Hipposideros winsburyorum is a hipposiderid species of bat known by fossil specimens, one of the many new taxa of chiropterans discovered in the Riversleigh World Heritage Area. The species existed during the Pliocene.
A species of the Hipposideridae, known as Old World leaf-nosed bats, a microbat that used echolocation to forage for prey.The species probably roosted in a limestone cave that was associated with a pool or lake in the rainforest that dominated the area.
The species, as with other hipposiderids, is represented in fossil record of the Riversleigh fauna, but is only known from that area. The karst system created by the Gregory River provided Hipposideros winsburyorum with an ideal environment for refuge and foraging opportunities.
