Abstract Uroderma magnirostrum Davis, 1968, the Brown Tent-making Bat, is a medium-sized frugivorous phyllostomid. It is characterized by poorly defined facial and dorsal stripes, large bifid upper inner incisors, and a laterally expanded mesethmoid bone. Uroderma magnirostrum is widely distributed between western Mexico and southeastern Brazil, and across its distribution, it inhabits different types of environments (e.g., pristine tropical forests; farmlands; mangroves; savannas; urban green areas). It is listed as “Least Concern” (LC) by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources but appears in national red lists, such as those from Guatemala and Nicaragua, due to the significant impact of the human activities in these countries.
