Rhinolophus ruwenzorii has a very restricted distribution of approximately 360 km 2 in the DRC provinces of Nord-Kivu and Ituri ( Fahr 2013c: 342). Some authors (e.g., Smith & Hood 1980) consider ruwenzorii to be a subspecies of the west African R. maclaudi , which would result in an extremely disjunct distribution for this species ( Baeten et al. 1984). However, Fahr et al. (2002) showed that both forms differ substantially and should be considered as separate species.
