About Rhinolophus luctus Temminck, 1834
The great woolly horseshoe bat, with the scientific name Rhinolophus luctus, is a bat species that belongs to the family Rhinolophidae. This species is endemic to Southeast Asia. A number of taxa that were previously classified under Rhinolophus luctus have since been reclassified as separate, distinct species. These include the northern woolly horseshoe bat (R. perniger), the Malaysian woolly horseshoe bat (R. morio), and Andersen's woolly horseshoe bat (R. foetidus). In addition, other populations have been described as new distinct species, such as the Selangor woolly horseshoe bat (R. luctoides).
