Nyctinomus bivittatus Heuglin, 1861: 4, 13.

One immature specimen belonging to this species is known from the DRC. This specimen was originally identified as Tadarida ansorgei, but as indicated above, was re-identified by R. L. Peterson as belonging to the current species. Cotterill (2013d: 500) reported this species from a number of scattered areas in eastern Africa, reaching from northwestern Eritrea over central Ethiopia, western Kenya, the coastal area between Kenya and Tanzania, northern Zambia, southern Zambia, central Zimbabwe, the border between Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and also from a small area on the border between Uganda and South Sudan. This latter area is the closest record of C. bivittatus to the DRC.
