Description
Habitat
Biome: Terrestrial [1].
Ecology:
Little is known about the habitat
or ecology of this species except
that it roosts in granite caves in subterranean
habitats and shares
its roosts with other hipposiderid species such as H. ater,
H. fulvus and H. speoris (Kock and Bhat 1994, Molur
et al.
2002).[1].
