DNA-barcoding confirmed our morphological identification, and supported a paraphyletic composition of the cis-Andean populations. Our records exemplify the little knowledge on the ecogeographic distribution of this species and provide further evidence to consider this as a widespread but rare species. © Martínez-Cerón et al.application/pdfenghttps://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/id/publication/issn/1809-127XDNAbarcodeEcogeographicdistributionPale-facedbatpublishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAcceso abierto2021-03-23Martínez-Cerón J.M.Patiño-Castillo E.Carvalho-Madrigal S.Díaz-Nieto J.F.10.15560/15.1.37
