This species is readily distinguishable from all other known African 

 molossid bats by its extremely small size, aside from any other characters. 



Although the premaxillse are slightly emarginate behind the incisors, 

 the other characters, both external and cranial, agree completely with the 

 larger forms here referred to Allomops, even in the sexual difference, and 

 especially the sexual difference in the size of the lower premolar, p 2 being 

 larger than p4 in the males and smaller than p4 in the females.
