Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.[1] TaxonomyThe Benito roundleaf bat was described as a new species in 1906 by Danish mammalogist Knud Andersen. The holotype was collected {{cvt|15|mi|km}} from the Benito River by American naturalist George Latimer Bates.[2] Two subspecies are recognized: H. b. beatus and H. b. maximus.[4] DescriptionIt has fine, fluffy, dark brown hair. Its ears are relatively short for a roundleaf bat, at {{cvt|12-16|mm|in}}. Individuals weigh {{cvt|6-9.5|g|oz}} and have forearm lengths of {{cvt|39-48|mm|in}}.[3] Biology and ecologyIt is monoestrous, with one breeding season per year. Mating occurs in June and July (the end of the first wet season; females give birth in October and November (the middle of the second wet season). The litter size is one offspring.[3] Range and habitatThe Benito roundleaf bat has been documented in several countries in Africa, mainly in Central Africa. Its range includes: Cameroon, Republic of the Congo, The Democratic Republic of the Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Sudan, and Togo. It as found at elevations up to {{cvt|500|m|ft}} above sea level.[1] ConservationAs of 2017, the Benito roundleaf bat is classified as a least-concern species by the IUCN. It meets the criteria for this classification because it has a wide geographic range; its population is presumably large; and it is unlikely to be experiencing rapid population decline.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite journal |last1=Monadjem| first1= A.| last2= Juste| first2= J.| last3= Bergmans| first3= W.| last4= Mickleburgh| first4= S.| last5= Hutson| first5= A.M.| last6= Fahr| first6= J.| year= 2017 |title= Hipposideros beatus |journal= The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species |page= e.T10112A22098184| doi= 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2017-2.RLTS.T10112A22098184.en}} {{Hipposideridae}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q1760873}}2. ^{{cite journal|last=Andersen|first=K.|year=1906|title=XXXV.—On Hipposiderus caffer, Sund., and its closest Allies; with some notes on H. fuliginosus, Temm| journal=The Annals and Magazine of Natural History; Zoology, Botany, and Geology|series=7|volume=17|pages=279–280|url=https://biodiversitylibrary.org/page/19245497}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite book| editor-last1=Kingdon| editor-first1= J.| editor-last2= Happold| editor-first2= D.| editor-last3= Butynski| editor-first3= T.| editor-last4= Hoffmann| editor-first4= M.| editor-last5= Happold| editor-first5= M.| editor-last6= Kalina| editor-first6= J.| last=Happold| first=Meredith| date= 2013| title= Mammals of Africa| volume=4| publisher= A&C Black| page=373–375|isbn=9781408189962}} 5 : Hipposideros|Mammals described in 1906|Taxa named by Knud Andersen|Bats of Africa|Taxonomy articles created by Polbot |
