Unnamed subgenus. Although often placed in the subgenus Chilonycteris (e.g., Smith, 1972; Simmons and Conway, 2001), recent molecular studies suggest that it and psilotis comprise an as yet unnamed subgenus (Lewis-Oritt et al., 2001; Van Den Bussche and Weyandt, 2003; Pavan and Marroig, 2016). May be a species complex; see Zárate-Martínez et al. (2018). Does not include psilotis; see Dávalos (2006) and Pavan and Marroig (2016). We attribute authorship of the specific epithet to Wagner, not Natterer, following Carter and Dolan (1978). See also de la Torre and Medellín (2010), and Zárate-Martínez et al. (2018).

Includes Chilonycteris and Phyllodia (see Smith, 1972). Three subgenera (Pteronotus, Chilonycteris, and Phyllodia) are recognized, and a fourth that includes personatus and psilotis, species formerly included in Chilonycteris, requires a name; see Pavan and Marroig (2016). Keys to this genus were presented by Herd (1983) and by Rodríguez-Durán and Kunz (1992).
