Promops davisoni

Promops davisoni is a species of free-tailed bat in the family Molossidae. It was first described by Oldfield Thomas in 1921.[2] While once thought of as a subspecies of the big crested mastiff bat (Promops centralis), morphological and geographical differences between P. davisoni and P. centralis are sufficiently suggestive of another species.[3] P. davisoni is native to the Andes mountain range in Ecuador and Peru.[1][4]
