REPRODUCTIVE, MORPHOMETRIC, AND ROOSTING DESCRIPTION OF THE HONDURAN WHITE BAT, Ectophylla alba (CHIROPTERA: PHYLLOSTOMIDAE), IN HONDURASReproducción, morfometría y descripción de los dormideros del murciélago blanco hondureño, Ectophylla alba (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae), en Honduras. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.1, pp.172-176.  Epub 17-Jun-2020. ISSN 0327-9383.

Since 1984, no morphometric data has been recorded for Ectophylla alba in Honduras. Records of pregnant females and description of roosts used by this species were never reported for the country. We describe herein a tent of Heliconia sp. used by three individuals of E. alba, report two records of pregnant females; with ecological data of three individuals from Rus Rus, Gracias a Dios, southeastern Honduras. We recommend monitoring E. alba in Rus Rus because it may be the most important region for the conservation of this threatened species in Honduras.
