The genus ''Corynorhinus'' consists of the lump-nosed bats, or American long-eared bats. Only three species occur in the genus, all occurring in North America. Members of this group were previously in the genus ''Plecotus''. Populations of these species are generally uncommon and declining. Two subspecies, the Virginia big-eared bat (''C. t. virginianus'') and the Ozark big-eared bat (''C. t. ingens'') are federally endangered. ''Corynorhinus'' species are: *''Corynorhinus rafinesquii'' Rafinesque's big-eared bat *''Corynorhinus mexicanus'' Mexican big-eared bat *''Corynorhinus townsendii'' Townsend's big-eared bat * *''C. t.ingens'' Ozark big-eared bat (endangered) * *''C. t. pallescens'' western big-eared bat * *''C. t. townsendii'' Townsend's big-eared bat * *''C. t.virginianus'' Virginia big-eared bat (endangered) ==References== * Nowak, R.
