Resumo

Cynomops planirostris has a discrete distribution in the northern region of Argentina, mainly recorded in the Yungas Forest, with a few localities from the Dry and Humid Chaco, Delta and Islands of the Paraná River, and Fields and Weed lands ecoregions. Here we present a new locality for the country. The specimen was obtained through an occasional collection, which represents the second record for Misiones province and the first for the Paranaense Forest of Argentina, extending its distribution approximately 230 km to the northeast of the country. This record evidences our lack of knowledge of the bat fauna and highlights the need to include alternative sampling methods to detect these species.
