The Flores woolly bat (Kerivoula flora) is a species of vesper bat in the family Vespertilionidae.

Distribution

It is found in Indonesia and Malaysia. The distribution of this species is believed to be in Borneo, Bali, the Lesser Sunda Islands, and Sumba. Possibly the same or a very similar species can be found in Kon Kha Kinh and Pu Mat, Vietnam.[1]

The species, primarily dependent on forests, has undergone a 30% population decline over the last ten years, in the lesser Sundras.
