of the Sanaga River), northern DRC (north of the Congo River) and Uganda. See also Mops (Mops) trevori J.A. Allen, 1917 below. Mops (Mops) demonstrator (Thomas, 1903) Fig. 28A–B Nyctinomus demonstrator Thomas, 1903: 504. * Tadarida (Mops) demonstrator (Thomas, 1903). For this species, Hayman et al. (1966: 65) mention a number of localities in or near the Garamba National Park (Haut-Uélé Province). A number of specimens they mentioned as Tadarida (Mops) niveiventer from Keyberg (near Lubumbashi, Haut-Katanga Province) were re-identiied by R.L. Peterson (Wim Wendelen, pers. comm.). This is rather strange as Fahr (2013n: 510) indicates that demonstrator only occurs in the northeastern part of the DRC, northwards along the River Nile to northern South Sudan and along the Blue Nile in Sudan. He also plotted a number of individual localities in Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana and Burkina Faso. All of these are north of the equator. However, there is one additional specimen from Mushe, Rwanda (RMCA 37983), which more or less bridges the gap between HautUélé and Haut-Katanga. Based on climatic data, the SDM map makes the extension towards Rwanda conceivable, but a further expansion to Haut-Katanga is still dubious. Mops (Mops) midas (Sundevall, 1843) Fig. 28C–D Dysopes midas Sundevall, 1843 (for 1842): 207. * Tadarida (Mops) midas (Sundevall, 1843). Hayman et al. (1966: 66, map 103) reported specimens from in and near the Garamba National Park (Haut-Uélé Province), from Mwiga and Kamohohora (Nord-Kivu Province) and from Uvira (Sud-Kivu Province). There is one additional specimen from the Garamba Park, which apparently was overlooked by Hayman et al., as were two further specimens from Bwamanda (Sud-Ubangi Province). These two latter specimens are also not plotted by Cotterill & Happold (2013c: 519) on their distribution map. This map indicates that M. midas occurs in a large number of isolated areas and individual localities, primarily in the eastern and southern part of Africa, and in two small areas in northern Cameroon and southern Burkina Faso, and one locality in northern Senegal. The SDM map also shows a patchy distribution, but nevertheless more extensive, especially in southern Africa, but also in the northern part of the distribution area, extending more northwards than suggested by Cotterill & Happold (2013c: 519). Mops (Mops) niangarae J.A. Allen, 1917 Fig. 28E–F Mops niangaræ J.A. Allen, 1917: 468. * Tadarida (Mops) niangarae J.A. Allen, 1917. As indicated by Happold (2013u: 522) the speciic status of Mops niangarae remains uncertain. Hayman et al. (1966: 66) considered it a separate species, but noted that Koopman (1965: 25) already mentioned that it closely resembled M. congicus, except for the absence of a band connecting the ears. Hayman & Hill (1971: 60) also consider it a valid species, but refer to Peterson (in litt.), who believed the missing 62 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 28.

Pan-African distribution. 63 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) connection between the ears to be an artifact and thought that niangarae is identical to trevori, but not conspeciic with congicus [contrary to Happold (2013u: 522) and Simmons (2005: 443), who indicated that Hayman & Hill (1971) consider niangarae to be a subspecies of congicus]. Freeman (1981: 111) retained niangarae as a distinct species based on its more robust jaw and separated ears. This view is followed by Simmons (2005: 443), who suggested that a more formal revision of the trevori/congicus (and niangarae) complex is needed, but Thorn et al. (2009: 68) retain it as a synonym of M. trevori. Due to the fact that the species is only known from the type specimen, the general distribution map only shows a single locality mark. Mops (Mops) niveiventer Cabrera & Ruxton, 1926 Fig. 29A–B Mops angolensis niveiventer Cabrera & Ruxton, 1926: 594. * Tadarida (Mops) chitauensis J. Eric Hill, 1937: 2–3. * Tadarida (Mops) niveiventer (Cabrera & Ruxton, 1926). Aellen (1966: 71, map 98) reported six specimens from Elisabethville (= Lubumbashi) and Jadotville (= Likasi) in southeastern DRC. Hayman & Hill (1971: 60) considered chitauensis as a synonym of niveiventer, which was followed by Koopman (1975: 421), Freeman (1981: 160) and Simmons (2005: 443). Hayman et al. (1966: 65) did not provide a separate map for this species, but probably included the specimen on the map for Tadarida (Mops) condylura (map 99). They reported the species from Astrida (= Butare, Rwanda), Samba (Maniema Province), a number of localities around Elisabethville (= Lubumbashi) and Jadoville (= Likasi) in Haut-Katanga Province, and from Luluabourg (= Kananga, Kasaï-Central Province). Additional records were found from Rwanda, Burundi, the area around Kananga and the area around Kikwit (Kwilu Province). Cotterill (2013g: 526) mentioned that niveiventer is found in wetter savannas (miombo woodland). On his map, he marked an area covering southeastern DRC, western Zambia and extreme eastern Angola and a second area on the border between Zambia and northwestern Mozambique. Furthermore, he plotted a number of individual localities in Rwanda, the DRC, Zambia and Angola. Our map suggests a more uniform distribution from central Angola, the entire territory of Zambia and reaching the western part of Malawi, and a second area connecting the remaining DRC localities with those in Rwanda and Burundi. Mops (Mops) trevori J.A. Allen, 1917 Fig. 29C–D Mops trevori J.A. Allen, 1917: 469. * Tadarida (Mops) congica J.A. Allen, 1917. Hayman et al. (1966: 65) considered trevori to be a synonym (or – following Koopman 1965: 26 – at most as subspecies) of Tadarida (Mops) congica. However, based on size and subtle differences in the ear and facial features, Peterson (1972: 10) separated the smaller trevori from the larger congicus. This view was followed by Freeman (1981: 159, 160) and Simmons (2005: 444). Besides the type specimen, Hayman et al. (1966: 65) mention one extra locality: Iso.4 (RBINS 13826). As indicated above, however, this specimen was re-identiied as T. aloysiisabaudiae by Peterson (1972: 2), leaving the type specimen of M. trevori as the only representative of this species in the DRC. 64 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 29.

Distribution in the CRB area. B, D, F. Pan-African distribution. 65 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Happold (2013z: 538) marked the northeastern corner of the DRC and central Uganda as the core distribution area for trevori, with some further individual localities in Guinea, eastern Côte d’Ivoire, western Ghana, and western Nigeria. A record from the Central African Republic needs further investigation as it might represent either congica or trevori (Fahr 2013m; Happold 2013z). Concerning the habitat preferences of the two species, Peterson (1972: 17) stated that trevori is a forest edge or open forest dweller. Subgenus Xiphonycteris Dollman, 1911 Mops (Xiphonycteris) brachypterus (Peters, 1852) Fig. 29E–F Dysopes brachypterus Peters, 1852: 59. * Tadarida (Mops) leonis (Thomas, 1908): 373. Following El-Rayah (1980, 1981), Simmons (2005: 442) and Happold (2013q: 501), we consider leonis to be a synonym of brachypterus. Hayman et al. (1966: 66, map 102) report T. (M.) leonis from six localities, of which we were unable to trace the underlying BMNH specimens for the three southernmost records (Sud-Kivu Province). The three other localities are in the northeastern part of the DRC (Nord-Kivu, Haut-Uélé and Tshopo Provinces). The species was further reported from the northwestern part of the country (Yalosemba, Mongala Province and Tandala, Sud-Ubangi Province), but also from the southwestern part (Thysville [= Mbanza-Ngungu], Kongo Central Province and Léopoldville [= Kinshasa]). These last four localities were not plotted on the distribution map presented by Happold (2013q: 502). On her map, she painted four areas where this species occurs: northeastern DRC (with two individual localities in Uganda), the east African coast (from Malindi in Kenya to Mozambique Island), coastal West Africa (from Sierra Leone to western Togo, and from western Nigeria to Equatorial Guinea) expanding to the western part of the Central African Republic. The SDM map shows an almost similar image, although the western DCR records connect Happold’s northeastern DRC area with the West African one. Mops (Xiphonycteris) nanulus J.A. Allen, 1917 Fig. 30A–B Mops (Allomops) nanulus J.A. Allen, 1917: 477. * Tadarida (Mops) nanula (J.A. Allen, 1917). This species was reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 66, map 104) from nine localities in the northeastern, southeastern and southwestern parts of the DRC. The specimens from Butembo (Nord-Kivu Province) were re-identiied by Frits De Vree as belonging to M. (X.) spurrelli. Additional specimens were reported from the Kikwit area (Kwilu Province), Lulimbi (Nord-Kivu Province), the Isa River (Ituri Province), and Aba (Haut-Uélé Province). All of these are in the same general area. However, M. (X.) nanulus was also collected at Yalosemba (Mongala Province) and Tandala (Sud-Ubangi Province) in the northwestern part of the DRC. These two latter localities were not included on the map presented by Happold (2013t: 521). Her map shows a patchy distribution, with two major areas in the DRC: one in the southwestern part of the country and a second reaching from western South Sudan over northeastern DRC through Uganda to western Kenya. Furthermore, there are smaller areas in the border area of southern Nigeria and Cameroon, southern Ghana and Sierra Leone, as well as individual localities along the border of Liberia and Côte d’Ivoire and between Benin and Nigeria, in Cameroon, and western Ethiopia. Our Pan-African distribution map suggests that the species can occur from Sierra Leone to Togo and from southern Nigeria over Cameroon, northern Congo, southern Central African Republic, northern DRC, southern South Sudan and Uganda to western Kenya, and as well as from Cameroon, eastern Gabon, central Congo into southwestern and southcentral DRC. 66 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 30.

