Description

Platyrrhinus infuscus (Peters, 1880)

VOUCHER MATERIAL: El Diamante: 5 adult females (FMNH 203452, 203634, 203638; MUSM 39213, 39214), 5 adult males (FMNH 203450, 203454, 203636; MUSM 39211, 39212); Waqanki: 4 adult females (FMNH 203630, 203632; MUSM 39206, 39209), 8 adult males (FMNH 203444, 203446, 203448, 203628; MUSM 39205, 39207, 39208, 39210); see table 13 for measurements.

IDENTIFICATION: We consulted descriptions and measurements of Platyrrhinus infuscus provided by Cabrera (1958), Gardner and Carter (1972), Swanepoel and Genoways (1979), Velazco (2005), and Velazco and Gardner (2009). No subspecies are currently recognized in P. infuscus (Gardner, 2008d). Our Mayo River basin specimens exhibit the diagnostic characteristics of the species: larger size (FA> 54 mm); dark brown dorsal pelage; facial and dorsal stripes inconspicuous; short, sparse hair on the upper surface of feet; posterolabial cuspulid present on p5; M1 parastyle present; and m1 metaconid well developed (Velazco, 2005; Gardner, 2008d). Measurements of our specimens fall within the range reported for the species.
