In Peru D. scutatus D. scutatus from a known locality for Peru. We also provide an updated distribution map for the species. was previously known from a single specimen without a specific locality. Here we report the first record of The genus Diclidurus provide an updated distribution map for the species. This Diclidurus for albus, ingens, and scutatus Wied-Neuwied, and Depanycteris 1820 for isabellusincludes four species grouped into two subgenera: specimen, an adult female, MUSM 37068 (Figure 2), was distributed from western Mexico, southeastward to eastern collected at the mouth the Yavarí river on Lago Preto, Lago (Hood and Gardner 2008; Simmons 2005).

    Amazon River Adventure, March 4 to 18, 2019 Trip Report by Fiona A. Reid Reflections, Ross Baker Participants: Evita Caune, Lynne Hertzog, Steve Pequignot, Dawn Hannay, Gwen Brewer, George Jett, Sam and Anne Crothers, Ross Baker, Lynn Whitfield, Nancy Polydys, Jerry Friis, Lucy Mason, Margo Selleck, JoEllen Arnold, Lorysa Cornish Leaders: Fiona Reid, James Adams, Moacir Fortes Jr., Ramiro Melinski March 4 We arrived in Manaus near midnight and had a short transfer direct to the LV Dorinha. We set sail at 1:30 a.m. Dorinha, Ross Baker March 5 We woke up in Janauari Lake in the Paracuuba Channel. Here we boarded canoes that took us to Xiboreninha. We saw many water birds, but the most interesting swimmer was a Southern Tamandua that made its way to dry land and up a tree. It shook and scratched itself repeatedly, perhaps to dislodge ants or termites from its fur. We also saw our first Brown-throated Three-toed Sloths and Proboscis Bats. Later we sailed upstream to a place called Anrá (pronounced uh-ha). We enjoyed views of a number of pretty icterids: Troupial, Yellow-hooded and Oriole Blackbirds, and the ubiquitous Yellow-rumped Cacique. We also saw 5 species of woodpecker and 7 species of parrot. A number of raptors were seen, including the Slate-colored Hawk. We sailed on to Janauacá Lake where we had a night trip at a place called Miuá. We saw Tropical Screech Owl, our first of many Amazon Tree Boas, and watched Lesser and Greater Fishing Bats feeding over the water. Frog diversity was good here too.

Abstract The ghost bat Diclidurus albus is considered one of the largest members of the family Emballonuridae in the Neotropics. Its distribution ranges from Mexico, Brazil to Bolivia, but in the Central American country of El Salvador, the species had not been registered yet.
