Brachipposideros collongensis is an extinct hipposiderid bat, also classified as Hipposideros (Brachipposideros) collongensis. A study of fossil teeth distinguished it from related forms by its comparatively less reduced third molars; it was larger than B. aguilari and smaller than B. dechaseauxi.^[1]
