Micronycteris Megalotis
The little big-eared bat (''Micronycteris megalotis'') is a bat species in the order Chiroptera and family Phyllostomidae. It is from South and Central America particularly Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, French Guiana, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Argentina, Paraguay, Suriname and Trinidad. Though its exact population is unknown, it is considered widespread and occurs in protected areas, although deforestation may be a minor threat, it is classified as Least Concern. It is found in multistratal evergreen forests and dry thorn forests and forages near streams and is found hollow trees, logs, caverns, or houses with groups up to twelve. The head and body length measures at for males and for females. Males usually weigh about while females weigh . Description ''Micronycteris megalotis'' is considered a small bat for its genus, although the size varies slightly depending on geographical location. It has large ears which are characteristic of its species. It has a large nose pa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Common Big-eared Bat
The common big-eared bat (''Micronycteris microtis'') is a bat species from South and Central America. It is a member of the family Phyllostomidae. Recent research has demonstrated this bat's ability to find motionless food within clutter. Echolocating bats discriminate between background and prey based on glints or Doppler shifts in the echo induced by the (wing-)movements of the prey, but ''M. microtis'' can detect completely motionless prey. The species shares both the leaf-nose formation and the trait of sound emission through the nostrils with all Phyllostomidae, but its behavior is understood to be unique: the bat is able to discriminate ecologically relevant stimuli within an extremely complex cluttered sonic environment. The echolocation call of ''M. microtis'' is a broad band multi-harmonic FM sweep with most energy in the second harmonic between 95 and 75 kHz, i.e. quite similar to that of '' Macrophyllum macrophyllum'', although presumably of lower intensity.

Yates's Big-eared Bat
Yates's big-eared bat (''Micronycteris yatesi'') is a species of leaf-nosed bat found in Bolivia. Taxonomy and etymology Yates's big-eared bat was described as a new species in 2013. The holotype had been collected in February 2007. The eponym for the species name "''yatesi''" is Terry Lamon Yates, "for his pivotal contributions to the knowledge of Bolivian mammals, training Bolivian biologists, and starting collaborations that strengthened mammalian research and shaped current science and field biology in Bolivia." Description It has a forearm length of . It has long fur, which measures at its shoulders. Individual hairs are bicolored, with the basal half whitish and the tip brown. Its throat fur is white, while the rest of its ventral fur is buffy. It has long ears, measuring . It has a dental formula of for a total of 34 teeth. Range and habitat It has been documented in several parts of Bolivia, including Oropeza Province, Chiquitos Province, and Florida Province. The ...

Micronycteris Giovanniae
''Micronycteris giovanniae'' is a species of leaf-nosed bat found in Ecuador. Taxonomy and etymology It was described as a new species in 2007. The holotype had been collected in 2001. This holotype represents the only individual documented of this species as of 2016.
