- Nycteris intermedia Aellen, 1959 Fig. 21 E–F * Nycteris intermedia Aellen, 1959: 218 . In a note on page 35, Hayman et al. (1966) mention for N. intermedia: “A doubtfully valid species”. However, the multivariate biometrical analyses by Van Cakenberghe & De Vree (1985) showed that this species can clearly be distinguished from the larger N. arge and the smaller N. nana. Contrary to the very patchy distribution map presented by Fahr (2013g: 450), we believe this species has a more extensive distribution over the African rainforest than all of the members of the Nycteris arge group, since representatives of this species might have been misidentified as N. arge. However, we do caution that in the DRC, the species has only been found in the northeastern part of the country (Ituri, Nord- and South-Kivu Provinces).
