IDENTIFICATION: We consulted descriptions and measurements of Sturnira tildae provided by de la Torre (1959), Goodwin and Greenhall (1961), Hill (1964), Marinkelle and Cadena (1971), Husson (1978), Genoways and Williams (1979), Swanepoel and Genoways (1979), Brosset and Charles-Dominique (1990), Anderson (1997), Simmons and Voss (1998), and Lim et al. (2005). No subspecies are currently recognized in S. tildae (Gardner, 2008e). Our specimens conform in all respects to previous descriptions of S. tildae and exhibit the diagnostic characteristics of the species: medium size (FA 43–51 mm, GLS 24–26 mm); shoulder glands (epaulettes) present and well defined; metacarpal III shorter than metacarpal V; tips of inner upper incisors broad and weakly bicuspidate with lobes of equal size; metaconids and entoconids of m1, m2, and m3 well defined and separated by a notch; and paraconulids not present on m1 and m2 (Gardner, 2008e). Measurements of our specimens fall within the range of measurements previously reported for the species.Published as part of Velazco, Paúl M. & Patterson, Bruce D., 2019, Small Mammals Of The Mayo River Basin In Northern Peru, With The Description Of A New Species Of Sturnira (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae), pp. 1-69 in Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 2019 (429) on page 4

IDENTIFICATION: We consulted descriptions and measurements of Artibeus glaucus provided by Andersen (1908), Davis (1970), Carter and Dolan (1978), Swanepoel and Genoways (1979), Anderson (1997), Lim et al. (2008), and Ortega et al. (2015). No subspecies are currently recognized in A. glaucus (Lim et al., 2008). Our Mayo River basin specimens exhibit the diagnostic characteristics of the species: dark gray to blackish dorsal pelage; dark ears; V-shaped posterior margin of uropatagium; rostrum not elevated with a concavity present dorsally; U-shaped posterior border of the hard palate; mesopterygoid fossa not constricted posteriorly on basicranium; well-developed angular process reaching the level of the condyloid process; and presence of three lower molars (Marques-Aguiar, 2008; Díaz et al., 2016). Measurements of our specimens fall within the range reported for the species. REMARKS: One female (FMNH 203616) that we collected was lactating.Published as part of Velazco, Paúl M. & Patterson, Bruce D., 2019, Small Mammals Of The Mayo River Basin In Northern Peru, With The Description Of A New Species Of Sturnira (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae), pp. 1-69 in Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 2019 (429) on page 2

Lonchophylla handleyi Hill 1980
No full textLonchophylla handleyi Hill, 1980 VOUCHER MATERIAL: Tarapoto: 1 subadult male (FMNH 203346); see table 8 for measurements. IDENTIFICATION: Descriptions and measurements of Lonchophylla handleyi have been provided by Gardner (1976), Bowles et al. (1979), Hill (1980), Solari et al. (1999), Dávalos (2004), Woodman and Timm (2006), Woodman (2007), Dávalos and Corthals (2008), and Mantilla-Meluk et al. (2010). No subspecies are currently recognized in L. handleyi (Griffiths and Gardner, 2008b). Our specimen conforms in almost all respects to previous descriptions and exhibits the diagnostic characteristics of L. handleyi: fringe of hairs on the uropatagium; moderately inflated postorbital region; postorbital processes absent; posterior margin of infraorbital foramen located above the posterior root of P5; and weakly developed posterolingual cusp of P5 (Woodman and Timm, 2006; Griffiths and Gardner, 2008b). Because our specimen is a subadult, its measurements fall at the lower end or just outside the ranges previously reported for L. handleyi.Published as part of Velazco, Paúl M. & Patterson, Bruce D., 2019, Small Mammals Of The Mayo River Basin In Northern Peru, With The Description Of A New Species Of Sturnira (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae), pp. 1-69 in Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 2019 (429) on page 1

IDENTIFICATION: We consulted descriptions and measurements of Mesophylla macconnelli provided by Goodwin and Greenhall (1962), Ceballos Bendezú (1968), Starrett and Casebeer (1968), Carter and Dolan (1978), Swanepoel and Genoways (1979), Brosset and Charles-Dominique (1990), Anderson (1997), and Simmons and Voss (1998). No subspecies are currently recognized in M. macconnelli (Arroyo-Cabrales, 2008a). Our Mayo River basin specimens exhibit the diagnostic characteristics of the species: small size (FA 28–34 mm); ears and noseleaf yellow in live specimens, but paler in museum specimens; small accessory noseleaflike structure present behind the noseleaf; skull short with a relatively narrow rostrum; palate extending well behind the last molars; upper inner incisors long, convergent, and usually with weakly bifid tips; m2 lacking a posterior cuspulid; and minute m3 (Arroyo-Cabrales, 2008a). Measurements of our specimens fall within the range reported for the species.Published as part of Velazco, Paúl M. & Patterson, Bruce D., 2019, Small Mammals Of The Mayo River Basin In Northern Peru, With The Description Of A New Species Of Sturnira (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae), pp. 1-69 in Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 2019 (429) on page 2

IDENTIFICATION: We follow Díaz-Nieto et al. (2011) and Díaz-Nieto et al. (2016) in recognizing M. caucae as a species distinct from M. impavidus. Our specimens conform in all respects to the morphology and measurements described by Díaz-Nieto et al. (2011) for M. caucae (e.g., interdigital pad 4 and hypothenar pad of hind foot in contact, two antebrachial vibrissae, palatine fenestrae present, subsquamosal foramen constricted anteroposteriorly, absence of accessory cusps on the upper canine). REMARKS: The adult female was caught in a Victor rat trap in an agricultural field. The two adult males were caught in Victor rat traps in a renacal (flooded forest of Coussapoa trinervia).Published as part of Velazco, Paúl M. & Patterson, Bruce D., 2019, Small Mammals Of The Mayo River Basin In Northern Peru, With The Description Of A New Species Of Sturnira (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae), pp. 1-69 in Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 2019 (429) on page
