This bat occurs on Sulawesi. Its head is nearly black, its back dark grayish brown, and its shoulder, chest, and belly fur pale yellowish white. HMW 9 reports lowland rainforest habitat and notes it was treated as a full species from 2011 after being described as a subspecies.
The head fur is short, dense, and nearly blackish brown; the nape and back are dark grayish brown. Fur on the shoulders, chest, and belly is pale yellowish white.
HMW 9 reports lowland rainforest habitat. It describes the diet as presumed, so the account does not support a definite food claim here.
