Scotoecus hindei / albigula Thomas 1901, 1909

Six individuals referable to either S. hindei or S. albigula were collected from four sites across the country. There is confusion regarding the specific status of hindei / albigula ( Monadjem et al., 2010) , and therefore we have chosen to lump these two species until the genus has been revised. This species was first reported from Zinave National Park, southern Mozambique by Cotterill (2001 a).

Field measurements: FA (adult male) 34.2 ± 1.08 (33.4–35.4, 3); Bm (adult male) 11.7 ± 0.76 (11.0– 12.5, 3); FA (adult female) 33.5 ± 0.71 (32.9–34.0, 3); Bm (adult female) 8.0 (1).
