Of the 40 ground­level mistnet captures, 17 were in well­drained pri­mary forest, 8 were in swampy primary forest, 3 were in creekside primary forest, 3 were in manmade clearings, and 9 were over roadside puddles. Of the 12 individuals cap­tured in elevated nets, 11 were taken between 10 and 23 m above a narrow dirt road, and 1 was taken at 5–8 m in the subcanopy of swampy primary forest. The shot bat was found hanging from a palm frond about 10 m above the ground in well­drained primary forest.
