Check Schlieffen's Twilight Bat (Nyctecius schlieffeni) 
EDIT: Forearm varies in length from 29 to 35 mm; perhaps this is useful as measurements might be possible to obtain by comparing with the mesh of the background net.

Thanks Rafael, I reckon you've nailed it! Measurement looks about right based upon my estimate, but sadly I have no idea about the mesh size so cannot check. I just need to make sure there's no confusion species that can't be ruled out; quick google suggests not.
