The Natal free-tailed bat (Mormopterus acetabulosus) is a species of bat in the family Molossidae, the free-tailed bats. It is native to the islands of Mauritius and Réunion.[1] It is known from fewer than five locations in its range, but it is common at a few sites. It roosts in caves, and it is considered to be a vulnerable species due to disturbance of its cave habitat.[1]
