The systematic and historical status of the Florida Eumops (Chiroptera, Molossidae). American Museum novitates ; no. 2478

6 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.Includes bibliographical references (p. 6)."Specimens of Eumops from Florida that have been identified as E. glaucinus are shown to be markedly larger than tropical American material of that species. The Recent Florida specimens show good agreement, however, with the Florida Pleistocene E. floridanus. Judged by the degree of difference which characterizes specific as opposed to subspecific differentiation in Eumops, the Florida form may be called Eumops glaucinus floridanus. No convincing explanation has been found for the restriction of this form to extreme southern Florida since the Pleistocene"--P. [1]
