“…This fact possibly may intensify the lack of information on the geographical distribution of this species. Although it is an insectivorous bat registered in natural, semi‐urban, and urban areas, well adapted to the habitat modifications (Bernardi et al, 2009; Talamoni et al, 2014; Tavares et al, 2010), and widely distributed throughout South America (including Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina, Peru, and Brazil; Gardner, 2008), it was classified as data deficient (González & Barquez, 2016; Leibold et al, 2004) due to the lack of recent information about its extent of occurrence, status, and ecological requirements (e.g., Arumoogum et al, 2019; Scherrer et al, 2019; Schoeman et al, 2015).…”
