Its extent of occurrence is &gt;20,000 km<sup>2</sup> and its area of occupancy (cave roosting sites) is probably &gt;2,000 km<sup>2</sup>. Although its population is probably decreasing through bushmeat hunting and guano mining, there is no evidence that the decrease has been rapid enough to warrant Near Threatened or threatened status.	The natural history of this newly described species is largely unknown. R. mossambicus usually roosts in limestone caves. It is associated with the southern savanna biome, in intact and disturbed habitats. Its altitudinal range extends from 60â€“ 500 m in Mozambique, and to 1000 m Asl in NW Zimbabwe (Taylor et al. ;2012).	This species is collected for bushmeat in Mozambique (particularly in the Inhassoro province). Additionally, the local communities disturb the roosts of this species with guano mining activities.	There is no information on population size. Museum specimens have been collected from seven sites in Mozambique, and one locality in Zimbabwe (Monadjem et al ., 2010a, b; Taylor et al . 2012; S.M. Goodman and M.C. Schoeman, unpublished data). Population sizes at roost sites were estimated between 50 â€“ 400 (Monadjem et al . 2010b; S.M. Goodman and M.C. Schoeman unpublished data). Environmental niche models suggest additional roost sites may be present, but the localities are unknown.	Decreasing	Records across the southern African subregion combined with environmental niche models suggest that R. mossambicus is widespread in the savanna biome in Mozambique and north-west Zimbabwe (Monadjem et al . 2010a, b; Taylor et al . 2012). The species is known from a wide elevational range, from as low as 60 m to at least 500 m Asl in Mozambique and 1000 m Asl in Zimbabwe.	This species is collected for bushmeat in Mozambique (particularly in the Inhassoro province).	Terrestrial	R. mossambicus has been recorded from Niassa Game Reserve and Gorongosa National Park. Additional surveys are needed to learn more about the distribution, natural history and threats to this species. Existing cave roosts need to be protected from guano mining and hunting for bushmeat (S.M. Goodman and M.C. Schoeman unpublished data). Other potential threats include habitat loss (due to charcoal collecting and logging) and fire.</span>	Afrotropical		FALSE	FALSE	Global	Simmons, N. B., & Cirranello, A. L. (2023).
