The bat appears to be a kind of horseshoe bat (genus Rhinolophus),
known for the large horseshoe-shaped "nose leaves" used for directing their ultrasound.

A new species of bat discovered in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo is pictured in this undated handout photo. The new species was discovered in an area off limits to scientists for decades because of violence, according to the New York-based Wildlife Conservation Society on August 7, 2007.
