), this roost contained at least four bats, of which three (an adult male, an adult female, and one juvenile) were collected as vouchers. The roosting bats, hanging in a tight cluster from the midrib of the leaf about 1.5 m above the ground (arrow), were invisible from any vantage point except directly underneath. Some six to eight abandoned roosts of identical construction were found within about 100 m of this example. See figures 44 and 45 for closeups.

, and measurements of our specimens generally fall within the range of variation previously reported for the species. One exception is a particularly large male (AMNH 267987), whose measurements in several dimensions exceed any previously reported in the literature (e.g., length of maxillary toothrow, 6.08 mm; breadth across molars, 8.30 mm; zygomatic breadth, 11.47 mm). Except in size, however, this specimen agrees morphologically with the remainder of our specimens, and we conclude that it simply represents an unusually large example. Unpublished measurement data from other localities (in Venezuela, Guyana, Peru, and Brazil; Handley, personal commun.) indicate that AMNH 267987 is not unique in this respect, and that the normal range of size variation in
