KRAKER-CASTANEDA, Cristian; PEREZ, Sergio G.; CAJAS-CASTILLO, José O.  e  ECHEVERRIA-TELLO, José L.. Updated list of the bats (Mammalia, Chiroptera) of Guatemala. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2016, vol.87, n.2, pp.409-416. ISSN 2007-8706.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmb.2015.10.005.

Based on a revision of zoological collections data bases, specialized literature and scientific papers, we present a bat list for Guatemala composed by 100 species. We include 2 new records for the country (Micronycteris minuta and Carollia castanea), which are based on voucher specimens. Growing field work and taxonomic research involve periodically updating this information in order to provide precise species counts, with implications in conservation strategies.
