. In coastal Kenya, reproductive cycle ofHildegardes Tomb Bat closely corresponds to regional seasonality in rainfall. Males have pronounced bimodal cycles of fat deposition, corresponding to relative insect abundance during dual rainy seasons in Kenya. During active courtship and copulation in the first dry season of the year when moth abundance is lowest, males deplete body fat; fat accumulation in males is greatest in the long rainy season in Kenya. Females do not put on appreciable fat deposits, and even near-term pregnant females do not reach large seasonal body weights of males. A secondary peak in body weight and development of male sexual glands are associated with “short rains” in October-December. Second rainy season apparently does not result in reproduction but appears to allow maintenance of year-round harems that might reflect a vestigial polyestrous reproductive cycle.

Hildegards Tomb Bat is nocturnal and uses coral sea caves as roosts along the coast. It emerges from day roosts well after dark.

Hildegards Tomb Bat is polygynous, and males maintain roost territories to defend their female harems. In some larger harems, multiple males defend a groups roosting site. Distance between harems is slightly greater than striking distance of the forearm. Adult males defend harems from intruders by wing flicking, vocalizations, scent marking, postural changes, and aggressive attacks. Males identify females as harem members by anal-genital sniffing. Males also mark harem females by pressing throat glands over females dorsum and mark themselves by rubbing their folded wings and forearms over throat glands. Bachelor males andjuveniles roost separately from harems. Colonies of hundreds to c.1000 individuals occur in caves, suggesting that local foraging movements occur at considerable distances from roosting sites. Hildegards Tomb Bats often share lit parts of caves with African Sheath-tailed Bats

Extent of occurrence of Hildegards Tomb Bat is less than 20,000 km2, its distribution is severely fragmented, and there is continuing decline in extent and quality of its forest habitat. It has been recorded from fewer than ten coastal localities. No distribution-wide population estimates are available, but surveys in Kenya and Tanzania in 1988 documented more than 130, 300, and 1000 individuals in three caves. Hildegards Tomb Bat likely is declining due to loss of habitat in coastal dry forests and disturbance of cave sites. Updated surveys of cave populations are needed to reassess it conservation status.
