Females are larger than males in many measurements, but males are usually heavier. Miller's Long-tongued Batis the largest species of Glossophaga , although wide range in measurements reflects variation among subspecies. Fur is bicolored, with hair tips darker than paler bases. Pelage is dark brown dorsally and is lighter brown ventrally but darker on chest and throat. Some individuals occasionally have small random patches of white fur, and albinism was been reported. Length of fur is ¢. 7 mm on middle of back. Muzzle is narrow and elongated. Lengths of rostrum and braincase are about equal. Upper incisors are noticeably and equally procumbent, with tips of I' and I? even, and lower incisors are well developed, usually spaced evenly.	Arid and semiarid environments including coastal areas, thorn forest, deciduous and evergreen forests, savannas, and gallery forests from sea level up to ¢. 650 m . The subspecies maricelae occurs up to elevations of ¢. 2000 m in Venezuela . Miller's Long-tongued Bat is usually associated with streams or water sources.	Miller's Long-tongued Batis the primary seed disperser and flower pollinator of columnar cacti Stenocereus griseus , Subpilocereus repandus , and Pilosocereus tillianus. It also eats pollen of these cacti and fruit from the mulberry tree Chlorophora tinctonial ( Moraceae ). In semiarid shrub habitats of Merida , fruit and pollen comprise up to 99% of total annual diet. It occasionally eats insects.	Reproductivestrategy is polyestrous and bimodal, with two reproductive peaks in December-April andJune-October. Gestation is estimated at c.3 months, with female body weight increasing by 25%. Lactating females have been found in every month except February, andjuveniles have been found in every month except April. Females have one young at a time, and young are weaned at the beginning of or during wet seasons.	On patches of xeric vegetation in the Venezuelan Andes, seasonal asynchrony among food plants and scarcity of flowers or fruit per plant might force Miller’s Long-tongued Bat to use a solitary foraging strategy. It roosts in caves, rock crevices, tree hollows, tunnels, culverts, and buildings.	Colony size of Miller’s Long-tongued Bats is usually lesser than 20 individuals and roosting typically occurs near entrances of caves. It has been found sharing roosts with other bat species such as the Lesser Doglike Bat ( Peropteryx macrotis), Peters’s Ghost-faced Bat ( Mormoops megalophylla ), Davy’s Naked-backed Bat ( Pteronotus davyr), Wagner's Lesser Mustached Bat (P. personatus), the Little Big-eared Bat ( Micronycteris megalotis ), the Greater Spear-nosed Bat ( Phyllostomus hastatus ), Pallas’s Long-tongued Bat ( Glossophaga soricina ), the Southern Longnosed Bat ( Leptonycteris curasoae ), and Seba’s Short-tailed Bat ( Carollia perspicillata ).	Classified as Least Concern on The IUCNRed List. Some subspecies have isolated and restricted distributions that could result in conservation challenges.

Jones, 1980 —S Mexico , from SC & E Oaxaca to Chiapas . Descriptive notes. Head-body 57-75 mm, tail 5-11 mm, ear 10-15 mm, hindfoot 6-13 mm, forearm 32-37 mm; weight 7-10 g. Dorsal pelage is clearly bicolored, with light bases and dark tips; venter is conspicuously frosted. Dorsum is generally pale to medium brown; venteris pale gray to tan. Rostrum and tongue are long, and noseleaf is reduced to an equilateral triangle. The Western Long-tongued Bat can be differentiated from Gray's Long-tongued Bat ( G. leachii ) by position and form of teeth; in the Western Long-tongued Bat, volume of I' is almost equalto the I? and noticeably procumbent. Mandibular incisors are reduced with occlusal surface almost circular, and they are separated from each other forming pairs to each side of mandibular symphysis and from canines by a small gap. X-chromosome is medium-sized metacentric, and Y-chromosome is minute acrocentric. Habitat. Tropical deciduous and subdeciduous forests, arid lands, thorn scrub, and pine-oak forests from sea level up to elevations of ¢. 1500 m (most records below 300 m ). The Western Long-tongued Bat has affinities to drylands butis netted over rivers and creeks in arid regions. Food and Feeding. The Western Long-tongued Bat prefers nectar and pollen but also eats fleshy soft fruits (e.g. banana and sapote). Consumption of fruits could be related to characteristic position and structure of superior and inferior incisors. Breeding. Pregnant females have been found in February—December and lactating females in March—June and December. Females seem to carry one young at a time. Activity patterns. Western Long-tongued Bats are nocturnal and roost in caves, hollow trees, culverts, and human constructions. Movements, Home range and Social organization. The Western Long-tongued Bat shares diurnal refuges with Gray’s Long-tongued Bat. Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Bibliography.

