The Angolan hairy bat (Cistugo seabrae) also known as Angolan wing-gland bat is a species of bat in the Cistugidae family.

It can be found in the following countries: Angola, Namibia, and South Africa.

It is found in these habitats: hot deserts.

Taxonomy and etymology

It was described as a new species in 1912 by British zoologist Oldfield Thomas.

Thomas decided that the taxa was so distinct, it warranted the description of a new genus, Cistugo.

The Angolan hairy bat is the type species for Cistugo.

The holotype of the species was captured in Mossamedes, Angola.

The eponym for the species name "seabrae" is Antero Frederico de Seabra.[3]

Description

It has "peculiar thickened glands" on its wings with three on each wing.

The glands are {{convert|3-3.5|mm|in|abbr=on}} in length and {{convert|1-1.5|mm|in|abbr=on}} in width.

Its forearm is approximately {{convert|32.5|mm|in|abbr=on}} long.[3]

Range and habitat

It is found in several countries in Southern Africa including Angola, Namibia, and South Africa.

It is typically documented in arid areas with less than {{convert|100|mm|in|abbr=on}} of annual rainfall.[1]

Conservation

As of 2017, it is evaluated as a least-concern species by the IUCN.

It meets the criteria for this designation because it has a wide geographic range; its population is presumably large; and no major threats have been identified to its continued existence.

Local threats may include cave disturbance due to mining activities.[1]
