Comment:
Status: IUCN 2003 and IUCN/SSC Action Plan (2001) - Lower Risk (lc)
Comment:
Comments: Subgenus Mops. Does not include leucostigma; see Peterson et al., 1995. Distribution mapped by Taylor (2000a)
Comment:
'Although up to four subspecies were recognized by K. F. Koopman in 1994, lack of information from most of the range, as well as the difficulty in assigning populations to these subspecies, makes it inadvisable to recognize subspecies until a full taxonomic revision has been performed.' (Wilson and Mittermeier, 2019)
