Nectar feeding bats of the genus Anoura are a common component of the highlands of the Neotropics. Distribution of Anoura species are thought to be primarily influenced by the geologic complexity of the northern portion of South America and particularly by the uplifting of the Andean System (Mantilla-Meluk and Baker 2006). Eight species of Anoura are presently recognized including: A. aequatoris, A. cadenai, A. caudifer, A. cultrata, A. fistulata, A. geoffroyi, A. latidens, and A. luismanueli. All species of Anoura are thought to be present in Colombia where the Andean System reaches its maximum geologic complexity (van der Hammen 1974).
