TaxonomyIt was described as a new species in 2012. The holotype had been collected by A. Monadjem in July 2006 at Niassa Reserve in Mozambique. It was segregated from the Hildebrandt's horseshoe bat (R. hildebrandtii) species complex at the same time as the Smithers's horseshoe bat, Cohen's horseshoe bat, and Rhinolophus mabuensis. Its species name "mossambicus" refers to the country of Mozambique.[2] DescriptionIts forearm length is {{cvt|60-65|mm|in}}. It echolocates at a peak frequency of 35-38 kHz.[2] Range and habitatIts range includes the African countries of Mozambique and Zimbabwe. It has been documented at a range of elevations from {{cvt|60-1000|m|ft}} above sea level.[1] It is associated with savanna habitats.[2] ConservationAs of 2017, it is evaluated as a least-concern species by the IUCN. It meets the criteria for this assessment because it has a relatively large geographic range, and it is unlikely to be experiencing rapid population decline. Its population trend is, however, projected as decreasing due to threats such as hunting for bushmeat, as well as roost disturbance due to guano mining.[1] References{{Wikispecies}}1. ^1 2 {{cite journal|last1=Shoeman| first1= C.| year= 2017| title= Rhinolophus mossambicus| journal= The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species| volume= 2017| page= e.T64589126A64589338| doi= 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2017-2.RLTS.T64589126A64589338.en}} {{Rhinolophidae}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q3934095}}2. ^1 2 {{Cite journal|last=Cotterill|first=Fenton P.
