Resumo em Inglês
We examined Brazilian species of the nectar-feeding bats genus Lonchophylla (Phyllostomidae, Lonchophyllinae) to clarify
the identity of Lonchophylla bokermanni and to determine the distribution of this and other species of Lonchophylla
in eastern Brazil. As a result, we have found sufficient differences between Cerrado populations (including the type locality
of L. bokermanni) and populations inhabiting the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil,which warrant the treatment
of the Atlantic Forest populations as a separate and new species. We describe this new species here as Lonchophylla peracchii,
sp. nov. The new species appears to be restricted to the Atlantic Forest, whereas L. bokermanni is found only in
Cerrado habitats.