Gray in Hinds, 1844 , Realejo, Chinandeja, Nicaraa W. D. Webster and J. K. Jones, Jr. in 1980 recognized leachii as a distinct species of Glossophaga , after examination of the holotype. At that point, it was thought to include, as junior synonyms, G. soricina alticola named by W. B. Davis in 1944 and G. morenoi , which is now recognized as a valid species. Monotypic. Distribution. From C Mexico ( Jalisco , Colima , Michoacan , Morelos , and Tlaxcala ) S along the Pacific versant and associate highlands to NW Costa Rica Descriptive notes. Head-body 49-61 mm, tail 5-11 mm, ear 12-15 mm, hindfoot 9-13 mm, forearm 35-39 mm; weight 9-11 g. Relative to external measurements, Gray's Long-tongued Batis the largest species of Glossophaga in Middle America. Dorsal hairs are bicolored, with light bases and dark tips; venter is conspicuously frosted. Dorsal fur is generally cinnamon-brown to olive-brown; venter is dull grayish brown (hazel-brown) to drab. Braincase is domed, and slope of rostrum is relatively abrupt. Rostrum and tongue are long, and noseleafis short, reduced, and triangular. Dental characteristics that differentiate Gray’s Long-tongued Bat from the Western Longtongued Bat ( G. morenoi ) are that, in the latter,size of I' is very similar to I? and clearly procumbent. Mandibular incisors are reduced, with occlusal surface almost circular and large median gap between pairs; there are small gaps between inner and outer teeth. X-chromosome is medium-sized metacentric, and Y-chromosome is minute acrocentric Habitat. Relatively xeric Pacific slopes in dry tropical, tropical deciduous, and pineoak forests, with marginal records barely extending into more mesic interior tropical evergreen forests from sea level up to elevations of ¢. 2380 m . Gray’s Long-tongued Bat is usually mist-netted over streams orin fields of cultivated plants Food and Feeding. Gray's L.ong-tongued Bat preferably feeds on nectar and pollen.It visits flowers of Pseudobombax spp. ( Malvaceae ) and Ipomoea spp. ( Convolvulaceae ). It might eat some fleshy softfruits Breeding. Pregnant females, each with one embryo, have been recorded in February, April, June-September, and November and lactating females in February-March, June, and November.

Females are larger than males in many measurements, but males are usually heavier. Miller's Long-tongued Batis the largest species of Glossophaga , although wide range in measurements reflects variation among subspecies. Fur is bicolored, with hair tips darker than paler bases. Pelage is dark brown dorsally and is lighter brown ventrally but darker on chest and throat. Some individuals occasionally have small random patches of white fur, and albinism was been reported. Length of fur is ¢. 7 mm on middle of back. Muzzle is narrow and elongated. Lengths of rostrum and braincase are about equal. Upper incisors are noticeably and equally procumbent, with tips of I' and I? even, and lower incisors are well developed, usually spaced evenly. Habitat. Arid and semiarid environments including coastal areas, thorn forest, deciduous and evergreen forests, savannas, and gallery forests from sea level up to ¢. 650 m . The subspecies maricelae occurs up to elevations of ¢. 2000 m in Venezuela . Miller's Long-tongued Bat is usually associated with streams or water sources. Food and Feeding. Miller's Long-tongued Batis the primary seed disperser and flower pollinator of columnar cacti Stenocereus griseus , Subpilocereus repandus , and Pilosocereus tillianus. It also eats pollen of these cacti and fruit from the mulberry tree Chlorophora tinctonial ( Moraceae ). In semiarid shrub habitats of Merida , fruit and pollen comprise up to 99% of total annual diet. It occasionally eats insects. Breeding. Reproductivestrategy is polyestrous and bimodal, with two reproductive peaks in December-April andJune-October. Gestation is estimated at c.3 months, with female body weight increasing by 25%. Lactating females have been found in every month except February, andjuveniles have been found in every month except April. Females have one young at a time, and young are weaned at the beginning of or during wet seasons. Activity patterns. On patches of xeric vegetation in the Venezuelan Andes, seasonal asynchrony among food plants and scarcity of flowers or fruit per plant might force Miller’s Long-tongued Bat to use a solitary foraging strategy. It roosts in caves, rock crevices, tree hollows, tunnels, culverts, and buildings. Movements, Home range and Social organization. Colony size of Miller’s Long-tongued Bats is usually lesser than 20 individuals and roosting typically occurs near entrances of caves. It has been found sharing roosts with other bat species such as the Lesser Doglike Bat ( Peropteryx macrotis), Peters’s Ghost-faced Bat ( Mormoops megalophylla ), Davy’s Naked-backed Bat ( Pteronotus davyr), Wagner's Lesser Mustached Bat (P. personatus), the Little Big-eared Bat ( Micronycteris megalotis ), the Greater Spear-nosed Bat ( Phyllostomus hastatus ), Pallas’s Long-tongued Bat ( Glossophaga soricina ), the Southern Longnosed Bat ( Leptonycteris curasoae ), and Seba’s Short-tailed Bat ( Carollia perspicillata ). Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCNRed List. Some subspecies have isolated and restricted distributions that could result in conservation challenges. Bibliography.

This species can be found in thorn scrub and dry, pine-oak forest, often near water (Reid 1997). It roosts in caves, hollow trees, culverts, wells and buildings. It has been caught in mist nets set over rivers and creeks in arid regions and was recorded in Chiapas with the three other Glossophaga species found in Mexico (Webster and Jones 1985, Reid 1997). Habitat loss has been between zero and one percent over the last ten years (Cuaron and de Grammont pers. comm.)	There are no major threats throughout its range.	Inside its wide distribution it is found in few localities, and in these localities it is considered common (Arroyo-Cabrales pers. comm.).	Stable	This species is known from Chiapas to Michoacan and Tlaxcala (Mexico; Simmons 2005). It occurs from lowlands to 1,500 m asl, but is usually found below 300 m asl and close to sea level (Reid 1997, Ceballos and Oliva 2005).	This species is not used.
