“…For four decades, it was considered endemic to Peru, known only from the type locality in the montane forests of Ayacucho department. Subsequently, Boada (2011), Regalado andAlbuja (2012), andNarváez-Romero et al (2020) reported 11 specimens that morphologically resembled S. nana from the Cordillera del Cóndor in southern Ecuador. These Ecuadorian specimens were assigned to S. nana, thereby increasing the species' distributional range 1051 km to the north.…”

The lesser yellow-shouldered bat, Sturnira nana, is a member of the most diverse genus of the New World leaf-nosed bats (Phyllostomidae). This species was considered endemic to Peru until 2009 when researchers captured a series of individuals in the Cordillera del Cóndor of southeastern Ecuador and identified them as S. nana. To assess the taxonomic status of this Ecuadorian population in relation to S. nana from Peru, we analyzed cytochrome b gene sequences and craniodental measurement data. In addition, we used principal component analysis to elucidate differences in climatic niches. Our analyses suggest that populations currently identified as S. nana from Ecuador and Peru are genetically, morphologically, and ecologically divergent. Herein, we formally describe the population of small Sturnira from Ecuador as a new species.

Esta es una especie de roedor histricomorfo poco conocida en Sudamérica y una de las más raras dentro de los puercoespines. Coendou ichillus se conoce de nueve localidades en la Amazonía de Ecuador, Perú, Colombia y Brasil. Este registro agrega nueva información sobre la distribución geográfica de esta especie y confirma su presencia en la cordillera del Cóndor, suroriente del Ecuador. This species of histricomorphic rodent is little known in South America and one of the rarest among porcupines. Coendou ichillus has been found in nine localities in the Amazon regions of Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, and Brazil. This record adds new information regarding the geographical range of this species and confirms its presence in the Cordillera del Cóndor.
