San Lorenzo (toward Lita), Finca San José ( 01°3'32.1" N , 78°37' 20.7" W ). This species is monotypic.	Known only from type locality in N Esmeraldas Province , Ecuador .	Head-body 55 mm , tail 16 mm , ear 21 mm , hindfoot 11 mm , forearm 37 mm ; weight 8-6 g. Greatest length of skull is 20-9 mm (holotype). Species description was made from one specimen prepared as skin, skull, and skeleton; hence, descriptive notes reflect information of external and craniodental characteristics recovered from it. Giovanni’s Big-eared Bat is a medium-sized dark-bellied Micronycteris similar in size to the Saint Vincent Big-eared Bat (M. buriri) and Matses Big-eared Bat ( M. matses ) but smaller than the Hairy Big-eared Bat ( M. hirsuta ). Dorsal fur of Giovanni's Big-eared Bat is uniformly brown and bicolored, with pale bases and brown tips; however, pale bases are reduced on upper back and behind ears, covering only basal one-fifth of hair lengths; on shoulders, they extend over two-fifths of hair lengths. No pale bases are distinguishable in fur on lower dorsal region. In other species of Micronycteris , pale or white bases comprised one-quarter to one-half of hair lengths, uniformly on back and shoulders. Ventral fur is brown and does not clearly contrast with dorsal fur. Uropatagium, wings, forearms, and thumbs are naked. Dorsal hair is long but less than 7 mm , ventral hairis less than 6 mm , and hair behind ears and on inner border of earsis less than 5 mm . Ears are large and rounded, connected by transverse low band that extends across crown of head with evident notch in center of band, which is expected to be shallow, similar to what is seen in all its other darkbellied congeners (this characteristic is not distinguishable in skin voucher). Skull is robust, with elongated and slightly globular rostrum, which is longer than in the Little Big-eared Bat ( M. megalotis ) and Matses Big-eared Bat but less elongated than in the Hairy Big-eared Bat. Skull of Giovanni's Big-eared Bat has moderately developed sagittal crest and distinguishable lambdoidal crest. Mastoid process is slender and elongated, and it appears to slightly protrude from skull in superior view. Mastoid width is less than zygomatic width. Paroccipital processes are poorly developed and do not exceed occipital condyles. Maxillae are more inflated than in other dark-bellied species. I' are wider and more robust than those in Matses Big-eared Bat and the Little Big-eared Bat, and I* are small and convergent. Lower incisors are small, robust, bilobated, and not hypsodont. Giovanni’s Big-eared Bat has been distinguished from other species of Micronycteris by variation in cytochrome-b and intron 7 ofthe beta-fibrinogen gene (Fgb-17) sequences. These molecular analyses indicated that the holotype is most similar to Matses Big-eared Bat and related closely to a group that includes Little Bigeared Bats and Common Big-eared Bats ( M. microtis ). Uncorrected genetic distances between Giovanni's Big-eared Bat and other dark-bellied species range from 5-3% to 9:8% in the complete cytochrome-b gene and from 1% to 5:8% in the Fgb-17 marker. Chromosomal complement of Giovanni's Big-eared Bat has 2n = 40 and FN = 68, similar to that of the Little Big-eared Bat.	Evergreen lowland forest of Ecuadorian coast (type locality), with typical vegetation from southern border of the Choco region . Plant community is dominated by species taller than 30 m , especially palms and species of Moraceae .

At this point is impossible to have a better assessment of the endangered status of the species.	Habitat at the type locality consists of secondary-growth forest that, at the time of collecting the holotype, was being deforested. As other areas surrounding San Lorenzo town, the vegetation is typical from the southern border of the Chocó region. The holotype was collected in a mist net stretched under a narrow bridge above an active stream (Fonseca et al. 2007).	Habitat transformation was especially intense at the region were the type specimen was caught. At other nearby regions, however, some forested areas were preserved by local communities.	The species is only known by a single specimen.	Unknown	This species is known only by the type specimen from the type locality in Esmeraldas Province, western Ecuador (Fonseca et al.  2007).