Xiphonycteris spurrelli Dollman, 1911. Although Hayman et al. (1966: 8) did not mention this species explicitly in their ‘Catalog of Species’, they do include it with a question mark in their ‘Nominal List of Congo Bats’, and in their key, referring to Koopman (1965: 31), who tentatively identiied a skin from Luluabourg (= Kananga, Kasaï Central Province) as belonging to this species. The specimens from Butembo (Nord-Kivu Province) were reported as Tadarida (Mops) nanula, but were re-identiied as belonging to spurrelli (see above). Further specimens belonging to this species were collected in the northwestern part of the DRC: Yalosemba (Mongala Province) and Tandala (Sud-Ubangi Province). Happold (2013x: 533) ignored the record from Luluabourg and also missed out on the northwestern DRC records, mentioning it only from the northeastern part of the country. Furthermore, she also plotted individual localities from the Central African Republic, Equatorial Guinea, Togo, western Côte d’Ivoire and southern Guinea, and three small areas in Cameroon, southern Ghana and the border area between Sierra Leone and Liberia. The SDM map is very similar, but we suspect the areas to be more continuous north of the Central African rainforest and the record from Luluabourg suggests it also occurs south of the rainforest. Whether it occurs in the forest itself is not yet clear. Mops (Xiphonycteris) thersites (Thomas, 1903) Fig. 30E–F Nyctinomus thersites Thomas, 1903: 634. * Tadarida (Mops) thersites (Thomas, 1903). Hayman et al. (1966: 66, map 106) mentioned this species from ive localities: two in the northeast of the DRC (Avakubi, Tshopo Province and Medje, Haut-Uélé Province) and three in the southwestern part of the country (Luluabourg [= Kananga], Kasaï Central Province, Luebo, Kasaï Province and Ndwa, MaiNdombe Province). Additional specimens have been collected at a number of localities in Rwanda, in Kwilu Province (Mosenge and Kikwit), in Kongo Central Province (Banana), but also in Yalosemba and on the road between Bombanga and Bumba (Mongala Province) and Tandala (Sud-Ubangi Province), in the northwest of the DRC. Although the SDM map shows more red than the one presented by Happold (2013y: 536), it looks very similar, with a northern and southern-central branch in the DRC, passing around the Congolian rainforest. We, however, suspect that the two branches might reunite in the eastern part of the DRC. Genus Myopterus E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1818 Myopterus daubentonii Desmarest, 1820 Fig. 31A–B Myopterus daubentonii Desmarest, 1820: 132. * Myopterus albatus Thomas, 1915: 469. Koopman (1989: 9) indicated that he believed that the larger forms of the genus Myopterus (daubentonii, senegalensis and albatus) are all the same species. Adam et al. (1993: 317) suggested that M. albatus might only be a mere subspecies of M. daubentonii. This view was also followed by Simmons (2005: 446) and Fahr (2013i: 476). Besides the specimens from Bunia (Ituri Province), Niangara (Haut-Uélé Province) and the Uélé River mentioned by Hayman et al. (1966: 68, map 113), no further representatives 68 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 31. Distribution maps. A–B. Myopterus daubentonii Desmarest, 1820. C–D. Myopterus whitleyi (Scharff, 1900). E–F. Otomops martiensseni (Matschie, 1897). A, C, E. Distribution in the CRB area. B, D, F. Pan-African distribution. 69 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) of this species are known from the CRB area. The distribution map provided by Fahr (2013i: 477) includes additional specimens from northern Central African Republic, Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal. Myopterus whitleyi (Scharff, 1900) Fig. 31C–D Mormopterus Whitleyi Scharff, 1900: 569. * Myopterus whitleyi (Scharff, 1900). Hayman et al. (1966: 68, map114) reported M. whitleyi from three localities: Léopoldville (= Kinshasa, Kinshasa City Province), Luluabourg (= Kananga, Kasaï Central Province) and Beno (Mai-Ndombe Province), all in the southwestern part of the DRC. Additional specimens were collected in the Kikwit area (Kwilu Province) and in Banana (Kongo Central Province), also in the southwestern part of the DRC. One further specimen, however, was collected in the northeastern part of the DRC: 10 km N of Kasenye (Ituri Province). Aellen (1952: 99) reported the species from Coquilhatville (= Mbandaka, Equateur Province), but that record could not be traced. The distribution map presented by Fahr (2013j: 478) shows two red areas: one encompassing the southwestern DRC records (except for Banana, which is plotted separately) and a second in coastal Nigeria/Cameroon (from the mouth of the Niger to the Mount Cameroon area). Furthermore, he plotted single localities in Ghana, the Central African Republic, Gabon, and Uganda. The SDM map looks very similar, although it doesn’t reach Ghana, as we were unable to trace the speciic locality for that country. The map also suggests that M. whitleyi does not occur in the Congolian rainforest, but encircles it both on the north and the south, and the two branches meet again in the Ugandan-Tanzanian border area. Genus Otomops Thomas, 1913 Otomops martiensseni (Matschie, 1897) Fig. 31E–F Nyctinomus martiensseni Matschie, 1897: 84. * Otomops martiensseni (Matschie, 1897). Otomops martiensseni was reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 68, map 112) from three localities in the eastern part of the DRC (Poko in Bas-Uélé Province, the Garamba National Park in Haut-Uélé Province and the Upemba National Park in Haut-Lomami Province) and from one locality in Rwanda (Kigali). Additional specimens were collected in Burundi (Rwegura and the Kibira National Park) and in southeastern DRC (Marungu, Tanganyika Province). Yalden & Happold (2013: 481) indicate that the distribution of this species in Africa is wide, but disjunct, with records from Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana in West Africa, the Central African Republic, DRC, Uganda, Rwanda and Angola in Central Africa, the RSA, Zimbabwe and Malawi in southern Africa, and a range along the border between Tanzania and Kenya, reaching to the border with Uganda. They also mark a few small areas in Ethiopia and Djibouti. However, the specimens from Ethiopia, Djibouti, Eritrea and Kenya have been found to represent a recently described species, Otomops harrisoni Ralph, Richards, Taylor, Napier & Lamb, 2015. Ralph et al. (2015: 27) also indicate that the range of their new species might include additional localities in Uganda, and their MapEnt map on page 17 suggests that this species also has a high probability of occurring in the CRB area. Genus Tadarida Rainesque, 1814 Tadarida fulminans (Thomas, 1903) Fig. 32A–B Nyctinomus fulminans Thomas, 1903: 501. * Tadarida (Tadarida) fulminans (Thomas, 1903). 70 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 32. Distribution maps. A–B. Tadarida fulminans (Thomas, 1903). C–D. Tadarida ventralis (Heuglin, 1861). E–F. Miniopterus fraterculus Thomas & Schwann, 1906. A, C, E. Distribution in the CRB area. B, D, F. Pan-African distribution. 71 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Hayman et al. (1966: 68, map 111) reported T. fulminans from two localities: Nyakibanda (Rwanda) and Rumangabo (Nord-Kivu Province). Additional specimens were collected from two further localities in Rwanda: Nyanza and Rukara. On the African continent, T. fulminans is restricted to eastern Africa, from Kenya to extreme northern RSA. On his distribution map, Cotterill (2013e: 512) marked three areas: on the border between Kenya and Uganda, in northeastern Zimbabwe, reaching into Mozambique and in northwestern Zimbabwe, reaching into Zambia. All other occurrences are individual localities. Based on climatic data, the SDM map indicates a potential wider occurrence in southeastern Africa and two areas in the northern part: one in northeastern DRC, reaching into Uganda and Rwanda, and another in western Kenya, with a corridor-like connection between the latter and the southern range. Tadarida ventralis (Heuglin, 1861) Fig. 32C–D Nyctinomus (Dysopes) ventralis Heuglin, 1861: 4, 11. * Tadarida (Tadarida) africana (Dobson, 1876): 348. Hayman et al. (1966: 67, map 107) reported that only one specimen was found in the CRB area: RMCA 29241 from Alima (Nord-Kivu Province). Until that time, T. africana was considered to be a valid species, occurring in southern Africa. Kock (1975: 6) discussed the features of an original specimen of Nyctinomus ventralis and concluded that africana is a synonym of ventralis. This view is followed by most recent authors. No further specimens from the CRB area were found. Cotterill (2001a: 201) indicates that T. ventralis has a wide and highly scattered distribution across eastern tropical Africa, which is conirmed by the distribution map presented by Cotterill (2013h: 539). The range covers a major part of western Kenya and the joining area in northern Tanzania. Furthermore, he marked individual localities in Eritrea, Ethiopa, South Sudan, DRC, Zambia, Malawi, northwestern Mozambique, Zimbabwe and possibly northeastern RSA. The SDM map looks very similar, although we excluded the RSA records, as we could not trace the speciic specimens. Family Miniopteridae Dobson, 1875 During a long period, the genus Miniopterus was considered to represent a separate subfamily within the Vespertilionidae. However, based on dental characters, the shape of the cranium, the double articulation of the humerus-scapulum, the length of the second phalanx of the third inger, the karyotype, the absence of a baculum and reproductive differences, Mein & Tupinier (1977: 210) suggested that the distinction should be made at the family level. This was later conirmed with molecular data (Hoofer & Van Den Bussche 2003: 1; Miller-Butterworth et al. 2007: 1553). Genus Miniopterus Bonaparte, 1837 As mentioned by Happold (2013ap: 711), representatives of the genus Miniopterus show a remarkable degree of morphological uniformity, which makes it dificult to identify the various forms. In continental Africa, she recognizes six species, of which we believe four occur in the CRB region. However, we cannot exclude that some of the specimens were erroneously identiied. Miniopterus fraterculus Thomas & Schwann, 1906 Fig. 32E–F Miniopterus fraterculus Thomas & Schwannn, 1906: 162. * Miniopterus schreibersi villiersi Aellen, 1956: 890. 72 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Koopman (1965: 18) refers to Harrison (1953: 71), who revised the Miniopterus forms of southern Africa, where he distinguished two species: “the large natalensis and the small fraterculus”. Unfortunately, however, this distinction doesn’t seem to hold (see key). Hayman et al. (1966: 59–60) assigned most of their material to Miniopterus schreibersi villiersi and only 15 specimens from two localities to M. s. vicinior. The latter are plotted on their map 90, but no separate map was presented for M. s. villiersi. Apparently, these specimens were included on map 88 (M. inlatus). In “Mammals of Africa”, Bernard & Happold (2013d: 713; 2013e: 719) restrict M. fraterculus to the northwestern part of the DRC and M. natalensis to the southeastern part. We are following this division for the CRB material, with specimens from the DRC provinces of Haut-Uélé, Ituri, Nord-Kivu, and Sud-Kivu, as well as from Rwanda and Burundi being assigned to M. fraterculus and those from the provinces of Tanganyika, Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga to M. natalensis. However, we also assigned records from more southwestern localities to the latter species: Luluabourg (= Kananga, Kasaï-Central Province) and near Thysville (= Mbanza-Ngongo, Kongo Central Province). See also Miniopterus natalensis (A. Smith, 1833) below. Miniopterus inlatus Thomas, 1903 Fig. 33A–B Miniopterus inlatus Thomas, 1903: 634. * Miniopterus inlatus rufus Sanborn, 1936: 112. With the exception of FMNH 152883 and 152884 from 32 km SE of Mbuji-Mayi (Kasaï Oriental Province), all other specimens are from the eastern part of the CRB area (DRC provinces of Haut-Uélé, Ituri, Tanganyika, Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga; Rwanda and Burundi). Happold (2013aq: 715) indicated that M. inlatus occurs widespread south of the Sahara, but mostly in isolated localities. Contrary to her map, we excluded the specimens from Ethiopia, as we follow Peterson et al. (1995: 120), Lavrenchenko et al. (2004b: 144), Simmons (2005: 519) and Juste et al. (2007: 28) in considering africanus as a separate species. We also believe that the species occurs far further to the south, into the RSA. Miniopterus minor Peters, 1867 Fig. 33C–D * Miniopterus minor Peters, 1867 (for 1866): 870. Hayman et al. (1966: 60) reported M. minor from one locality: Thysville (= Mbanza Ngungu, Kongo Central Province). Two specimens from caves near Thysville (RMCA 10061, 22501) were originally identiied as M. schreibersi villiersi, but were re-identiied as M. minor, and this was also the case for a specimen from Kisala (INPBC W1462). All these localities are in the extreme western part of the DRC. Happold (2013ar: 717) indicates that M. minor is distributed over three areas in continental Africa: on São Tomé, in western DCR and southwestern Congo and in the coastal boundary area between Kenya and Tanzania. The species is furthermore also reported from the Central African Republic, the Comoro Islands and from Madagascar (ACR 2016: 1191). Miniopterus natalensis (A. Smith, 1833) Fig. 33E–F Vespertilio Natalensis A. Smith, 1833: 59. * Miniopterus natalensis arenarius Heller, 1912: 2. 73 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Fig. 33. Distribution maps.

