The big-eared horseshoe bat is a horseshoe bat that can be told from its relatives by very long ears and a tongue-shaped sella, the leaf-like structure on the nose, that is long and broad. It has been documented across South and Southeast Asia, including Nepal, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam (Wikipedia, general species account).

It has been recorded at elevations from 200 to 1,692m. The source opened here is a short account that gives no measurements, diet or roosting information, so none is stated, and the entry is kept thin. Nationally Least Concern (Nepal National Red List 2011).
