The Telefomin roundleaf bat, Hipposideros corynophyllus, is a leaf-nosed bat of New Guinea, found in West Papua in Indonesia and in Papua New Guinea. It belongs to the family Hipposideridae and takes its name from the town of Telefomin in West Sepik Province, where the type specimen was collected in a cave at about 1,800 metres above sea level. Some authorities place it in the genus Doryrhina because of a suspected close relationship to the cyclops roundleaf bat, but the Mammal Diversity Database retains it in Hipposideros for the time being, since that relationship has not been tested with molecular data. It is a living species in the Australasian realm with an IUCN status of Least Concern.
