Rohu's Bat
Henry Stewart Rohu is credited with the discovery of a hitherto unknown bat which he presented to the British Museum and which has been named after him.
Philetor brachypterus is a pipistrelle-like species that apparently occurs from Nepal all the way to New Guinea and the Bismarck Archipelago. Prior to 1966 it was thought to be unique to New Guinea, but subsequent discoveries (mostly made in museum collections) have shown that it occurred widely in Indonesia, the Philippines and continental Asia. It’s said to have relatively short wings, a large, rounded braincase and a short, deep, wide muzzle.
