Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Luis Manuel’s Tailless Bat occurs north and south of the Tachira Depression, allowing an ecological and geographical continuum between the Eastern Andes Range in Colombia and the Cordillera de Mérida. Because of its dependence on caves as roost, there is concern that some could collapse, changing local conditions and causing displacement of colonies.","source":"Phyllostomidae","sourceTaxonKey":196400265},{"key":463522396,"taxonKey":6075542,"type":"description","language":"eng","description":"Descriptive notes. Head-body 55 - 59 mm, tail 3 - 5 mm, ear 13 - 15 mm, hindfoot 10 - 12 mm, forearm 33: 6 - 36 - 9 mm; weight 7 - 5 10 g. Luis Manuel's Tailless Bat is the smallest species of Anoura. Fur is dense, silky, brown overall with ferruginous tinge, and brighter ventrally than dorsally. Dorsal hairs have whitish to grayish tinged basal band for almost two-thirds of their lengths. Wing and uropatagium membranes are brown to dark brown. Legs are moderately furred from base to knee. Uropatagium is moderately haired dorsally and thinly haired or almost naked ventrally, except densely furred middle area. Entire free edge of uropatagium has dense fringe of hairs. Skull is delicate, rostrum is comparatively short but slender, and zygomatic arches are usually complete. Dentition is delicate, and upper canines are weak. In occlusal view, upper premolars and molars form relatively straight and parallel lingual edges.","source":"Phyllostomidae","sourceTaxonKey":196400265},{"key":463522397,"taxonKey":6075542,"type":"discussion","language":"eng","description":"Some authors have discussed affinities of small species of Anoura as part of a generic taxon called Lonchoglossa.
