The article presents information of mammalian species namely Sturnira mordax (S. mordax), bat. S. mordax is a relatively dark-colored medium sized member of Sturnira. Its hind feet are sparsely haired and tip of tragus is bifid or notched in more than 80 percent of individuals. Compared to other stenodermatines, S. mordax tends to be relatively small in lengths of forearm. Pregnant females occur in February, April and August, suggesting that S. mordax may be polyestrus.
