Rousettus aegyptiacus unicolor (Gray, 1870)

During this study, this species was only captur- ed on the Guinean side of Mt Nimba, but had previously been recorded from the Liberian side (Coe, 1975; Verschuren, 1977; Wolton et al., 1982). Its apparent disappearance from the Liberian side may be as a result of disturbance to roosting sites, presumably due to hunting of bats for food, as reported by local hunters (P. Farnloe, personal communication).
