Eumops hansae Sanborn

VOUCHER MATERIAL: 1 female (AMNH *267538); see table 59 for measurements.

IDENTIFICATION: Diagnostic characters and measurements of Eumops hansae have been discussed by Gardner et al. (1970), Eger (1977), and Brosset and Charles­Dominique (1990). No subspecies are currently recognized (Eger, 1977; Koopman, 1994).

Our Paracou specimen conforms to published descriptions of Eumops hansae and falls within the range of size variation previously reported by Gardner et al. (1970), Eger (1977), and Brosset and Charles­Dominique (1990).

FIELD OBSERVATIONS: Our single specimen of Eumops hansae was caught in a mistnet suspended 10–13 m over a narrow dirt road.
