Myonycteris leptodon Andersen, 1908

This species had previously been recorded from the Liberian and Guinean side of Mt Nimba ( Coe, 1975; Verschuren, 1977; Wolton et al., 1982; Fahr et al., 2006). This species was recorded across a wide range of forested habitats on both Liberian and Guinean sides of the mountain from 450 m to 1,350 m a.s.l. We follow Nesi et al. (2013) in recognising the West African taxon as a species separate from M. torquata , which occurs further east.
