Thirteen species of Neotropical bats of the genus Micronycteris are currently recognized and are allocated to four subgenera Leuconycteris, Micronycteris, Schizonycteris, and Xenonectes. Despite that, the presence of polyphyletic clades in molecular phylogenies suggests that its diversity is underestimated. Additionally, the incorrect identification of some genetic sequences, the incorrect assignation of available valid names, and restricted geographic sampling have biased the identification of independently evolutionary lineages within Micronycteris. In this study, several unknown genealogical lineages in the genus are identified and an updated phylogenetic hypothesis is proposed using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA fragments. The phylogenetic analyses congruently showed all individuals in four well-supported subgenera, but M. schmidtorum was revealed as the sister taxon of M. brosseti in the subgenus Leuconycteris. Twenty-seven different genealogical lineages were identified. These included eight confirmed species: M. brosseti, M. buriri, M. giovanniae, M. matses, M. schmidtorum, M. simmonsae, M. tresamici, and M. yatesi. Nineteen either allopatric or parapatric candidate species were also confirmed, two within the M. hirsuta complex, nine within the M. megalotis complex, seven within the M. minuta complex, and one corresponding to “M. sp.”. These results revealed an extensive undescribed diversity within each subgenus of Micronycteris. Nevertheless, the evolutionary processes associated with the specific radiations are poorly understood. This is just the beginning of the assessment of the taxonomy and systematics of Micronycteris, which requires additional integrative taxonomical approaches for its advance.

任务的开始：系统发育假说和细支蝙蝠（鳞翅目，鳞甲科）蝙蝠的进化谱系鉴定

目前已经认识到密纹夜蛾属的新热带蝙蝠的13种，并被分配给了四类隐尾，科，细隐蝠科，裂殖酵母和异种科。尽管如此，分子系统发育中多系进化枝的存在表明其多样性被低估了。此外，某些遗传序列的不正确识别，可用有效名称的不正确分配以及受限制的地理采样，已使微乳草内独立进化谱系的识别产生偏差。在这项研究中，鉴定了该属中几个未知的家系谱系，并使用线粒体和核DNA片段提出了更新的系统发育假说。系统发育分析一致地显示了四个支持良好的亚属中的所有个体，但M。schmidtorum被揭示为Leuconycteris属中的Brosseti的姊妹分类群。确定了二十七种不同的宗谱。这些物种包括八个已确证的物种：布氏梭状芽胞杆菌，布氏梭状芽胞杆菌，乔凡尼氏菌，松散芽孢杆菌，schmidtorum枝，西蒙氏芽孢杆菌，tresamici枝和耶茨氏菌。还确认了十九种异源或异源候选物种，hirsuta复合体中的两种，巨型支原体复合体中的九种，minuta复合体中的七种，以及对应于“ M. sp。”。这些结果揭示了在微乳菌的每个亚属中广泛的未描述的多样性。然而，人们对与特定辐射有关的进化过程了解甚少。这仅仅是对Micronycteris分类学和系统学进行评估的开始，
