SPECIES Pipistrellus (Pipistrellus) inexspectatus
| Author: | Aellen, 1959. | | Citation: | Arch. Sci. Phys. Nat. Geneve, 12: 226. | | Common Name: | Aellen's Pipistrelle | | Type Locality: | Cameroon, Upper Benoue Valley, Ngaaouyanga. | | Distribution: | Sierra Leone, Ghana, Benin, Cameroon, and Uganda. Specimens from Kenya and Dem. Rep. Congo previously referred to this species are now thought to represent eisentrauti; see Koopman et al. (1995). A possible record from Sudan cannot be confirmed as the specimen is too immature to identify (M. Happold, pers. comm.) | | Status: | IUCN 2003 and IUCN/SSC Action Plan (2001) – Lower Risk (lc). | | Comments: | Subgenus Pipistrellus. Often misspelled inexpectatus. |
