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-identified 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 Haut- Uélé 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.
