Choeroniscus godmani (Thomas, 1903)

Godman's bat was reported from Nicaragua by Handley (1966a:86), who

used the locality designation "El Realejo" for the three specimens

available to him. Actually, the three are from the nearby Hda. San

Isidro, 10 km S Chinandega. We have taken three additional specimens as

follows: Santa Rosa, 17 km N and 15 km E Boaco, 300 m, Boaco (an adult

female taken on 21 March, which was pregnant with an embryo measuring

16 mm in crown-rump length); 2 km E Yali, 900 m, Jinotega (an adult

male netted on 3 August, testes 4 mm in length); and Santa Maria de

Ostuma, 1250 m, Matagalpa (a nonpregnant, adult female captured on 11

April). Bats of this species have been taken as far north as the

western Mexican state of Sinaloa (Jones, 1964b:510).
