Four specimens of this species, netted on 24 and 25 July 1967 in a
banana grove 1.5 km N and 1 km E Jalapa, 660 m, Nueva Segovia, provide
the first record of this glossophagine from Nicaragua. Two males each
had testes 6 mm in length; one female evidenced no reproduction
activity, whereas another carried an embryo 4 mm in crown-rump length.
In addition to our material, there is a specimen in the British Museum
(BM 8.6.22.4) from Cafetal "Concordia," 4000 ft, Jinotega.
It may be noteworthy that the two localities at which this bat is known
both are in the highlands of the northern part of Nicaragua, and that
we failed to take additional specimens in many hundreds of hours of
netting in other places in the country.
