Russet free-tailed bat

Mammals

The russet free-tailed bat (Mops russatus) is a bat of the free-tailed bat family Molossidae, described by J. A. Allen in 1917; the GBIF taxonomic backbone files the name under Chaerephon russatus, while the International Union for Conservation of Nature record names it Mops russatus. Wikipedia lists it from Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ghana and Kenya, and gives its natural habitat as subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest. The International Union for Conservation of Nature classes the species as Data Deficient, meaning there is too little information to judge its risk of extinction.
