Lasiurus borealis
Red Bat
Two subspecies of Lasiurus borealis have been reported from Tamaulipas. One, L. b. borealis, is known only from Matamoros, whereas the other, L. b. teliotis, is widely distributed in the central and southern parts.
A young animal from Ciudad Victoria was captured inside a house. All specimens taken in the Sierra de Tamaulipas were caught in mist nets, in which Centurio senex, Pteronotus parnelli, and Mormoops megalophyla also were taken.
