Rhinolophidae

We encountered several difficulties with identifying specimens of Rhinolophus from Mozambique, either because of imperfect matches of morphological criteria in keys (e.g., Csorba et al., 2003) or known echolocation frequency or because individuals which matched a particular species morphologically (e.g., R. cf. swinnyi ) were found to differ considerably based on mtDNA (cytochrome b) sequences. The new molecular data form part of a separate paper in preparation (S. Stoffberg, unpublished data).
