Fischer's little fruit bat (Rhinophylla fischerae) is a bat species found in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela. [1] [2]
The strange big-eared brown bat, is a bat species from South America. It is found in Brazil.
The dwarf little fruit bat is a species of leaf-nosed bat from South America.
The greater round-eared bat is a bat species found in northeastern and southern Brazil, northern Argentina, Paraguay and Bolivia. The species feeds on fruit as well as hunting small birds. Once caught, birds are taken to a shelter and consumed.
The bidentate yellow-eared bat is a species of bat in the family Phyllostomidae, native to South America. Formerly classified in the Vampyressa genus, phylogenetic analyses support its inclusion in Vampyriscus.
Carollia is a genus of bats often referred to as the short-tailed fruit bats. Along with the genus Rhinophylla, Carollia makes up the subfamily Carolliinae of family Phyllostomidae, the leaf-nosed bats. Currently, nine species of Carollia are recognized, with a number having been described since 2002. Members of this genus are found throughout tropical regions of Central and South America but do not occur on Caribbean islands other than Trinidad and Tobago. Bats of the genus Carollia often are among the most abundant mammals in neotropical ecosystems and play important roles as seed dispersers, particularly of pioneer plants such as those of the genera Piper, Cecropia, Solanum, and Vismia. Carollia are primarily frugivorous; however, C. perspicillata, C. castanea, and C. subrufa are known to feed on insects.
Aethalops is a genus of megabats in the family Pteropodidae. It contains two species:
The disk-footed bat is a species of vesper bat in the Vespertilionidae family found in Laos and Myanmar. The disc-footed bat was recorded in the northeastern Indian state's (Meghalaya), Lailad area near the Nongkhyllem Wildlife Sanctuary. It is about 1000 km west of the bats nearest known habitat, Myanmar.
The Surat helmeted bat is a species of vesper bat. It ranges from Thailand and Laos west to Nepal.
The Sunda long-eared bat is a species of vesper bat. It is found only in Indonesia.
Joffre's bat, also known as Joffre's pipistrelle, is a species of vesper bat in the family Vespertilionidae. It is the only member of the genus Mirostrellus. It is found in South and Southeast Asia. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Behn's bat, Behn's big-eared bat, or Behn's graybeard bat is a species of bat in the family Phyllostomidae found in Brazil and Peru. It is known only from six specimens and is considered rare. It feeds on insects and small fruits.
Pallas's tube-nosed bat, also known as the Torresian tube-nosed bat or northern tube-nosed bat, is a species of megabat in the Nyctimene genus found in Indonesia. Its range may extend to New Guinea, but sightings may be attributable to misidentification. Its range may at one time also have extended to Timor, but was extirpated due to habitat loss.
Rhinophylla is a genus of South American bats in the family Phyllostomidae containing these species:
Bat Conservation International (BCI) is an international nongovernmental organization working to conserve bats and their habitats through conservation, education, and research efforts.
The orbiculus leaf-nosed bat, also known as the orbiculus roundleaf bat and small disc roundleaf bat, is a species of bat from the family Hipposideridae. The species has been found on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia and on peninsular Malaysia.
The southern big-eared brown bat is a species of bat from the family Vespertilionidae. Although current taxonomy treats the southern big-eared brown bat as a separate species, it is often treated as a subspecies of the small big-eared brown bat. It lives in the forests of southern Argentina and Chile; though the population of the bat in the southern part of its habitat is low, there are no major concerns to justify anything lower than a Least Concern rating in the IUCN Red List.
