[ edit ]
It seems to be relatively adaptable to cultivated areas, with animals recorded from tree plantations, botanic gardens, farm areas, and rural gardens. The species shows some migratory patterns with both sexes moving between forest and savanna habitats. The generation length is about 4.25 years. It is migratory, with both sexes moving between forest and savanna habitats. It is generally a lowland species, but has been recorded up to 1,200 m asl.[1]
They feed on flowers as well as fruit. When feeding, the bats may clasp the ball of flowers, lapping nectar from the circular depression.[2]
