Comment:
Comments: Formerly included in Tadarida but apparently distinct; see Koopman (1975) and Legendre (1984), but also see Freeman (1981). Does not include Platymops and Sauromys; see Corbet and Hill (1992) and Peterson et al. (1995). Species groups follow Koopman (1994). This genus apparently includes at least seven undescribed species in Australia; see Adams et al. (1988), Churchill (1998), and Menkhorst and Knight (2001). These forms have already been given common names (Churchill, 1998): Eastern Freet...
