DESMODONTINAE View in CoL

We captured both of the two vampire species known to occur in the Guianas at Paracou. External characters (summarized by Emmons, 1990, 1997) are sufficient for field identifications of species in this subfamily, and Koopman’s (1988) key includes useful craniodental characters as well.
