Discussion: Apparently includes Otonycteris ; see Qumsiyeh and Bickham (1993) and Bogdanowicz et al. (1998), although also see Pine et al. (1971) and Hoofer and Van Den Bussche (2001). For phylogenies also see Tumlison and Douglas (1992) and Frost and Timm (1992). See Frost and Timm (1992) for generic diagnoses, but note that they included Idionycteris in Euderma .