Pan-African distribution. 74 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited * Miniopterus schreibersi vicinior J.A. Allen, 1917: 450. * Miniopterus schreibersi villiersi Aellen, 1956: 890. Originally described as a subspecies of breyeri, vicinior was moved to M. natalensis by Sanborn (1936: 110). However, most later authors assigned the form to M. schreibersi, but we follow Simmons (2005: 521) and Monadjem et al. (2013: 138), who included it back in M. natalensis. On the other hand, Thorn et al. (2009: 49) included vicinior specimens from Uganda in M. fraterculus. Aellen (1956) described villiersi as a subspecies of M. inlatus. Most recent authors, though, include it in M. schreibersii, but Fahr et al. (2006: 173), Decher et al. (2010: 170) and Schaer et al. (2013: 17416, suppl. 1) consider it a valid species, restricted to western Africa. Decher et al. (2016: 274, 276) are a bit dubious in using M. inlatus villiersi in their systematic review and M. villiersi in their discussion sections. Furthermore, Anciaux de Faveaux (1978a: 479) mentioned that he originally assigned all of his material to either Miniopterus inlatus villiersi or Miniopterus natalensis, but that – according to Felten and Aellen – actually almost all of his specimens belonged to Miniopterus schreibersi natalensis. Based on this, we consider the DRC villiersi specimens to represent M. natalensis. See also Miniopterus fraterculus Thomas & Schwann, 1906 above. Family Vespertilionidae Gray, 1821 Simmons (2005) subdivided the African Vespertilionidae into four subfamilies: Kerivoulinae, Myotinae, Vespertilioninae and Miniopterinae. The latter has been raised to family level (see above), whereas Koubínová et al. (2013: 9) distinguished one additional subfamily: Scotophilinae. Subfamily Kerivoulinae Miller, 1907 Genus Kerivoula Gray, 1842 Kerivoula argentata Tomes, 1861 Fig. 34A–B * Kerivoula argentata Tomes, 1861: 31–32. Eight specimens from three localities in the southern part of the DRC were mentioned by Hayman et al. (1966: 58, map 84). More recently, one additional specimen was collected much more to the north in Boende (Tshuapa Province). The map given by Cotterill (2013i: 726) indicates that the core distribution area for K. argentata covers western Mozambique, eastern Zimbabwe, southern Malawi, southeast to northwest Zambia and southeastern DRC. Furthermore, he plotted some individual localities in the RSA, Namibia, Tanzania, Kenya, Angola (?) and Luluabourg (= Kananga) in the DRC. Our distribution map (based on data from ACR 2016: 1199) suggests a distribution which is restricted to the southeastern part of the continent, reaching from the northeastern part of the RSA to southern Kenya, whereby the records from Luluabourg and Boende seem to be located too far to the northeast and should probably be re-examined. Kerivoula cuprosa Thomas, 1912 Fig. 34C–D Kerivoula cuprosa Thomas, 1912: 41. In the DRC, Kerivoula cuprosa is known from three localities: Koteli (Bas-Uélé Province), Eala (Equateur Province) and Wafanya (Tshuapa). The specimens from Koteli and Eala were reported as K. smithii by Hayman et al. (1966: 59), but were re-identiied by Jakob Fahr as K. cuprosa (Fahr 2013r: 728). Kityo et al. (2009: 135) indicate that four cuprosa specimens were reported by Schouteden (1947): 75 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Eala, Koteli, Bambesa and Lisala, but were not discussed by Hayman et al. (1966). However, three of these were explicitly included in K. smithii by Hayman et al. (1966: 59), and the remaining one (RMCA 14263) in reality came from Gumba in the Lisala Territory. RMCA 14263 actually includes two specimens, one of which was identiied as a Nycteris sp. by Danny Meirte and one as a Kerivoula sp. by Jakob Fahr (Wim Wendelen, pers. comm.). Besides the three currently reported DRC localities, Fahr (2013r: 728) also mentions this species from Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire and Guinea. The SDM map shows that cuprosa is restricted to the central African rain forest block, but this should probably be extended to the West African block as well (the records from Côte d’Ivoire and Guinea were not included when generating this map, as the underlying specimens could not be traced). Kerivoula lanosa (A. Smith, 1847) Fig. 34E–F Vespertilio lanosus A. Smith, 1847: pl. 50 and text. * Kerivoula harrisoni muscilla (Thomas, 1906): 294. * Kerivoula harrisoni lucia (Hinton, 1920): 240. Rosevear (1965: 307–308) doubted the validity of the characters separating harrisoni from lanosa, i.e., the number of cusps of the upper incisors (two in harrisoni and one in the other species) and the length of the rostrum (comparing c-m3 with m3-m3, the irst being greater than the second in harrisoni and smaller in the other species). This was further investigated by Hill (1977: 628), who considered harrisoni to be a subspecies of lanosa. Hayman et al. (1966: 58, map 86) mention three specimens from the eastern part of the DRC: one from Pawa (Haut-Uélé Province) [considered to belong to K. harrisoni bellula Aellen, 1959 by Aellen 1959: 225], one from Lukulu (Tanganyika Province) and one from Funda Biabo (Lualaba Province). One additional specimen was collected along the road between Kamituga and Kampene in Sud-Kivu Province. The SDM map conirms the distribution suggested by Cotterill (2013j: 730), who mentions it is known from widespread, scattered records in the rain forest, the northern rain forest-savanna mosaic, Somalia-Masai bushland, coastal forest mosaic, Zambezian woodland, Afromontane-Afroalpine and south-west Cape biotic zones, but we suggest it might occur further to the west in northern Namibia and south-central to coastal Angola. Kerivoula phalaena Thomas, 1912 Fig. 35A–B Kerivoula phalæna Thomas, 1912: 281. * Kerivoula phalaena Thomas, 1912. Although not separately listed in their catalog part, Hayman et al. (1966: 57) refer to this species, as Koopman (1965: 31) mentioned a specimen from Lukolela (Mai-Ndombe Province) in the AMNH. Two additional specimens have been collected since then: one from Wafanya (Tshuapa Province) and one from Irangi (Sud-Kivu Province). Fahr (2013t: 732) indicated that K. phalaena is mainly recorded from the rainforest zones in western and central Africa, with outlying records from the AfromontaneAfroalpine zones in northeastern DRC and western Uganda and from the Guinea Savanna BZ in Côte d’Ivoire. This is conirmed by our map, which is based on climatic data and suggests that K. phalaena might occur even further to the east. Kerivoula smithii Thomas, 1880 Fig. 35C–D Kerivoula Smithii Thomas, 1880: 166. 76 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 34. Distribution maps. A–B.

