WAGNER´S BONNETED BAT Eumops glaucinus
Eumops bats are notable for their huge, forward-facing ears which are joined across the forehead. It is a difficult group with measurements often being needed for identification purposes. This is a medium-sized Eumops characterised by its pale brownish pelage when compared to the similar-sized Eumops auripendulus.
