Dong Bac's trident bat, Aselliscus dongbacanus, is a leaf-nosed bat known from northeastern Vietnam. Its type locality is Na Phong cave in Ba Be National Park, Bac Kan Province. It is also called the large trident bat. The English Wikipedia article reports that it diverged from Stoliczka's trident bat, Aselliscus stoliczkanus, during the late Miocene. The Mammal Diversity Database lists it as a living, recently described species whose original spelling dongbacana was changed to dongbacanus to agree in gender with the genus name, and it carries an IUCN status of Near Threatened.
