Another new bat species for the Bat Team

Monday, March 4, 2019

We captured this beautiful medium sized Molosside in Misiones in Feb 2019. It is Nyctinomops laticaudatus. This is quite a rare species and although similar to the more common Tadarida brasiliensis, it has some notable differences. It is insectivorous and has a distinct echolocation call. Thanks to Temaiken for allowing us to use their Reserva Osununu.
