Comment:
'Although some authors, such as J. A. J. Meester and colleagues in 1986, have recognized up to five subspecies, these are not well defined geographically or morphologically and have not been recognized by recent authorities such as N. B. Simmons in 2005 or A. Monadjem and colleagues in 2010.' (Wilson and Mittermeier, 2019)
