Hill's roundleaf bat

Hill's roundleaf bat, Hipposideros edwardshilli, is a leaf-nosed bat endemic to Papua New Guinea. Tim Flannery and Donald Colgan described it in 1993 from a specimen collected near Imonda Station in the Bewani Mountains in 1990, and the species name honours the British mammalogist John Edwards Hill. The forearm is 49.6 to 51 millimetres and the tail only 11 to 15 millimetres, and it differs from every other Hipposideros in having two club-like projections on its nose leaf. It has been recorded only between 200 and 300 metres above sea level and has not been documented since its description. The IUCN lists it as Vulnerable because its area of occupancy may be under 2,000 square kilometres and deforestation continues.
