The greater roundleaf bat (Doryrhina camerunensis) is a species of bat in the family Hipposideridae found in Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Kenya.[1] Previously placed in Hipposideros, it was transferred to Doryrhina because it is assumed to be closely related to the cyclops roundleaf bat (Doryrhina cyclops).[2]
