Rhinolophus
sp. 1
New record
Lampung Province
: Way Canguk Forest.
Remarks
A single adult female was collected previously from Way Canguk Forest, but misidentified as a
R. lepidus
(MZB 31491). This is a small brown
Rhinolophus
with a FA of
40.4 mm
. The lancet is blunted at the tip and barely hairy at the base. The connecting process is significantly reduced, which differs from triangular-tipped connecting process in
R. lepidus
and
R. pusillus
. The sella is nearly parallel on the sides and the end of the sella significantly protrudes beyond the tip of the connecting process. The noseleaf characteristics are similar to the
philippinensis
species group, but do not match any known species in this group (
Csorba
et al.
, 2003
). Further comparison with more species is necessary to identify this species.
