Eptesicus is a genus of bats, commonly called house bats or serotine bats, in the family Vespertilionidae.[1] The genus name is likely derived from the Greek words ptetikos 'able to fly' or petomai 'house flier', although this is not certain.[2]

2023 proposed revision
A 2023 study noted divisions within Eptesicus when considering physical characteristics, genetics, echolocation characteristics, and divergence timing, with the authors concluding that Eptesicus should be split into three genera. They described a new genus, Neoeptesicus, and elevated the subgenus Cnephaeus to genus rank.[4]
The Old World Eptesicus species were moved to Cnephaeus:
- Cnephaeus anatolicus
- Cnephaeus bottae
- Cnephaeus floweri
- Cnephaeus gobiensis
- Cnephaeus hottentotus
- Cnephaeus isabellinus
- Cnephaeus japonensis
- Cnephaeus kobayashii
- Cnephaeus nilssonii
- Cnephaeus ognevi
- Cnephaeus pachyomus
- Cnephaeus pachyotis
- Cnephaeus platyops
- Cnephaeus serotinus
- Cnephaeus tatei
The Neotropical species were placed in Neoptesicus:
- Neoeptesicus andinus
- Neoeptesicus brasiliensis
- Neoeptesicus chiriquinus
- Neoeptesicus diminutus
- Neoeptesicus furinalis
- Neoeptesicus innoxius
- Neoeptesicus langeri
- Neoeptesicus orinocensis
- Neoeptesicus taddeii
- Neoeptesicus ulapesensis
These revisions left only two species in Eptesicus:
- Eptesicus fuscus
- Eptesicus guadeloupensis
