Micronycteris megalotis
Arenal and Monteverde are the two atlas places where the Little Big-eared Bat is recorded. Its records concentrate in Mexico, Guyana, Colombia, Peru and Brazil, with the atlas holding 126 open records across ten countries. This mammal, known scientifically as Micronycteris megalotis, belongs to the family Phyllostomidae. The map provides a complete picture of its known range rather than a partial concentration.
These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Little Big-eared Bat as much as where it lives. Cells are up to 25 km across, and every location is generalised to its cell.
Generalised encounter areas, not exact locations. Each shape is a grid cell coloured by how likely the species is there.
Conservation status not assessed here yet, so every location is generalised to its grid cell.
