The family is divided into two clades, Rhinolophinae and Hipposiderinae. Rhinolophinae currently includes 1 genus and over 60 species (Koopman, 1993). Hipposiderinae is a somewhat more diverse group that includes 9 genera and over 70 extant species (Koopman, 1993). '; TEXTNOTE ID=1001 TITLE=Discussion_of_Phylogenetic_Relationships TEXT='Many authors recognize Rhinolophinae and Hipposiderinae as separate families, but there is overwhelming evidence that these groups are sister taxa (e.g., Pierson, 1986; Simmons, 1998; Simmons and Geisler, 1998; Kirsch et al., in press). Simmons (1998) and Simmons and Geisler (1998) followed Koopman (1993, 1994) in recognizing Hipposiderinae as a subfamily of Rhinolophidae, a nomenclatural arrangement that provides recognition of both the similarities and differences between these clades. Hipposiderine monophyly is strongly supported by morphological data (Simmons, 1998; Bogdanowicz and Owen, 1998; Hand and Kirsch, 1998) and monophyly of Rhinolophinae is supported by morphology (Bogdanowicz and Owen, 1992; Simmons, 1998) and immunological data (Pierson, 1986).

'; TEXTNOTE ID=1 TITLE=Geographic_Distribution TEXT='The geographical distribution of Rhinolophidae is shown in red.

Distribution from Hill and Smith (1984).

'; TEXTNOTE ID=2 TITLE=Characteristics TEXT='All rhinolophids share the following characteristics:

(1) Presence of a well-developed noseleaf.
(2) Absence of a tragus.
(3) Modifications of the hyoid apperatus, including m. stylohyoideus with a slip that passes deep to digastic muscles, reduction of the ceratohyal to half the length of epihyal, and a large, flat expansion or "foot" on lateral cranial tip of the stylohyal.
(4) Modifications of the ribcage, including fusion of at least the first five anterior ribs to the vertebrae, fusion of the second rib to the sternum, costal cartilages absent or ossified, and ribs that lack anterior laminae.
(5) Absence of m. omocervicalis absent.
(6) Dorsomedial edge of the ascending process of the ilium upturned, flares dorsally above the level of iliosacral articulation, iliac fossa large and well-defined.
(7) Articulation between pubes in male restricted to small area, consists of an ossified interpubic ligament or short symphysis.
(8) Obtuator foramen patially infilled with thin, bony sheet along posteroventral rim.
(9) Gall bladder located in umbilical fissue of liver.
