Treatment

Natalus stramineus Gray 1838 , Mag. Zool. Bot., 2: 496.

Type Locality: Specified as unknown in the original description. Cabrera (1958) restricted the type locality to Lagoa Sanata, Minas Gerais, Brazil, but Goodwin (1959 b) disagreed. Based on measurements and cranial morphology, Goodwin (1959 b) concluded that the holotype was probably from Antigua, Lesser Antilles. Handley and Gardner (1990) subsequently confirmed the identity of the holotype and confirmed restriction of the type locality to Antigua .

Vernacular Names: Mexican Greater Funnel-eared Bat.

Subspecies Natalus stramineus subsp. stramineus Gray 1838

Does not include major , jamaicensis , or primus ; see Morgan (1989 b) and Morgan and Czaplewski (2003), but also see Linares (1971). Arroyo-Cabrales et al. (1997) reviewed genetic variation and possible relationships of populations of major and stramineus . Morphometrics and distribution within South America reviewed by Taddei and Uieda (2001); see Timm and Genoways (2003) for discussion of the Carbibbean form.
