Treatment

Choeronycteris mexicana Tschudi, 1844 View in CoL View at ENA . Fauna Peruana, 1:72.

TYPE LOCALITY: Mexico .

DISTRIBUTION: Honduras and El Salvador to S California, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico ( USA); a single record from S Texas; perhaps Venezuela.

COMMENTS: It is doubtful that ponsi Pirlot, 1967 (described from NW Venezuela) is referrable to this genus, and the description is inadequate to allocate it; see Jones and Carter (1976:18). See Arroyo-Cabrales et al. (1987, Mammalian Species, 291).
