The Tanzanian Woolly Bat is recorded in coastal forests of eastern Tanzania. It has gray-brown, frizzled fur and broad funnel-shaped ears.
Its fur is gray-brown and woolly or frizzled, sometimes with silvery streaks. The wings are dark, and the ears flare like funnels.
One roost report found a male and three females together among hanging epiphytes about 2.5 m above the ground.
Three pregnant females were captured in mid-October.
The face is nearly bare between the eyes, the muzzle is narrow, and the crown is high and domed.
