Chilonycteris gymnonotus = Pteronotus gymnonotus (big naked-backed bat)

The big naked-backed bat (Pteronotus gymnonotus), is a bat species of family Mormoopidae from South and Central America. Instead of attaching to the sides of the bat, its wings attach to its back near its spine. This gives individuals the appearance of having a "naked back" due to the lack of fur on its wings. However, its back is furred under the wings. The big naked-backed bats are found in Belize Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, and Venezuela.
