Peterson's long-fingered bat (Miniopterus petersoni) is a bat in the genus Miniopterus which occurs in southeast Madagascar. [2] It was described by Steven M. Goodman et al. in 2008. [2] While M. petersoni is similar to M. sororculus , the two species are not closely related to each other, and possess a number of differing external and cranial characteristics. [2]
