Extension of the known geographic distribution of Lampronycteris brachyotis (Dobson, 1879) (Mammalia, Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae): first records from the Cerrado of the Brazilian Midwest, in the state of Mato Grosso

Lampronycteris brachyotis is known to occur at 12 localities in 11 Brazilian states, encompassing the Amazon, Caatinga, Cerrado, and Atlantic Forest biomes. Here, we report the capture of two specimens in gallery forests within the Cerrado of the state of Mato Grosso. These records expand the known range of L. brachyotis into the Brazilian Midwest