PanAfrican distribution. 77 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) * Kerivoula smithi Thomas, 1880. * Kerivoula ? aerosa Tomes, 1858: 333. Hayman et al. (1966: 58) mention a specimen from Bukavu (RMCA 23172; Sud-Kivu Province) as possibly belonging to “K. aerosa”. They also indicated that there is some doubt about the African origin of the types of this species. As aerosa is currently assigned to the mainly southeast Asian genus Phoniscus, it has been suggested that they actually came from the Malay Archipelago (Happold 2013as: 735). In the meantime, the Bukavu specimen has been re-identiied by Jakob Fahr as belonging to K. smithii. He also re-identiied three other animals: one from Koteli (RMCA 16190; Bas-Uélé Province), one from Eala (RMCA 16189; Equateur Province) and one from Gumba Island (RMCA 14263; Mongala Province). The two former represent K. cuprosa, whereas the latter could only be identiied as Kerivoula sp. We also report four additional localities: Kalehe Territory (Sud-Kivu Province), Ukaika (Ituri Province), Aketi (Bas-Uélé Province) and Wafanya (Tshuapa Province), with the exception of the latter all in the northeastern part of the DRC. Fahr (2013u: 733) indicates that K. smithii is primarily found in the rain forest zones of southeastern Nigeria to the DRC and from the Afromontane-Afroalpine and the SomaliaMasai bushland zones in Kenya. The SDM map conirms this view. Subfamily Myotinae Tate, 1942 Genus Myotis Kaup, 1829 Myotis bocagii (Peters, 1870) Fig. 35E–F Vespertilio Bocagii Peters, 1870: 125. * Myotis bocagei (Peters, 1870). * Myotis bocagei bocagei (Peters, 1870). * Myotis bocagei hildegardeae Thomas, 1904: 209. * Myotis bocagei cupreolus Thomas, 1904: 407. Besides 40 specimens identiied to the speciic level, Hayman et al. (1966: 51) recognized three subspecies, of which hildegardeae is currently included in the nominate subspecies. This agrees with a statement made by Hayman [in Fain 1953: 99]: “ … since the more specimens [of M. b. hildegardeae] I see, the less I think it possible to maintain hildegardeae as a valid race”. Happold (2013an: 692) indicates that M. b. bocagii occurs in the woodland savannah from Ethiopia to Angola and the former Transvaal, and M. b. cupreolus in the rainforest from Liberia to the DRC. In the CRB area, Hayman et al. (1966, map 68) reported M. bocagii from the eastern part (provinces Bas-Uélé, Haut-Uélé, Ituri, Nord-Kivu, SudKivu, Tanganyika, Haut-Lomami and Haut-Katanga), Rwanda, and from the western part (provinces Kongo Central, Kinshasa and Kwilu) of the DRC. They did not report any specimens from the more central areas or from the northwestern part of the country. We were able to trace specimens from the latter area and from almost all of the northern half of the country, as well as from Rwanda and Burundi, but none from the south-central provinces (Kasaï-Central, Kasaï Oriental, Lualaba). The distribution map given by Happold (2013an: 693) doesn’t include any of the additional northern specimens and, therefore, separates the eastern distribution patches from the western ones. Our map suggests that both are connected and that only the border zone between the DRC and Angola might not be an optimal habitat for M. bocagii. Myotis tricolor (Temminck, 1832) Fig. 36A–B Vespertilio tricolor Temminck, 1832: 106. * Myotis tricolor (Temminck, 1832). 78 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 35.

Pan-African distribution. 79 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) In general, M. tricolor primarily occurs in eastern and southern Africa, from Ethiopia to the RSA, only touching the eastern border of CRB (Bernard 2013: 707). The record from a cave near Thysville (RMCA 16450; Hayman et al. 1966: 52) is, therefore, already far to the west, but not impossible as Koopman (1989: 7) reported a specimen from Liberia, and ACR (2016: 1207) reported another from Nigeria. Myotis welwitschii (Gray, 1866) Fig. 36C–D Scotophilus welwitschii Gray, 1866: 211. * Myotis welwitschi venustus (Matschie, 1899). The validity of the subspecies venustus was already doubted prior to Hayman et al. (1966), e.g., by Kershaw (1922: 181) and Frechkop (1954: 19), and this view was later conirmed by Kock (1967: 324). In the DRC, Hayman et al. (1966: 52, map 71) reported this species from Nord-Kivu Province in the east and from the southeastern provinces of Haut-Lomami, Haut-Katanga and Lualaba. More recently, it has been found in Rwanda and Burundi. Happold (2013ao: 709) gives a patchy distribution in eastern and southern Africa, from Ethiopia to the RSA, with an extension into the southern part of the DRC and Angola. She also plotted two separate localities in Guinea and Cameroon. Subfamily Scotophilinae Gray, 1866 Genus Scotophilus Leach, 1821 Scotophilus dinganii (A. Smith, 1833) Fig. 36E–F Vespertilio Dinganii A. Smith, 1833: 59. * Scotophilus nigrita (Schreber, 1775): 58. * Scotophilus nigrita herero Thomas, 1906: 174. As indicated below, S. nigrita was erroneously used to identify the medium-sized African Scotophilus species. Robbins (1978: 212) showed that the correct name for this species should be S. dinganii. Hayman et al. (1966: 57, map 83) reported “S. nigrita” from over almost the entire DRC and from northern Rwanda, with the exception of the northwestern part of the DRC and the most central part. Here, we include additional specimens from the northwestern, southwestern and southeastern parts of the country as well as from Rwanda and Burundi. This still leaves the central part of the DRC unoccupied by this species. The only central DRC record is a specimen from Boende (Tshuapa Province), but this is a juvenile specimen, which is probably too young to be identiied with certainty. Furthermore, we removed a number of localities from the northeastern part of the DRC as the underlying specimens belonged to the next species. Happold (2013am: 674) based her distribution map on data from Robbins et al. (1985: 63), which resulted in a rather detailed map with a lot of inger-like extrusions and areas which almost touch one another. We believe that the species has a wider distribution, only lacking in eastern Somalia, southern Namibia and most of the RSA and probably also from the west and central African rainforest as mentioned by Happold. However, we need to point out that some of the east African records might need to be reassigned to a separate species, e.g., S. colias as was tentatively suggested by Vallo et al. (2011: 350). 80 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 36. Distribution maps. A–B. Myotis tricolor (Temminck, 1832). C–D. Myotis welwitschii (Gray, 1866).

Hayman et al. (1966: 56–57, map 82) mention one locality in the DRC (Faradje, Haut-Uélé Province), and refer to Koopman (1965: 17) who indicated that Pachyotus altilis (the name under which Allen 1917: 447 reported these specimens) is a synonym of S. l. leucogaster. Allen (1917) and Hayman et al. (1966) report on two specimens, whereas the AMNH catalog mentions three. The third specimen (AMNH 49283, a foetal specimen) has the same original number (1865) as AMNH 49015 (an adult female). Only one additional specimen has been reported since: MHNG 1896.016 from Mweya, Burundi. The map presented by Van Cakenberghe & Happold (2013i: 677) shows S. leucogaster to be present in a number of areas south of the Sahara: Senegal/Gambia; Guinea/Sierra Leone; Burkina Faso/northern Ghana to southwestern Chad; central Sudan; central Ethiopia; northeastern DRC; southwestern Zambia/northern Namibia/northern Botswana/western Zimbabwe. They also plotted individual records from Mauritania, Côte d’Ivoire, Central African Republic, Uganda, Kenya, western Angola and Namibia, and Mozambique. The SDM map suggests a sub-Saharan distribution, with a northward extention along the River Nile. The species probably will not occur in eastern Ethiopia, Eritrea or Somalia, in the central African rain forest or in southern Africa, except for the northeastern tip of the RSA and southern Mozambique. Scotophilus nigrita (Schreber, 1774) Fig. 37C–D Vespertilio Nigrita Schreber, 1774: 171. * Scotophilus gigas Dobson, 1875: 122. Until Robbins (1978: 212), the largest representative of the genus Scotophilus was called S. gigas, whereas this should be S. nigrita, a name that had been used for the medium-sized African form for decades. Unfortunately, this led to confusion that left its mark on a lot of subsequent publications, where it wasn’t always clear whether nigrita was used to designate the large or the medium-sized form. Hayman et al. (1966: 56, map 81) reported “S. gigas” from one locality: Albertville (= Kalemie) in Tanganyika Province. The only other specimen from the CRB area was collected in Bujumbura, Burundi. With the exception of two small areas in Ghana, Happold (2013am: 679) only plotted individual localities on her distribution map, which shows a major gap between the locality in western Nigeria (the easternmost for West Africa) and central Sudan. Further to the south, there are records from the DRC, coastal Kenya and Tanzania, and Mozambique. ACR (2016: 1120) provides some additional records from Niger, northern Cameroon, Sudan and South Sudan, which more or less bridge the gap between West Africa and Sudan, and which also may conirm the assignment of the Sudanese specimens to the nominate subspecies as mentioned by Happold (2013am: 678). The SDM map also suggests that such a connection might well be possible through the Central African Republic and central Cameroon or through central Chad and northern Cameroon. Although the species hasn’t been conirmed from the central African rainforest, its occurrence in the West African forest block makes it plausible. Scotophilus nux Thomas, 1904 Fig. 37E–F * Scotophilus nigrita nux Thomas, 1904: 208. 82 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 37. Distribution maps. A–B.

