However Mute- re's (1970) reproduction study of"//, caffer' in the Entebbe region must have included the present form, although he was unaware of H. ruber also in his 900 examples. He found all births to occur once a year in March-April. DeBeaux (1922) found most Sesse Is 9 pregnant in Feb. Hipposideros ruber ruber. Fig. 13C, PI. 2 Phyllorhina rubra Noack 1893, Zool. Jb.

Hollister (1918) recognized the distinctness of H. ruber and cited specimens from "Gondokoro, Uganda" (today = extreme S Sudan). DeBeaux (1922) separated his large collection from C Uganda by size but skulls were not studied, and our own brief ex- amination of the same alcohol material left all middle- sized examples undetermined. Pye (1972) found only 1 of 14 Hipposideros at Entebbe with low kHz calls typical of ruber ( kHz) (Fenton 1988, Heller 1992). Fig. 15 displays the Ugandan distri- bution. Western.
