The Thai horseshoe bat, sometimes called the Thai leaf-nosed bat, is a species of bat in the family Rhinolophidae, native to China, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam. It is frequently listed as a subspecies of the big-eared horseshoe bat, but this may result from the two species having been taken together in Laos (Wikipedia, general species account).

Little is known about it, including its abundance, population trend, natural history or presence in protected areas. It is assumed to be associated with limestone caves in evergreen forests, like other species of its genus.
