Monatsb. K. Preuss. Akad. Wiss. Berlin, 1865: 505
.
Type Locality:
Brazil
,
Mato Grosso
, Cuiaba (= Cuyaba).
Vernacular Names:

Distribution:
Known only from the
holotype
.
Conservation:
IUCN

Micronycteris behnii
.
Discussion:
Restricted to include only the
holotype
by
Simmons (1996)
. This taxon may be a senior synonym of
sylvestis
, but the relationship of these taxa cannot be resolved without reexamination of the
holotype
of
behnii
in the context of what is now known about variation in
sylvestris
; see discussion in
Simmons (1996)
.
