About This Book

A short taxonomic note re-examines an 1861 name previously applied to a lasiurine bat and shows the original description matches the hoary bat rather than the red bat, so that older name becomes a synonym of the hoary bat; the author notes that a subspecific name would be available should the southern Mexican hoary population prove separable. Consequently a new subspecies name is proposed for the Mexican red bat, with type specimen details, an approximate range, a concise diagnosis, and comparisons against neighboring subspecies to justify the distinction.
