Lonchophylla dekeyseri
De Keyzer's nectar bat is a small bat that feeds on flower nectar. It lives in tropical regions of South America and helps plants with pollination.
De Keijzer's Spear-bearer is distinguished by a very long tongue and special tooth structure from other bats. It is important for nature as a pollinator of tropical plants.
