Treatment

Sturnira (Sturnira) luisi Davis 1980 , Occas. Pap. Mus. Texas Tech Univ., 70: 1.

Type Locality: Costa Rica, Alajuela, 11 mi. (18 km) NE Naranjo, Cariblanco, 3,000 ft. (914 m).

Vernacular Names: Luis's Yellow-shouldered Bat.

Distribution: Costa Rica to Ecuador and NW Peru.

Conservation: IUCN 2003 and IUCN / SSC Action Plan (2001) – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Subgenus Sturnira . The presence of this species in Colombia has not been verified; previously confused with Sturnira ludovici (Tamsitt, in Honacki et al., 1982). Brosset and Charles-Dominique (1990) suggested that luisi might be conspecific with tildae , but see Simmons and Voss (1998).
