  1. aTemporarily determined by habitat and nucleotide sequence identity of cytochrome b genes (97% in BLAST search). East African epauletted fruit bat (Epomophorus minimus), Ansell’s epauletted fruit bat (Epomophorus anselli), Peter’s dwarf epauletted fruit bat (Micropteropus pusillus) and Gambian epauletted fruit bat (Epomophorus gambianus) are also genetically similar (97%).
