Habitat:
It roosted in hollow trees and sometimes amongst rocks. Its very long and dense fur suggest that it may have had a preference for cool roosting places, such as the higher altitudes in Réunion, and its reported ability to exploit suitably rocky substrates indicate that it was not dependent on forest or even trees for roosting places (Bergmans 1990).
Range:
This species was previously known from Mauritius and Réunion. It was restricted to elevations of between 1,200 and 1,600 m asl.
Conservation:
No longer applicable. This species is listed on Appendix II of CITES.
