Malayan roundleaf bat

Mammals

The Malayan roundleaf bat, Hipposideros nequam, is a roundleaf bat found only in Malaysia. The Mammal Diversity Database gives the type locality as Klang in Selangor and calls it the Malayan leaf-nosed bat, listing it as a living species of the Indomalayan realm with no IUCN evaluation recorded, while the English Wikipedia article reports it as listed Data Deficient. The article is a two-sentence stub and little else is documented about its size, diet or roosting habits, so this entry records only the sourced range and status and leaves the rest to later sources.
