UNVOUCHERED OBSERVATIONS: One individual of Sturnira magna was captured at the Quebrada Limera locality during the Yavarí Rapid Biological Inventory (Escobedo, 2003). IDENTIFICATION: Sturnira magna can be distinguished from other congeners by its large size (forearm> 51 mm , greatest length of skull> 27 mm ); U-shaped posterior border of the hard palate; first upper incisors blunt and in contact; and lower-molar metaconids and entoconids poorly defined, usually forming a continuous, sloping lingual ridge (Gardner, 2008h; López-Baucells et al., 2018). Descriptions and measurements of S. magna were provided by de la Torre (1966), Peterson and Tamsitt (1968), Gardner (1976), Swanepoel and Genoways (1979), and Tamsitt and Häuser (1985). No subspecies are currently recognized (Gardner, 2008h). Ascorra et al. (1993), Fleck et al. (2002), and Medina et al. (2015) correctly identified their material from Jenaro Herrera , Nuevo San Juan , Quebrada Betilia, Quebrada Lobo, and Quebrada Sábalo. The voucher material we examined from the Yavarí-Ucayali interfluve conforms to previous descriptions of Sturnira magna , with measure- ments that fall within the range of size variation previously documented for the species. REMARKS: The only specimens of Sturnira magna accompanied by capture data from our region were taken in ground-level mistnets near Nuevo San Juan , one in upland primary forest and two others in a swampy mineral lick ( collpa ).