Pan-African distribution. 83 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Thomas (1915: 468) already mentioned “The conspicuous difference between the colour of S. nux and that of all forms of S. nigrita makes me now think that it should be recognized as a distinct species, and not merely a subspecies of the older known form.” This view, however, was ignored by most subsequent authors, until it was resurrected by Robbins (1983: 19) and Robbins et al. (1985: 53, 71). Hayman et al. (1966: 57) only mentioned specimens from the northeastern part of the DRC (BasUélé, Haut-Uélé and Ituri Provinces). One additional specimen was collected in Kongolo (Tanganyika Province) in southeastern DRC. Van Cakenberghe & Happold (2013j: 681) indicate that the species is recorded from the rainforest and the northern and eastern rainforest-savanna mosaics from Sierra Leone in the west to Cameroon, and from northwestern DRC to western Kenya. We agree with this distribution, although it occurs further to the south in the DRC than previously accepted. The climatic data used for the SDM map conirm that the gap between Cameroon and the DRC is probably due to insuficient sampling, as suggested by Van Cakenberghe & Happold. They also conirm the gap between southwestern Ghana and southern Nigeria, which might be linked to the “Dahomey Gap”, but further investigation in that area is needed to conirm this. Subfamily Vespertilioninae Gray, 1821 Genus Glauconycteris Dobson, 1875 Glauconycteris alboguttata J.A. Allen, 1917 Fig. 38A–B * Glauconycteris alboguttatus J.A. Allen, 1917: 449. The only known representatives of this species in the CRB area are the three specimens reported by Hayman et al. (48, 49, map 60) and one additional specimen from Yalosemba (Mongala Province; CM 86658) reported by Eger & Schlitter (2001: 7) and Thorn et al. (2009: 61). Besides these four specimens, Happold (2013aa: 564) indicates that the species also occurs in the coastal area of Cameroon. Based on climatic data, we suspect that the species can occur over the central African forest belt from southern Nigeria to Rwanda and Burundi. Glauconycteris argentata (Dobson, 1875) Fig. 38C–D Chalinolobus argentatus Dobson, 1875: 385. * Glauconycteris argentata (Dobson, 1875). Hayman et al. (1966: 49) mention 72 records for this species, of which at least one (RMCA 16213; Mukishi, Haut-Lomami Province) was re-identiied as G. variegata (Wim Wendelen, pers. comm.). They also they mentioned the same museum numbers for the series from Boma and Butembo. These numbers apply for the Butembo specimens and the correct numbers for the Boma series are 6571 to 6576 and 7250). Their map 61 contains two localities we cannot identify from the specimens they listed. One of these is most probably Ibembo (Bas-Uélé Province), where they reported G. beatrix (see map 62), and another one is in Kasaï Province. Within the CRB area, G. argentata occurs in three separate regions: one along the eastern border of the DRC (Ituri, Nord- and Sud-Kivu Provinces) and Rwanda and Burundi. A second region is at the mouth of the Congo River (Kongo Central Province), and a third runs from Mbandaka (Equateur Province) over Boende and Ikela (Tshuapa Province), Lodja (Sankuru Province) to Kananga (Kasaï-Central Province). This agrees very well with the map given by Happold (2013ab: 565), although she also cites the “Ibembo” record listed above. Extralimitally, the species occurs in the coastal areas of Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea, southwestern Kenya, northeastern Tanzania, northern Malawi and Angola.

Pan-African distribution. 85 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) suggests that G. argentata might be more widespread over central and eastern Africa, from southern Nigeria in the west to Kenya and Tanzania in the east, between 5° N and 10° S. Glauconycteris beatrix Thomas, 1901 Fig. 38E–F * Glauconycteris beatrix Thomas, 1901: 256. Glauconycteris beatrix was reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 49, map 62) from two localities in northern DRC: Ibembo in Bas-Uélé Province and Paulis (= Isiro) in Haut-Uélé Province. Additional specimens are reported from Irangi (Sud-Kivu), Aketi (Bas-Uélé), Wafanya (Tshuapa) and Kimbinga, near Kikwit (Kwilu). The specimens from Kimbinga were erroneously reported as Miniopterus minor by Van Cakenberghe et al. (2000: 308). Happold (2013ac: 566) only mapped the specimens from Irangi, and except for the coastal areas of Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea, she only plotted individual records for Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, southern Nigeria, Gabon and northern Angola. Our distribution map suggests that G. beatrix could occur in the forest belts of both West and Central Africa, ranging from Sierra Leone in the west to western Kenya in the east. Glauconycteris curryae Eger & Schlitter, 2001 Fig. 39A–B Glauconycteris curryi Eger & Schlitter, 2001: 2. This species is known from only seven specimens from ive rainforest localities in Cameroon and one in the DRC (Yalosemba, Mongala Province) (Eger 2013: 568). Glauconycteris humeralis J.A. Allen, 1917 Fig. 39C–D * Glauconycteris humeralis J.A. Allen, 1917: 448. Glauconycteris humeralis was considered to be a valid species by Hayman et al. (1966: 49), but some later authors (e.g., Koopman 1971; Eger & Schlitter 2001; Monadjem et al. 2010b) considered it to be a subspecies of G. beatrix. Heller et al. (1994: 6) state that humeralis could merely represent the spotted variety of beatrix, if it wasn’t for the different form of the baculum in the two species, as was already illustrated by Hill & Harrison (1987: Fig. 19). Hayman et al. (1966: 49, map 63) mention six specimens from three localities, of which the BMNH specimen from Irangi could not be traced. However, the species has been conirmed from that locality by material in the collection of the SMF. All of these localities were in the northeastern part of the DRC. Other specimens were collected near Epulu (Ituri Province, northeastern DRC) and Yalosemba (Mongala, northwestern DRC) and in Kananga (Kasaï-Central Province, southern DRC). The latter specimen was apparently overlooked by Happold (2013ad: 571), as she only plotted the northern specimens. When the Kananga specimen is included, the distribution of the species covers the Congolese rain forest from eastern Cameroon over northern Congo and reaching into the rainforestsavanna mosaic in Uganda and western Kenya (see also Happold 2013ad: 571). Glauconycteris poensis (Gray, 1842) Fig. 39E–F Kerivoula poensis Gray, 1842: 258. * Glauconycteris poensis (Gray, 1842). 86 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 39. Distribution maps. A–B. Glauconycteris curryae Eger & Schlitter, 2001. C–D. Glauconycteris humeralis J.A. Allen, 1917. E–F. Glauconycteris poensis (Gray, 1842). A, C, E. Distribution in the CRB area. B, D, F. Pan-African distribution. 87 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) In the DRC, G. poensis was collected at four localities in the northern half of the country, two in the northwestern part that were already reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 49, map 64), and two from the northeastern part. The one from Irangi (Nord-Kivu Province) is a relatively recent one, but the one from Faradje (Haut-Uélé) was already collected by Lang and Chapin. Allen (1917) doesn’t report any G. poensis specimens in their collection, and the only Glauconycteris from Faradje that he mentions is G. papilio (= G. variegata). The original entry in the AMNH catalog mentions 15 G. papilio specimens from Niangara, Faradje and Aba, which were changed into Chalinolobus variegata (49056– 9), Glauconycteris variegata variegata (49060–4), Chalinolobus (Glauconycteris) variegata papilio (49065) and Glauconycteris variegata variegata (49066–70). The online catalog, however, mentions the entire series, with the exception of 49066, as Glauconycteris variegata variegata. That specimen is identiied as G. poensis. Happold (2013ae: 575) overlooked this record when drawing the map for this species. Her map indicates that G. poensis is primarily a West African species, with some outliers in the DRC. There is also a doubtful record from Marangu (Tanzania) of which J. Kingdon (in Grimshaw et al. 1995) suggests that it was misidentiied, and most likely belongs to G. variegata. The online catalog still mentions the underlying specimens (219772–4) as G. poensis. The SDM map indicates that this locality is situated far to the east, but it is not impossible that poensis could occur over there. Glauconycteris superba Hayman, 1939 Fig. 40A–B Glauconycteris superba Hayman, 1939: 219. * Glauconycteris superba superba Hayman, 1939. At the time of Hayman et al. (1966) only two specimens of this remarkably coloured bat were known: the holotype of the species from the DRC and a specimen from Ghana, which was considered to belong to a separate subspecies, G. superba sheila Hayman, 1947. In 1972, a third specimen was collected in Côte d’Ivoire. In the next 40 years, not a single specimen of this species was found, but in 2012 two animals were collected: one in the Bangangai Game Reserve, South Sudan (Reeder et al. 2013), and one from Mbiye Island, near Kisangani, Tshopo Province, DRC (Gembu Tungaluna et al. 2013: 18). In 2015, another specimen was collected on Mbiye Island. This is the irst time the species was collected at the same locality, suggesting that G. superba is not as rare as was assumed during the irst 40 years after its initial discovery. As if to conirm the previous statement, after the manuscript for this paper was submitted, Ing et al. (2016) and Hassanin et al. (2017) reported on ten additional specimens from Mbiye island and the Yoko Forest Reserve (00°17′ N, 25°17′ E). Hassanin et al. (2017) also described a new species of Glauconycteris, which is not covered in the current paper. Based on a number of morphological characters, Reeder et al. (2013) created a separate genus for superba: Niumbaha. These characters include the considerably larger skull; more striking body patterns; not excessively foreshortened (i.e., longer) rostrum; more robust muzzle; unreduced relative canine size; unelongated wing tips (second phalanxes); more robust, subquadrangular ears, with a larger free lobe at the inner margin; a more strongly curved tragus; position of the nostrils. Although these are quite important differences, we remain reluctant to follow Reeder et al. (2013) in separating superba from the genus Glauconycteris, due to the fact that the morphological characters were probably only examined on one specimen and some of them might be the result of the large size of superba. The rejection of Niumbaha as a separate genus is conirmed by the DNA analyses by Hassanin et al. (2017). Given the fact that G. superba was rarely collected in the past, it is very dificult to assess its general distribution. The SDM map suggests that it may occur in the forest zones of West and Central Africa. 88 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 40. Distribution maps. A–B.

