The Ecuadorian sac-winged bat (Balantiopteryx infusca) is a species of sac-winged bat in the family Emballonuridae. It is found in Colombia and Ecuador.[2] According to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, the population trend is decreasing for this species, due to habitat destruction through deforestation.[1] In 2013, Bat Conservation International listed this species as one of the 35 species on its worldwide priority list for conservation.[3]
