The striped hairy-nosed bat (Gardnerycteris crenulatum) is a bat species of Central and South America. Its nose-leaf is elongated, spear-shaped and covered in hair, a feature unique to the species. The dense fur varies in colour, with a blackish face and a brown body that carries some yellow or orange tones, usually with pale patches behind the ears and a pale stripe along the back. It occurs from southern Mexico and the Caribbean side of Central America to Panama and across the north and centre of South America, and also on Trinidad, living in lowland forest. Groups roost in tree hollows and the bats hunt by picking insects and occasionally small invertebrates off foliage. Some evidence suggests that pairs hunt together and that parental care may be protracted, lasting up to nine months.
