Eptesicus chiriquinus (Chiriquinan Serotine)

Wikipedia Abstract

The Chiriquinan serotine (Eptesicus chiriquinus) is a species of house bat. The Chiriquinan serotine is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List due to its wide distribution and the unlikelihood of its speedy decline. However, the species is poorly known and may be rare. Its worst known threat is habitat modification, and it has been known to exist in protected areas. It is considered to be distinct from the little black serotine and the Brazilian brown bat. The IUCN Red List includes Eptesicus montosus with the Chiriquinan serotine.
