Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Darren Pietersen
Comment:   Unfortunately the photos aren't clear enough to see whether there are double tubercles at the base of the first finger (the characteristic of T. krugerensis). Could be T. krugerensis, T. tandyi or T. cryptotis.
