These features are shared only with T. (Chaerephon) gallagheri from Zaire and, in part, with T. (C.) johorensis from the Malayan Peninsula, two species that appear to be the closest allies. The families Molossidae (the new species and T. (C.) pumila) and Emballonuridae (Taphozous mauritianus) are recorded for the first time, for the island of S{\~a}o Tom{\'e}.}, keywords = {Africa, Chaerephon gallagheri, Chaerephon johorensis, Chaerephon pumilus, Chaerephon tomensis sp. nov., Chiroptera, Congo (Kinshasa), Emballonuridae, endemic, evolution, Faunistik, Flederm{\"a}use, Gulf of Guinea, island biogeography, Malaysia, Mammalia, Molossidae, S{\~a}o Tom{\'e}, speciation, species richness, sympatric, systematics, Taphozous mauritianus, taxonomy, zoogeography}, author = {Juste B., J. and Ib{\'a}{\~n}ez, C.} }
