Assessment rationale/justification
Regular sightings reported but still very little known of numbers and range. Likely to be declining, possibly rapidly. Their populations may be linked to Uganda's extensive papyrus/swamp network and would be affected by clearance as with sitatunga. 20 captures recorded in 3 months along the Dura/Njuguta swamps in Kanyawara community through Kiko tea plantation. There are also quite a few in the grassland/forest mosaic areas of Kibale (D.R. Mills).

Assessment rationale/justification
IUCN notes that this species is absent from central forested regions of Africa, however there is a confusion with H. ruber and likely to be present throughout. Cave and cavity roosting bats, occuring in smaller colonies, but because of the specialized roosting requirements could see large population destroyed by roost site destruction or alteration

Assessment rationale/justification
Global estimate of nearly 30% decline due to hunting/persecution. A well-known colony in Kampala (Uganda) declined in numbers over a forty-year period from ca. 250,000 animals to 40,000 in 2007 (Monadjem et al. 2007). Show extreme roost fidelity and roost in colonies of up to millions of individuals.
