REMARK

Nine species of Old World fruit bats ( Pteropodidae ) were encountered during the two field seasons. The maximum number of pteropodid species encountered at one site was five during a single field season (dry) and seven during both field seasons in the Agumatsa valley (Wli). The latter number is identical to what Yeboah (2001) found at Mt. Afadjato Forest (near Tagbo Falls).
