Wikipedia Abstract

The Florida bonneted bat (Eumops floridanus) is a species of bat in the genus Eumops, the bonneted bats or mastiff bats. Until recently, it was treated as a subtaxon of Wagner's bonneted bat (Eumops glaucinus). It is endemic to southern Florida in the United States. Its range includes Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Coral Gables, Florida. This species has one of the smallest geographical distributions of any New World bat. It has been called "one of the most critically endangered mammal species in North America".