Although most recent authors consider papilio to be a synonym of G. variegata (e.g., Simmons 2005) or even G. v. variegata (e.g., Lanza et al. 2015), Monadjem et al. (2010b: 417) – referring to a statement made by Hayman (1963: 107) on the possible speciic status of papilio – suggest that a detailed study of this species group is necessary to resolve this matter. For the DRC, Hayman et al. (1966: 50, map 66) indicate that G. variegata primarily occurs in the northeastern part of the country (Haut-Uélé and Nord-Kivu Provinces) and in the southeast (HautLomami and Haut-Katanga Provinces). From the western part of the country, they report it from Boma (Kongo Central Province) and Kwamouth (Mai-Ndombe Province). The second record they mapped from Kongo Central Province could not be traced, but they also did not map Mbala in Tanganyika Province. We could only add two additional localities: one on the northwestern bank of Lake Tanganyika (Sud-Kivu Province) and at Boteka (Equateur Province). The map given by Happold (2013af: 577) shows a very patchy distribution area stretching from Senegal to Somalia and southwards to northeastern RSA. Based on specimen data from ACR (2016: 1230) and climatic data, our distribution map ills in most of the gaps between the patches. Genus Hypsugo Kolenati, 1856 Hypsugo anchietae (Seabra, 1900) Fig. 40E–F Vesperugo Anchieta Seabra, 1900: 26. Two specimens from Lubenge (Tanganyika Province) were re-identiied by the irst author as belonging to this species. Kearney (2013b: 611) indicates that the species occurs from southwestern to eastern Angola, and through southeastern DRC, western Zambia, Zimbabwe to eastern RSA and Swaziland, where it is found in riverine, coastal and scrub forests as well as bushveld biotopes. Hypsugo crassulus (Thomas, 1904) Fig. 41A–B * Pipistrellus crassulus Thomas, 1904: 206. As indicated by Fahr (2013q: 617) crassulus has been moved into various (sub)genera or “collective groups” over the past few years: Pipistrellus, P. (Vansonia), “Attalepharca”, Hypsugo and Nycticeinops. The currently most accepted view is that it belongs to the genus Hypsugo. Hayman et al. (1966: 52, map 72) reported it from two localities: Bokuma (Equateur Province) and Mulolo-Kisanga (Maniema Province), and more recently it was also found at Irangi (Sud-Kivu Province). The distribution map provided by Fahr (2013q: 618) only shows a very restricted red area covering the eastern parts of the Kivu Provinces reaching towards Maniema Province. Furthermore, there are single records from Guinea, in West Africa, over Côte d’Ivoire, southern Cameroon, northwestern DRC (the Bokuma record), northern Angola, southern South Sudan, southern Uganda and southwestern Kenya. Based on climatic data, the SDM map covers this area, but also suggests it might occur in Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, southern Congo, and southwestern and southeastern DRC. 90 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 41.

However, as already indicated by Van Cakenberghe & Happold (2013b: 622), the specimens from Lukolela do not agree with the type specimens of eisentrauti from Cameroon. And this is also the case for the animal from Rwanda. Huhndorf & Kaleme (2008: 26) and Kerbis Peterhans et al. (2013: 189) assigned the Kabobo Forest specimen to “H. cf. eisentrauti”. Tentatively, we assign this name to all of the DRC and Rwandan specimens. Hypsugo musciculus (Thomas, 1913) Fig. 41E–F * Pipistrellus musciculus Thomas, 1913: 316. Similar to H. crassulus, H. musciculus has been assigned to various supra-speciic units: Pipistrellus, P. (Hypsugo), “Attalepharca” and Hypsugo (see Van Cakenberghe & Happold 2013e: 637). Here, we follow Simmons (2005: 491) in assigning it to the genus Hypsugo. Hayman et al. (1966: map 74) have two localities plotted on their map: Bokuma in Equateur Province and Avakubi in Tshopo Province. For the latter, however, they refer (p. 53) to Koopman (1965: 13) who indicated that this specimen agreed better with the original description of P. nanulus than with that of P. musciculus. In the Paris museum, there is one other DRC specimen (from Bata, Kwilu Province) that had been identiied as musciculus. Hypsugo musciculus is primarily a West African species occurring from Sierra Leone in the west to Cameroon and Gabon in the east, with a few records extending into the DRC. Genus Laephotis Thomas, 1901 Laephotis angolensis Monard, 1935 Fig. 42A–B Laephotis angolensis Monard, 1935: 45. * Laephotis wintoni angolensis (Monard, 1935). At the time Hayman et al. (1966) was written, the genus Laephotis was considered to be monotypic (Hill 1974: 1), with the nominate subspecies restricted to Kenya and L. w. angolensis occurring in Angola, Zambia, Botswana and the southern part of the DRC. However, based on cranial characteristics, Peterson (1971a: 888) found the two to be speciically different. Laephotis angolensis was reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 50, map 67) with 13 specimens from two localities in Haut-Katanga, and no further localities have been added since. Of these 11 were found to represent L. botswanae (Kearney & Seamark 2005: 73). Extralimitally, the species is further known from Angola, Zimbabwe and Zambia. Laephotis botswanae Setzer, 1971 Fig. 42C–D Laephotis botswanae Setzer, 1971: 260. 92 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 42. Distribution maps. A–B.

Pan-African distribution. 93 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) This species was reported from two localities near Lubumbashi (Haut-Katanga Province) in the extreme southeastern part of the DRC. The distribution map provided by Kearney (2013a: 580) indicates that the species occurs in a number of scattered areas in southern Africa: southeastern DRC and northwestern Zambia, central and southern Zimbabwe reaching into northern RSA, northwestern Botswana and northeastern Namibia, southern Malawi, and in some individual localities in Angola, southeastern RSA and northern Malawi. Kearney (2013a: 580), however, also pointed out that the relationship between angolensis and botswanae is obscure, because of the scarcity of the former, but she also refers to Setzer (1971: 262), who indicated that the two species might possibly occur sympatrically. Genus Mimetillus Thomas, 1904 Mimetillus moloneyi (Thomas, 1891) Fig. 42E–F Vesperugo (Vesperus) Moloneyi Thomas, 1891: 528. * Mimetillus moloneyi (Thomas, 1891). Hayman et al. (1966: 50, map 68) mention this species from a number of localities in the northwestern part of the DRC (Bas- and Haut-Uélé, Ituri, Tshopo Provinces), but also from the southwestern Landana (“Lower Congo”). This last locality, however, is in Cabinda (Angola). The southern occurrence of M. moloneyi in the DRC is conirmed by records from Luluabourg (= Kananga) in Central Kasaï Province and Mosenge in Kwilu Province. These records were not included by Fahr (2013o: 587), who, therefore, plotted only a narrow band in the northern part of the DRC and individual localities in the border area between DRC, Uganda and Rwanda in the east, the border between the DRC and Zambia in the south and in Cabinda and the mouth of the Congo River in the west. He also stated that it is conspicuously absent from most of the central Congo Basin. Our additional records, however, suggest that it might be present in the fringes of the rain forest and other forest types and savannas reaching to the Kenyan and Tanzanian coast in the east and Sierra Leone and Guinea in the west. Mimetillus thomasi Hinton, 1920 Fig. 43A–B Mimetillus thomasi Hinton, 1920: 240. Although Fahr (2013o: 586) considers thomasi to be a subspecies of M. moloneyi, we follow Cotterill (2001b: 215), who proposed that the two are distinct evolutionary species, a view that was followed by Monadjem et al. (2010a: 390, 2010b: 444). The distribution map presented by Monadjem et al. (2010b: 444) indicates that M. thomasi occurs in the northern part of southern Africa, from Angola over southern DRC, Zambia and Zimbabwe to western and northern Mozambique. The DRC specimen from Elisabethville (= Lubumbashi, Haut-Katanga Province) reported here its within this range. Genus Neoromicia Roberts, 1926 Neoromicia brunnea (Thomas, 1880) Fig. 43C–D Vesperugo (Vesperus) brunneus Thomas, 1880: 165. One specimen belonging to this species was collected at Lukolela (Mai-Ndombe Province, northwestern DRC). Fahr (2013p: 613) indicates that this species has a West African distribution, covering an area along the coast of Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea, and individual localities in Sierra Leone, Liberia, Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana. ACR (2016: 1237), furthermore, mentions specimens from Congo, Gabon and Nigeria. The Lukolela specimen is the easternmost record of this species. 94 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 43. Distribution maps. A–B.

(1966: 46) already pointed to the confused status of the nomenclature of the small, darkwinged African members of the genus Eptesicus, where they indicated that E. capensis might include the following synonyms: garambae, minutus, grandidieri and possibly pusillus. Although the situation at the species level has been resolved, the supraspeciic (generic) assignment of the African taxa once considered to belong to either Eptesicus or Pipistrellus still remains uncertain. Currently, these taxa are assigned to Eptesicus, Pipistrellus, Neoromicia and Hypsugo, of which the former does not have representatives in the CRB area. One of the major reasons for this confusion is that there are hardly any morphological characters which easily distinguish these genera (see Van Cakenberghe & Happold 2013a: 600). Based on bacular morphology, Hill & Harrison (1987: 261) suggested that capensis should be transferred from the genus Eptesicus to the genus Pipistrellus and more speciically to the subgenus Neoromicia. Based on dental characters, Menu (1987: 33) placed capensis in the genus Nycterikaupius. Karyological data led Volleth et al. (2001: 25) to elevate the subgenus Neoromicia to generic rank. Distributionwise, Hayman et al. (1966: 46) provided data for four taxa: capensis, “garambae”, “grandidieri” and “minutus”, which were plotted on maps 54, 55, 56 and 57. The specimens identiied as belonging to the latter two taxa were only reported from the area of the Garamba National Park (Haut Uélé Province). Specimens belonging to capensis were reported from two additional localities in the northern part of the DRC and also from a number of localities in the southern former provinces of Katanga and Kasai, as well as from Léopoldville (= Kinshasa). The SDM map indicates that the core area of distribution for N. capensis is southern Africa, south of the DRC, but also that specimens have been reported from as far north as Guinea, Ghana, Togo and Cameroon in western Africa and South Sudan and Ethiopia in the east. The map provided by Kearney (2013c: 615) shows a gap in NE (sic) Angola / SW DRC, and one from the central DRC over Tanzania to Mozambique, which might relect insuficient sampling. However, she also left a gap between the DRC specimens and those from Cameroon, suggesting that the West African populations might be isolated from the remainder of the distribution area and represent another taxon. This might either be a different species or a form of capensis, which has not yet been named, as Kearney doesn’t mention any subspecies from that part of the continent. Neoromicia guineensis (Bocage, 1889) Fig. 44A–B Vesperus guineensis Bocage, 1889: 6. The two specimens assigned to this species were collected by Herbert Lang and James Paul Chapin, and were reported by Allen (1917: 445) as belonging to Eptesicus minutus minutus (Temminck, 1835). Hayman et al. (1966: 47) refer to these specimens as “Eptesicus minutus”, indicating that the name minutus was used in a tentative sense. However Rosevear (1965: 255) pointed out that minutus Temminck, 1835 is a synonym of Eptesicus capensis. Koopman (1965: 15) tentatively identiied these two specimens as Eptesicus pusillus, but Koopman (1975: 407) furthermore pointed out that pusillus was based on two sources: Leconte (1858) and Noack (1889). The former was found to be unidentiiable and the latter to be a synonym of Pipistrellus nanus. Koopman’s igure 39 indicates that the extralimital (to Sudan) specimen from northeastern DRC is considered to belong to Eptesicus guineensis. 96 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 44.

