Resumo
The state of Oaxaca, in southeastern Mexico,is one of the regions with the greatest species richness in the country,comparable even with that of some Central American countries. Over the courseof a study on the southeastern portion of the state of Oaxaca, we recorded thepresence of three new species for the state: two New World leaf-nosed bats (Phylloderma stenops and Micronycteris schmidtorum) and onevesper bat (Myotis albescens). Thelocalities of these registers represent the northeastern extreme of thegeographic distribution of the former two species. The three species includedin the present work bring the number of terrestrial mammalian wildlife speciesin Oaxaca to 209, and the number of bat species to 93.(AU)
