The flanks are covered in a unicolored pale off- whitish. The wings and tail membrane are translucent and fairly broad in outline. Distribution remarks. This rarely collected species has a patchy distribution throughout the eastern third of sub Saharan Africa. Originally described from central Kenya (Thomas 1901), subsequent records have ex- tended into Ethiopia (Hill 1974, Lavrenchenko et al. 2004) and central Tanzania (Stanley & Kock 2004). The single adult male of this species discussed here is the first record for this species in Uganda. It was netted in Nakiloro, Karamoja on the 11 Januar)^ 2004 by the senior author. This brings the total confirmed number of east African specimens to 12. Recent materials from Lesotho and South v^frica (n - 9) have been tentatively referred to this taxon but FIG. 2. Distribution of Kerivoula ?cuprosa (A), Ke- rivouLa smithii (â ), Kerivoula cuprosa (â¦), Kerivoula sp. indet. (â¢). may represent a new taxon. With some caution, Rau- tenbach & Nel (1978) extended the range of the no- \ minate taxon to the Cape Province, South Africa. Al- though this view was upheld by Koopman (1993), Kearney and Seamark (2005) show that this question is unresolved. T
