Glen's long-fingered bat (Miniopterus gleni) is a bat of the family Miniopteridae that the Mammal Diversity Database records only from Madagascar, in the Afrotropical realm. R. L. Peterson, Eger and Mitchell described it in 1995 in the Faune de Madagascar volume on bats, from a marine cave between Sarodrano and Saint Augustin about 20 kilometres south of Toliara. The database lists it in Mammal Species of the World of 2005, gives its IUCN Red List status as Least Concern, and records the alternative common name Glen's bent-winged bat.
