Endemic to more than Madagascar[edit]

I'm no expert and don't have time to research fully, but this study would seem to suggest the Commerson's roundleaf bat is also endemic to (or perhaps occasionally migrates to?) Nigeria.

Please review the 3rd sentence in the article. The paper you mention was written by virologists whose knowledge of bat taxonomy was evidently not up to date. It appears that the bats they sampled are currently classified as the species Macronycteris gigas and/or Macronycteris vittatus. WolfmanSF (talk) 23:16, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
