GENUS Nyctimene

Author:Borkhausen, 1797.
Citation:Deutsche Fauna, 1: 86.
Type Species:Vespertilio cephalotes Pallas, 1767.
Comments:Reviewed by Smith and Hood (1983) and Bergmans (2001). Bergmans (2001) proposed inclusion of Paranyctimene as a subgenus of Nyctimene, but I retain Paranyctimene as a distinct genus pending phylogenetic studies of relationships of these taxa (see comments under Paranyctimene). Species groups follow Bergmans (2001).