Pan-African distribution. 97 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Van Cakenberghe & Happold (2013d: 625) indicate that guineensis primarily occurs disjunctly north of the equator in a band from Senegal, Guinea, northern Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Burkina Faso, northern Togo and Benin, and in a second band on the border between Nigeria and Cameroon, reaching to southern Chad. Furthermore, it occurs in a few smaller areas in central Sudan, the border between South Sudan and Uganda and in northwestern DRC. There are also some isolated records from Liberia, Nigeria, and western and eastern Ethiopia. The identiications of the specimens from Congo and southern DRC were found to be erroneous. Neoromicia nana (Peters, 1852) Fig. 44C–D Vespertilio nanus Peters, 1852: 63. * Pipistrellus culex Thomas, 1911: 458. * Pipistrellus nanus nanus Peters, 1852. Although they followed Koopman (1965) in many of his other conclusions, Hayman et al. (1966: 52) did not follow Koopman’s view (1965: 12) on culex, which he tentatively considered a subspecies of P. stamplii (Jentink, 1888), but of which he also stated that it possibly only represents a small-sized population of P. nanus. Rosevear (1965: 268), Koopman (1966: 160) and Kock (1969: 170) considered culex to be a synonym of P. nanus. Over the past few decades Vespertilio nanus has changed genus a number of times (Happold 2013ah: 639): Pipistrellus, Neoromicia, Hypsugo. The current assignment to Neoromicia was based on karyotype data (Volleth et al. 2001: 44; Kearney et al. 2002: 55). Hayman et al. (1966: 52, 53–55, maps 73, 76) reported N. nana from all over the CRB area, and some of the gaps have been illed in with additional specimens. The only exception seems to be the central part of the DRC (the area around the Salonga National Park), but that might possibly be attributed to the impenetrability of the region rather than the real absence of the species. The SDM map looks very similar to the one presented by Happold (2013ah: 640), although we show a number of hatched areas where the climatic circumstances might not be optimal for the species, e.g., the central forest area in the DRC (but see above), the border area between the DRC and Angola, eastern Angola and western Tanzania. Neoromicia rendalli (Thomas, 1889) Fig. 44E–F Vesperugo (Vesperus) Rendalli Thomas, 1889: 362. * Eptesicus rendalli (Thomas, 1889). Hayman et al. (1966: 47, map 58) mention primarily specimens from the Garamba National Park area (Haut Uélé Province), and some single records from the provinces of Ituri, Tanganyika, Kasaï Central and Tshuapa. They also mention a specimen from Butembo (Nord-Kivu Province; RMCA 26585), but that specimen should be an Epomophorus anurus [= E. labiatus] (Wim Wendelen, pers. comm.). The patchy distribution map given by Van Cakenberghe & Happold (2013g: 646) shows three red zones in the CBR area: one in the northeastern part of the DRC reaching northern Rwanda, a second in the northwestern part on the boundary between the DRC, Congo and the Central African Republic and a third in the province of Haut-Lomami towards Kasaï. Based on climatic data, our general map suggests a more continuous sub-Saharan distribution from about 15° N to 15° S (following the borders between Angola / Namibia and Zambia / Botswana + Zimbabwe) and further south to southern Mozambique and Swaziland, with possibly the exception of the central Congolese rain forest. 98 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Neoromicia somalica (Thomas, 1901) Fig. 45A–B Vespertilio minutus somalicus Thomas, 1901: 32. Representatives of this species were collected at four localities, two in western DRC (Lukolela, MaiNdombe Province and Mbwambala, Kwilu Province), one in northeastern DRC (Mboga, Ituri Province), and one in Rwanda (Karama). The SMF has furthermore a specimen from a non-disclosed locality in the DRC. Van Cakenberghe & Happold (2013h: 654) show that the distribution area of somalica forms a narrow band from southern Senegal over Guinea, Sierra Leone, northern Côte d’Ivoire, southern Burkina Faso, Togo, Benin, Nigeria, northern Cameroon, Central African Republic, South Sudan, splitting up in a branch towards Ethiopia and northern Somalia and a second branch to Uganda, eastern Rwanda, northern Tanzania, southern Kenya and reaching into southern Somalia. There are also scattered records from Congo and the DRC and some uncertain records from southern Tanzania, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Angola and RSA. As indicated by Van Cakenberghe & Happold, some of these latter records might represent the N. zuluensis. Neoromicia tenuipinnis (Peters, 1872) Fig. 45C–D Vesperus tenuipinnis Peters, 1872: 236. * Eptesicus tenuipinnis (Peters, 1872). * Eptesicus tenuipinnis ater (J.A. Allen, 1917): 443. Hayman et al. (1966: 47, 48, map 59) showed that tenuipinnis was frequently captured in the southwestern part of the DRC (from Banana in Kongo Central Province to the area of Mbandaka in Equateur Province) and in the northeastern part (provinces of Bas-Uélé, Haut-Uélé, Ituri and NordKivu). In the southeast they reach Kabongo (northern Haut-Lomami Province). The species seems to be missing in the southeastern provinces of Haut-Katanga and Tanganyika. More recently, specimens were collected in the northwestern part of the country (Tandala, Sud-Ubangi Province and Yalosemba, Mongala Province), and in northern Rwanda and western Burundi. Fahr (2013r: 656) reported that tenuipinnis is recorded from the lowland rainforest, swamp forest and coastal forests as well as from montane forest, mangroves, forest-savanna mosaic, Isoberlinia woodland, Acacia-Commiphora bushland and thicket and miombo woodland. Within the rainforest, it seems to prefer drier types of forest along the periphery. Neoromicia zuluensis (Roberts, 1924) Fig. 45E–F Eptesicus zuluensis Roberts, 1924: 60. As mentioned above, confusion with N. somalica might have led to some mis-identiications. However, one specimen in the collection of the Zürich Museum from Mimuli (Rwanda) was identiied as belonging to this species. The distribution map presented by Happold et al. (2013: 658) indicates that the species seems to cover two major distribution areas, one covering the northeastern part of Uganda and the western part of Kenya, reaching into central Ethiopia, and a second reaching from the southeastern DRC over major parts of Zambia and Zimbabwe to northeastern and eastern Botswana and the northeastern RSA. They also indicate its presence at separate localities in eastern Kenya, Angola, Namibia, Malawi and central RSA. ACR (2016: 1264) furthermore mentions specimens from Mozambique, South Sudan and Swaziland. 99 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Fig. 45. Distribution maps. A–B.

Pan-African distribution. 100 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Genus Nycticeinops Hill & Harrison, 1987 Nycticeinops schlieffenii (Peters, 1860) Fig. 46A–B Nycticejus Schlieffenii Peters, 1860: 224. * Nycticeius (Scoteinus) schlieffeni Peters, 1860. * Nycticeius (Scoteinus) schlieffeni albiventer Thomas & Wroughton, 1908: 540. Based on the shape of the baculum, Hill & Harrison (1987: 254) created a new genus (Nycticeinops), which contains schlieffenii as the only species. Happold (2013ag: 595) indicated that four subspecies were recognized by Hayman & Hill (1971: 36), but these are of dubious validity. Hayman et al. (1966: 55–56, map 78) report schlieffenii from the northeastern part of the DRC, where they plotted three localities. Of these, Niangara needs to be removed as they stated on page 56 that Koopman (1965: 17) reassigned this specimen to Scotoecus hirundo hindei. Furthermore, Hayman et al. (1966) mention specimens from the southeastern part of the DRC (Tanganyika, Haut-Katanga and HautLomami Provinces). The locality on Lake Tanganyika they mention is probably (Qua) Mpala, the type locality of Scotophilus minimus Noack, 1887, but this specimen could not be traced and is, therefore, not included here. More to the west, they also mentioned a specimen from Luluabourg. In the collection of the Tervuren museum, there is also an additional specimen from “Bas Congo” (RMCA 65b), which probably was overlooked by Hayman et al. (1966), as they report a Myotis bocagii from the same locality (RMCA 65). Recently, an additional specimen was collected by the team of the University of Kisangani at Aketi (Bas-Uélé Province). The map presented by Happold (2013ag: 595) shows two major distribution areas: the Sudanian woodlands in West Africa (from the Mauritanian-Senegalese border in the west to Nigeria and northern Cameroon in the east). The second area covers a major part of eastern Africa (from the coastal area in Sudan and Eritrea, splitting in two narrow stretches in Ethiopia, combining again to cover central Kenya, passing through central Tanzania to the southeastern DRC, Zambia, extending to the border between Angola and Namibia, Malawi, northern Zimbabwe, central and eastern Mozambique to the extreme northeastern RSA), also including a separate, small area in the northeastern DRC. The specimens reported here conirm the species’ presence in the two DRC regions, but also suggest that the species extends more to the west. Genus Pipistrellus Kaup, 1829 Pipistrellus grandidieri (Dobson, 1876) Fig 46C–D Vesperugo (Vesperus) grandidieri Dobson, 1876: 500. * Eptesicus grandidieri (Dobson, 1876). Although Hayman et al. (1966: 46) report six “Eptesicus grandidieri” specimens from the DRC, none of these actually belong to that species, but rather to Neoromicia capensis. However, two additional specimens from Resha (Burundi; SMF 57586 and 57587) were found to belong to grandidieri, so the species does occur in the CRB area. Thorn et al. (2007) re-evaluated the known material of grandidieri and concluded that this form should be assigned to a separate subgenus (Afropipistrellus) within the genus Pipistrellus. Van Cakenberghe & Happold (2013c: 623) present an extremely patchy distribution range, which covers a number of isolated localities ranging from the Nigerian/Cameroonian border to southern Somalia, and southwards to central 101 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) Fig. 46.

