Tschudi's yellow-shouldered bat

Mammals

Tschudi's yellow-shouldered bat, scientific name Sturnira oporaphilum, is a species of leaf-nosed bat. English Wikipedia says it is indigenous to Argentina, Ecuador and Peru, with its range also encompassing Bolivia. The Global Biodiversity Information Facility backbone lists it as an accepted species in the genus Sturnira, in the family Phyllostomidae of the order Chiroptera, and credits its description to Tschudi in 1844. The English Wikipedia article is a very short stub, and the iNaturalist taxon record adds no conservation status, so this description reports only identity, classification and range and makes no claim about its size, diet or habits.
