Vernacular Names: Lesser Long-nosed Bat.

Synonyms: Leptonycteris sanborni Hoffmeister 1957 .

Distribution: C California, S Arizona, and New Mexico ( USA) to Honduras and El Salvador.

Conservation: U.S. ESA – Endangered as L. curasoae yerbabuenae . IUCN 2003 – Not listed; not considered in IUCN / SSC Action Plan (2001).

Discussion: Included in curasoae by Koopman (1993), but see Watkins et al. (1972), Hall (1981), Koopman (1994), and Simmons and Wetterer (2002). The name sanborni has been used widely in the literature for this species, but is a junior synonym. A neotype for yerbabuenae was designated by Arita and Humphrey (1988).
