174:(promoted to FA a few weeks ago) that is part of a group of superficially similar, but genetically distinctive species. This article was GA reviewed by Casliber and incorporates suggestions by several other people who reviewed the articles I wrote on other species from this group. I am looking forward to your reviews.

I prefer "is known to", because it is extremely likely that the true range is greater. The sources use similar wording ("Miniopterus aelleni is known to occur in northern and western
Madagascar across the elevational range of near sea level—1110 m and on Anjouan from 220–690 m." Goodman et al. 2009b:

187:– Another fine (but technical) article that is very thorough and well-sourced. Given that Casliber did the GAC, I'm not surprised that I didn't find any obvious issues. –
267:: Good stuff so far. This does not seem far off from FA standards. I do, however, feel that the prose can be improved. I have begun a line-by-line prose review

It meets all the FAC criteria so far as I can tell, and it's an interesting read to boot. I'm happy to support it.

None. Easy, isn't it? Hamiltonstone has kindly added an external link that includes some pictures of the animal.

Within M. aelleni, Goodman and colleagues found some differentiation (3.4% divergence in cytochrome b sequences)
211:: Sources and citations look fine, no obvious issues. No spotchecks carried out (sources not accessible to me).

402:(2.4%). However, there is no discussion in the sources of the significance of these divergences.

Thanks for the check. The most important source, Goodman et al. (2009b), is in fact open access.
