Tailed tailless bat
The tailed tailless bat (''Anoura caudifer'') is a species of leaf-nosed bat from South America.
==Name==
The scientific name of this species is variously given as either ''A. caudifer'' or ''A. caudifera'', with scientists having argued for both names on the basis of Latin grammar and of the ICZN rules on the naming of species.〔〔(ITIS )〕 When Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire first described the bat in 1818, he used the species name "''caudifer''", and this is the name currently preferred by such influential sources as the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and ''Mammal Species of the World''.〔〔
The common name of the bat is typically given as the "tailed tailless bat".〔 This is because the species belongs to the genus ''Anoura'', commonly called the "tailless bats", yet it possesses a tail. However, the name is arguably somewhat misleading, since only three of the other seven species of "tailless bats" genuinely lack a tail. Of the remaining four, however, three have tails that are significantly shorter even than that of ''A. caudifer'', and the fourth, the equatorial tailless bat, was only distinguished from ''A. caudifer'' in 2006.
