Previously, two individuals were recorded by Wolton et al. (1982, as H. commersoni ), and Decher and Fahr (2007) mention specimens from Mt Nimba at altitudes of 1,470 to 1,700 m. During this survey, it was recorded widely in forested and disturbed habitats in Liberian Nimba, ranging from 460 m to 1,060 m a.s.l.
