In this case, echolocation call frequency varies relatively little (between c. 110 and 125 kHz) across its distribution, but within this ultrasonic range there are differences in mean frequency among islands (e.g. the Solomons; Pennay and Lavery 2017) and bimodal patterns within Papua New Guinea (K.N. Armstrong unpubl. obs.) suggesting the presence of geographic variation and sexual dimorphism. Comments on a suitable common name were given by Armstrong et al. (2016) to avoid confusion with members of the Rhinonycteridae.</span>	20000000	Aselliscus tricuspidatus	Least Concern		2021	2020-12-14 00:00:00 UTC	3.1	English	<span class="datalabel1">This species is listed as Least Concern, the population is estimated to be more than 10,000 mature individuals, it has a wide distribution, uses a broad range of forested habitats, and there is no evidence for a decline.	<span class="datalabel1">This species has been recorded roosting in many caves and tunnels. Animals form groups of 40 to 50 individuals, and several hundred bats may occur at a single roost. Females are presumed to give birth to one or two young annually (Bonaccorso 1998). It forages mostly within forest (Armstrong 2017, Armstrong et al. 2019).	<span class="datalabel1">There appear to be no major threats to this species that could cause widespread or imminent decline. It may be threatened in parts of its range by collection for food or disturbance within cave roosts. It is a species of the forest interior and thus is impacted by forest removal.	<span class="datalabel1">The population is <span class="datalabel1">assumed to be stable and is estimated to exceed 10, 000 mature individuals. It is common in some parts of its range (e.g., New Ireland), but apparently uncommon in other areas (e.g., the Moluccas) (Flannery 1995b), except in the central and eastern part of Halmahera based on a recent survey by the Museum Zoologicum Bogoriense (MZB, unpublished data). In the past decade, it has been shown to be relatively common in bat detector surveys in Papua New Guinea (K.N. Armstrong and K.P. Aplin unpublished data), as well as Bougainville and the Solomons (Pennay and Lavery 2017), and effort for acoustics-based surveys will help to establish how common it might be in other parts of its distribution.</span>	Stable	It extends from Indonesia to Vanuatu. In Indonesia, it is found in the Moluccas (the islands Morotai, Halmahera, Bacan, Buru, Ambon, Seram, and Kai), the Raja Ampat islands (Waigeo; Wiantoro 2011) and Kaimana in the West Papua Province, the Schouten Islands (the islands Numfoor, Biak and Yapen), and northern areas of Papua Province adjacent to Papua New Guinea. In Papua New Guinea it is found either side of the central cordillera, the Trobriand Islands (Kiriwina), the D'Entrecasteaux Islands (the islands of Goodenough, Fergusson, Normanby), the Woodlark Islands (Muyua), Lousiade Archipelago (Misima), the Bismarck Archipelago (New Britain, New Ireland, Mussau; Armstrong et al. 2015), and Bougainville and Buka islands. It is also found on most of the Solomon Islands, the Santa Cruz Islands (Nendo), and Vanuatu (islands of Espiritu Santo and Malekula) (Bonaccorso 1998; Flannery 1995 a,b). It is also likely to occur on some of the smaller islands within the aforementioned range. A general lack of survey effort is likely to be the reason why it appears absent from other parts of the Papua and West Papua provinces of Indonesia. Records are mostly from lowland areas but reach as high as c. 1,400 m asl elevation in the highlands of Papua New Guinea (Armstrong 2017).		Terrestrial	<a name="_Hlk56876661">Key conservation actions for this species are the protection of known roosting sites in caves, and the identification and protection of additional important roosting sites. Broadscale protection of forests will also help maintain population size in this species. Although it is listed here as Least Concern, if further genetic work shows the existence of distinct species or evolutionary significant units in areas where population size and extent of occurrence could be limited, then reassessment would be required. In the meantime, any development proposal that presents a risk to a small, isolated population should consider the possibility that it might be part of a more restricted taxon that is worthy of special consideration.</a><a name="_Hlk56876661"> </a>	Australasian		FALSE	FALSE	Global	Simmons, N.
