Artibeus

Reliable species identifications within the genus Artibeus as recognized herein (including Dermanura and Koopmania) requires reference to Handley (1987) and Marques­ Aguiar (1994). Although Lim and Wilson’s (1993) concept of Artibeus jamaicensis differs from ours, their keys are also useful for distinguishing the larger species of Artibeus (subgenus Artibeus) in northern South America.
