Novit., 1977: 910. | | Common Name: | Jamaican Greater Funnel-eared Bat | | Type Locality: | Jamaica, St. Catherine Parish, St. Clair. | | Distribution: | Jamaica. | | Status: | IUCN 2003 – Not evaluated; not considered in IUCN/SSC Action Plan (2001). | | Comments: | Formerly included in stramineus, but clearly distinct from that species; see Morgan (1989b) and Morgan and Czaplewski (2003). Also distinct from major and primus (A. Tejedor, pers. comm.). See Arroyo-Cabrales et al. (1997), who reviewed genetic variation and possible relationships of populations of jamaicensis, major, and stramineus (although note that all were treated as stramineus).
