This is a pamphlet announcing the discovery of a new bat species, Myotis elegans. It is a species of vesper bat found in Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Nicaragua. The elegant myotis is a small bat, brown fur on the dorsal side while the ventral side is lighter and golden. Its ears are pale brown, and its flight membranes are slightly darker than its fur. The ears feature a slender and deeply notched tragus.
