The Saint Vincent big-eared bat (Micronycteris buriri) is a bat species of the family Phyllostomidae, the leaf-nosed bats, in the order Chiroptera and the class Mammalia. It belongs to the genus Micronycteris and was named by Larsen, Siles, Pedersen and Kwiecinski in 2011, according to the authority recorded in the GBIF backbone taxonomy. It is found on the island of Saint Vincent in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and its common name refers to that island. The English Wikipedia article on the species is a one-sentence stub, so the sources used here record its identity, its classification and its locality but nothing about its diet, roosting habits, size or conservation status.
