Pteronotus davyi fulvus (Thomas, 1892)

_Specimens._--_Chontales_: Cuapa, 4. _Matagalpa_: 3 mi E San Ramon,

126.

This small naked-backed bat has not been reported previously from

Nicaragua. Autopsy of seven females collected on 9 May near San Ramon

revealed that four were pregnant, each with a single embryo--average

crown-rump length 25.0 (21-29) mm.

The distribution of _P. davyi_ is poorly known in much of Central

America. The species was reported only recently from Costa Rica

(Starrett and Casebeer, 1968:8) and is unknown from Panama. We assign

our specimens tentatively to the subspecies _fulvus_ on geographic

grounds.
