Abstract

We report 33 new records of Anoura aequatoris for Colombia including a specimen from Cocorná, Antioquia which represents a significant expansion in the latitudinal distribution for this taxon of almost five degrees north. All new records of A. aequatoris reported in this work correspond to collecting localities on the Central and Western Cordilleras in the Colombian Andes. In addition, morphometric differences of small Anoura from the Western and Eastern mountain ranges of the Colombian Andes are investigated.
