Resumen
Lonchophylla peracchii was recently described
from Rio de Janeiro Atlantic Forest samples previously
assigned to either L. bokermanni Sazima, Vizotto &
Taddei, 1978 or L. mordax Thomas, 1903. The species
is currently restricted to the Atlantic Forest of
Southeastern Brazil. Based on museum specimens, we
extend the species distribution to the Atlantic Forest of
Northeastern Brazil. The specimens reported here were
collected in Ilhéus, Bahia state, representing a range
extension of ca. 500 km northward.
