In the west of its range it is associated with montane tropical moist forest. The eastern populations are generally found in savanna and grassland savanna, Acacia , Combretum and Acaciaâ€“Commiphora communities. Roost in rocks, rock caves and fissures (Freeman 1981).	The species is threatened by habitat loss, largely through logging activities and the conversion of land to agricultural use.	The abundance of this species is unclear, in parts of the range it seems to be a rare species that is found in small colonies consisting of a few individuals. In East African this species exhibits a clumped distribution, yet is relatively abundant locally (Weballa et al. 2004).	Unknown	This African species is widely distributed from Sierra Leone in the west, then patchily through West and Central Africa to southern Sudan, Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania in the east. It has been recorded up to 1,700 m Asl on Mount Nimba along the border of CÃ´te d'Ivoire and Guinea (J. Fahr pers. comm. 2004).		Terrestrial	It is present in Meru National Park, Kenya, and is presumably present in several more protected areas. Further studies are needed into the taxonomy, natural history, threats and distribution of this species.	Afrotropical		FALSE	FALSE	Global	Simmons, N. B., & Cirranello, A. L. (2023).
