Notes

^ Gomes and Reid (2015) list 68 species. Gutiérrez et al. (2017) reclassified Tobagonian bats formerly classified as Myotis nigricans as a new species, M. attenboroughi, but were uncertain as to whether Trinidadian individuals belonged to this species or were members of an undescribed cryptic species they called Myotis aff. nigricans.
