Its a little difficult to identify because of the state of the bat (poor thing). But the colour pattern on the back (darker head and shoulders, brown lower back) is quite distinctive of Goulds wattled bat. There is a small possibility it may be the closely related chocolate wattled bat, but usually theyre a more uniform colour. Thanks for posting.
