" A particularly late flyer, never appearing until well after sunset. On 

 moonlight nights it may often be recognised, flying low and hawking over 

 a small area for a considerable time. Probably on account of its habit of 

 preying when it has an opportunity on the smaller bats, its roosting places 

 seem always to be avoided by other species, even by those as large as 

 itself. Occurring here in a small Temple to the east of Pattabhirama, in 

 Izara Temple, near Vittalaswami, and in Krishnaswami's Temple. Although 

 two other species of bat, viz., Taphozous kachhensis and Hipposideros 

 dukhunensis also occurred in Krishnaswami, they roosted in the ' ambula- 

 tary ' while this species occurred in the inner shrine, where they were 

 quite isolated." — G. C S.
