The Small Rufous Horseshoe Bat is endemic to the Philippines. It has reddish fur and a noseleaf covering the muzzle, and has been recorded roosting in caves.
The dorsal fur is usually reddish or cinnamon-rufous, with slightly browner fur below. Its horseshoe-shaped noseleaf covers the muzzle.
It has been recorded roosting in dim cave areas; a local survey often found individuals alone in low-ceiling areas or cavities. The accessed species account reports no feeding information.
