Subspecies and Distribution. R d. denti Thomas, 1904 - SW Angola, N Namibia, NW & SW Botswana, and N South Africa (Northern Cape Province). There is an unconfirmed record from SW Republic of the Congo. R d. knorri Eisentraut, 1960 - scattered records across W Africa in SE Senegal, Guinea-Bissau, W Guinea, N Sierra Leone, N Ivory Coast (but possibly representing Lander's Horseshoe Bat, R landeri), NE Ghana, S Burkina Faso, and Nigeria. There is apparently a specimen from S South Sudan that might represent this subspecies, although its identity needs to be validated. in Rhinolophidae