B, D, F. Pan-African distribution. 102 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Angola and southern Mozambique. Here, we extend the distribution to Guinea and Liberia in West Africa, where “Pipistrellus cf. grandidieri” was reported by Decher et al. (2016: 273). Pipistrellus hesperidus (Temminck, 1840) Fig. 46E–F Vespertilio hesperida Temminck, 1840: 211. This species used to be included in Pipistrellus kuhlii, but as found by Göpfert et al. (1995: 68) and Volleth et al. (2001: 28), the sub-Saharan specimens have a different chromosome number than the specimens from Europe and northern Africa. For these sub-Saharan populations, Kock (2001: 277) reinstated the name hesperidus. Specimens belonging to this species were collected at three localities in the CRB area: two in Rwanda (Mutura and Kitabi) and one in Burundi (Nyamugari Hill). Kearney (2013d: 630) indicates that P. hesperidus is distributed in a narrow band in eastern Africa, reaching from southwestern Eritrea, over western Ethiopia, eastern South Sudan to northern Uganda, where it splits into two branches, one along the Kenyan-Tanzanian border reaching the coast, and a second along the great lakes to eastern Zimbabwe and the eastern RSA, reaching just north of Port Elizabeth. Additionally, she marked the presence of the species in the Mount Cameroon area and in Djibouti, with some further individual localities in northeastern Somalia, western Zambia, Angola and southern RSA. Furthermore, she refers to Jakob Fahr, who indicated that some records from West Africa might be misidentiied. The SDM map conirms the presence of the species in eastern Africa. The records from West Africa might need to be re-examined. Pipistrellus nanulus Thomas, 1904 Fig. 47A–B * Pipistrellus nanulus Thomas, 1904: 198. Hayman et al. (1966: map 75) plotted one specimen from Avakubi, which is actually the same specimen they plotted as “Pipistrellus musciculus” (see above). One additional record is from from Mosenge in Kwilu Province. The map given by Van Cakenberghe & Happold (2013f: 639) shows that P. nanulus primarily occurs in the savannas of Sudan and Guinea, the northern rainforest-savanna mosaic in West Africa (from Guinea to Togo and from southern Nigeria to Gabon, and from north-central Benin to central Nigeria) and in the eastern rainforest-savanna mosaic in northeastern DRC, Uganda and western Kenya. Based on additional material mentioned in ACR (2016: 1276), our distribution map covers a more continuous area from Senegal to western Kenya, with a small gap at the Dahomey Gap in western Africa. The map also shows that it could occur over almost the entire northern half of the DRC, with the exception of the central part. Pipistrellus rueppellii (Fischer, 1826) Fig. 47C–D Vespertilio Rüppelii J.B. Fischer, 1826: 109. * Pipistrellus (Scotozous) rüppelli (Fischer, 1826). * Pipistrellus (Scotozous) rüppelli fuscipes (Thomas, 1913): 315. Happold (2013ai: 648) mentions that fuscipes is the subspecies of P. rueppellii occurring from Ethiopia to northern Angola, which would cover the CRB area. Hayman et al. (1966: 55, map 77) report the species 103 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) from the northeastern part of the DRC (provinces Bas-Uélé, Tshopo, Ituri and Nord-Kivu), as well as from the southeast (Tanganyika and Haut-Katanga Provinces) and southwest parts (Kongo Central, Kasaï and Mai-Ndombe Provinces). The two additional records (RMCA 12247 from Mongbwalu and RMCA 993 from Lukula) were probably overlooked by Hayman et al. (1966), as these specimens were present in the Tervuren collection at the time. Happold’s (2013ai: 648) distribution map essentially shows the species following the River Nile southwards, along the great lakes to northern Zimbabwe and central Mozambique, speading in the southern part where it should occur over most of Zambia. Additionally, the species occurs in northern DRC, along the lower Congo River and up the Kasaï River; along the Moroccan-Algerian border crossing into the latter country; and along the Senegalese-Mauritanian border. Furthermore, there are some individual records from Egypt, Ethiopia, eastern Tanzania, Botswana, RSA, Angola, Gabon, Central African Republic, Chad, Nigeria, Libya, Tunisia and Morocco. The species seems to be lacking from West Africa, although climatic data used for the SDM map suggest that it might occur in that part of the continent. Genus Scotoecus Thomas, 1901 Scotoecus albofuscus (Thomas, 1890) Fig. 47E–F Scotophilus albofuscus Thomas, 1890: 84. * Nycticeius (Scotoecus) albofuscus woodi (Thomas, 1917): 280. Although Hayman et al. (1966: 56) considered Scotoecus to be a subgenus of Nycticeius, its generic status was already restored by Rosevear (1965: 246) and Koopman (1965: 17), who were followed by Hill (1974b: 171), Koopman (1993: 226, 1994: 127) and Simmons (2005: 461, 464). Only one specimen of this species has been reported from the CRB area up until now: RMCA 22412 from Baudouinville (= Moba), Tanganyika Province. It was irst mentioned by Hayman (1957: 44) and subsequently conirmed by Fain (1959: 161), Hill (1974b: 177), Anciaux de Faveaux (1983: 29), Monadjem et al. (2010b: 506) and Happold (2013aj: 668). The distribution map presented by Happold (2013aj: 668) clearly illustrates the rarity of this species in scientiic collections, as only individual records are plotted, with the exception of small areas in Sierra Leone and The Gambia. The species occurs from the latter country in West Africa to Northern Cameroon and then continuing from northwestern Uganda, over Tanzania, southeastern DRC and Mozambique to the RSA. This leaves a wide gap between Cameroon and Uganda. ACR (2016: 1283) mentions three specimens from the Central African Republic, which narrow this gap a bit, but it nevertheless remains wide. We concur with Ansell & Dowsett (1988: 43), who state that “this species is rarely collected, though it has a wide range from Senegal to southern Mozambique. It is no doubt more widespread in Malawi than the single recorded locality would indicate”, and believe this is also the case for many other countries. The SDM map suggests that S. albofuscus potentially can occur along the northern border of the DRC, where it can bridge the gap between the two areas where it has been found up until now. Scotoecus hindei Thomas, 1901 Fig. 48A–B Scotoecus Hindei Thomas, 1901: 264. * Nycticeius (Scotoecus) hirundo hindei (Thomas, 1901). 104 VAN CAKENBERGHE V. et al., The bats of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi revisited Fig. 47.

Pan-African distribution. 105 European Journal of Taxonomy 382: 1–327 (2017) The taxonomy of the dark-winged Scotoecus forms is not very clear. Pending a revision of this group, Happold (2013ak: 669) considers all the dark-winged Scotoecus to belong to one species: S. hirundo. However, we follow Ansell & Dowsett (1988: 44), Taylor & Van der Merwe (1998: 64), Cotterill (2001c: 219) and Simmons (2005: 464) in recognizing S. hindei as a separate species. Scotoecus hindei has only been reported twice from the DRC: once from the southeast of the country (Kapolowe, Haut-Katanga Province) and once from the northeast (Niangara, Haut-Uélé Province). Both were already mentioned by Hayman et al. (1966: 56). Since Happold (2013ak: 670) doesn’t recognize hindei as a separate species, our distribution map cannot be compared with hers. Based on the data in ACR (2016: 1283). The SDM map suggests a primarily eastern African distribution, from Eritrea in the north to southern Mozambique and northern RSA in the south. It extends westwards across the northern part of the DRC, the Central African Republic, Cameroon and Nigeria. Fig. 48. Distribution maps. Scotoecus hindei Thomas, 1901. A.

In most cases, the number of specimens we report is higher than the number reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 77). The only exceptions are INPBC, where part of the material has been divided between the RBINS and RMCA collections, and the BMNH, where Hayman et al. (1966) did not provide any registration numbers and we were unable to trace the specimens involved. Hayman et al. (1966: 77) also reported an additional 45 specimens (1 Epomophorus anurus, 1 Epomops franqueti, 1 Hypsignatus monstrosus, 2 Taphozous mauritianus, 4 Saccolaimus peli, 1 Nycteris arge, 1 N. hispida, 7 Lavia frons, 4 Hipposideros caffer, 4 H. ruber, 4 Myotis bocagii, 6 Neoromicia nana, 7 Pipistrellus rueppellii, 1 Nycticeinops schlieffeni and 1 Miniopterus inlatus) from literature data only (Noack 1887; Gyldenstolpe 1928; Sanborn 1936; Hatt 1940; Allen & Loveridge 1942). 247 7 1 1 4 34 14 32 328 70 3 Epomophorus Bennett, 1836 11 4 1 14 28 92 583 1 Epomophorus anselli Bergmans & Van Strien, 2004 3 Epomophorus crypturus Peters, 1852 26 10 1 12 1 25 1 54 158 3 1 1 5 Epomophorus minimus Claessen & De Vree, 1991 Epomophorus minor Dobson, 1880 2 Epomophorus wahlbergi (Sundevall, 1846) 11 2 4 2 4 11 4 3 7 89 13 4 3 7 357 1 12 116 2 Epomops Gray, 1866 2 Epomops dobsonii (Bocage, 1889) 1 248 Epomops franqueti (Tomes, 1860) 31 12 9 Hypsignathus monstrosus H.

For each of the localities, the name, country-province, coordinates and altitude are given. We also provide alternative spellings and linguistic variations (English, Dutch and French). The English version of the current name was chosen as “master locality” and the alternative versions are mentioned in brackets preceded by “see alias:”. The aliases are followed by “see:” referring to the “master locality”. The coordinates for the localities were found and/or checked from various sources, e.g., “Global Gazetteer Version 2.3” (http://www.fallingrain.com/world/), NGA GEOnet Names Server (GNS) (http://geonames.nga.mil/gns/html/), literature data (including Hayman et al. 1966), (online) museum catalogs and specimen labels. An overview of the current provincial names and abbreviations used in the gazetteer (source: http://www.statoids.com) and those used in Hayman et al. (1966) or historically is provided before the actual list of collecting localities.
