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
