Resumen
VELAZCO, Paúl M et al. New records of Platalina genovensium (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae) and Tomopeas ravus (Chiroptera, Molossidae). Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2013, vol.20, n.2, pp.425-434. ISSN 1666-0536.
The monotypic bat genera Platalina and Tomopeas are rare and known from few localities throughout their distributions. These species have not been recorded in the northern half of their distributions for the last 4 and 3 decades, respectively, suggesting local extirpation. Here we present new records for both taxa from a 2012 expedition conducted in the northern end of their distributions. We suggest a role the oil concessions in the area can play towards the conservation of these two unusual bat species, as well as additional actions that will help to protect them.
