The Incan broad-nosed bat (Platyrrhinus incarum) is a bat species from the Amazon basin of South America.
Taxonomy
[edit]This species was formerly considered a subspecies of Heller's broad-nosed bat (Platyrrhinus helleri), but was split following phylogenetic and morphometric analysis of the Platyrrhinus genus.[3] The Incan broad-nosed bat, following this split, is the only member of its genus which occurs in Brazil.[4]
