Monadjem et al. (2010) and Skinner and Chimimba (2005) classify the species as Hypsugo anchietae . Although previously included under the genus Pipistrellus , bacular and chromosomal evidence supports the contention that this species should be placed in its own genus, Hypsugo (Volleth et al. 2001; Kearney et al. 2002; Kearney 2005). It is possible that more H. anchietae exist in collections misidentified as Pipistrellus kuhlii (Kearney &; Taylor 1997). Continued molecular and taxonomic research is necessary for the Neoromica/Pipistrellus group and this species (Monadjem et al. 2010).	20000000	Pipistrellus anchietae	Least Concern		2017	2016-08-31 00:00:00 UTC	3.1	English	Listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution, presumed large population, it occurs in a number of protected areas, and because it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a more threatened category.	This species is typically associated with dry and moist savanna. Specimens in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, were collected from well wooded associations such as Afromontane forest, coastal forest or bushveld (Taylor, 1998). On Madagascar, Bates et al . (2006) reports that specimens were netted over a water pool in relatively intact dry deciduous forest; obtained in open saltpan habitat at the foot of coastal dunes and next to artesian sources forming small freshwater pools; netted in gallery forest along the Onilahy River, near Sept Lacs, in a zone dominated by xerophytic spiny bush; and collected in a dry deciduous forest that also contains some floristic elements of humid forest.	There appear to be no major threats to this species, although further research is needed to confirm this.	It is a locally common species in southern Africa. Very few specimens are currently known from Madagascar.	Unknown	This largely southern African species ranges from Angola in the west, through southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, and from here south into Zambia, Zimbabwe, and eastern South Africa. It could be more widespread in southern Africa than is currently understood (Skinner and Chimimba 2005). The species has recently been recorded from Madagascar for the first time, where it was collected from four localities (Kirindy Forest [CFPF]; Sept Lacs; Parc National de Kirindy-Mitea; Parc National de Zombitse-Vohibasia) (Bates et al. 2006).		Terrestrial	It is present in a number of protected areas in Zimbabwe and South Africa. Further studies are needed into the distribution, natural history and possible threats to this species.
