There is no specific information available for this species, but the Jamaican Greater Funnel-eared Bat is certainly insectivorous.	Twenty-five female Jamaican Greater Funnel-eared Bats captured in July and December did not show signs of reproductive activity.	TheJamaican Greater Funnel-eared Bat emerges after sunset and has intermittent foraging bouts extending until daybreak. Its flight has been described as fluttery and moth-like.

Nine other bat species have been found in St. Clair Cave. The Jamaican Greater Funnel-eared Bat seems to roost only with the Caribbean Lesser Funnel-eared Bat ( Chilonatalus micropus ) but forms separate groups, with the formerin the first 50 m of the hot passage and the latter replacing it further into the hot section.	Classified as Critically Endangered on The IUCN Red List. The Jamaican Greater Funnel-eared Bat might be one of the world’s mammals at greatest risk of extinction. Although it has been intensively collected and is represented in museums by at least 78 specimens,its population size appears to be very small.

Roost site receives no form of official protection (DÃ¡valos and Eriksson 2003) and it is open to unregulated human visitation. Also, the cave has resident populations of feral domestic cats that feed on bats (McFarlane 1997).	Apparently, this species requires large caves with high humidity to roost (Genoways et al. , 2005). This species is known from a single cave (Tejedor et al ., 2005). This species is moderately to highly gregarious with cave colonies estimated at fewer than 100 individuals (Tejedor et al . 2005). It occurs in the same cave with Natalus micropus (Hoyt and Baker, 1980), and other species. It occurs in a very dry and arid area with xerophytic vegetation. Its biology is poorly known (Genoways et al ., 2005). It is insectivorous (Nowak, 1999). It probably forages in rather cluttered vegetation and over relatively small home ranges (Tejedor et al . 2005).	This speciesâ€™ only known roost site, St. Clair cave, receives no form of official protection (DÃ¡valos and Eriksson 2003), and is thus open to unregulated human visitation. In addition, the cave has resident populations of feral domestic cats that feed on bats and rats of the cave (McFarlane 1997). Besides, this is a "hot cave", with poor ventilation and nearly constant high temperatures (26â€“40 C) and humidity (90%; Tejedor et al. 2005), therefore, slight changes on external conditions might have major impacts on the bat populations.	This bat is uncommon to frequent (Genoways et al.  2005). The size of St. Clairâ€™s colony appears to be very small, the only numeric estimate is that of Goodwin (1970) who reports only about 50 bats of this ;species in St. Clair.	Decreasing	This species is known from a single cave in Jamaica (Simmons 2005), fossil remains came from another cave (Tejedor et al.  2005).		Terrestrial	Protected areas are needed for this species (particularly St Clair cave), as well as regulated access to the cave to prevent excessive visitations.
