Common English name: Big-eared Horseshoe Bat Barcode Index Number: DNA barcodes recorded as R . macrotis are associated with two BINs, BOLD : AAC 2064 and BOLD :ACU9422, but there are no DNA barcodes from Peninsular Malaysia . Remarks: The BIN, BOLD:AAC2064 includes DNA barcodes recorded as R . macrotis and R . siamensis , and both demonstrated very shallow genetic divergences [ 4 ] (S5 Fig). The BIN, BOLD:ACU9422 contains two DNA barcodes which are originally from GenBank and may be erroneous. IUCN status: Least Concern Recorded at: Pahang : Krau Wildlife Reserve [ 11 , 41 , 42 ], Gunung Benom [ 23 ], Pulau Tioman [ 79 ], Klau Besar [ 100 ]; Perlis : Wang Kelian State Park [ 50 ]. R . macrotis has been recorded in lowland and hill forests [ 11 , 14 , 23 ].
