It was recently described as a new species in 2011. Taxonomy and etymologyMyotis diminutus was described as a new species in 2011 by Moratelli and Wilson. The holotype was collected in February 1979 {{cvt|47|km|mi}} south of Santo Domingo, Ecuador. The species name "diminutus" is Latin for "diminutive". Moratelli and Wilson selected this name because M. diminutus was the smallest species of mouse-eared bat yet described in South America.[2] DescriptionSuperficially, M. diminutus is similar to the black myotis in appearance. Very few individuals have ever been documented. Based on the measurements of one individual, a subadult male, individuals weigh approximately {{cvt|3.5|g|oz}} and have a forearm length of {{cvt|33.3|mm|in}}. Its ears are short, at {{cvt|11|mm|in}} in length. It has silky, cinnamon-brown fur. Its skull lacks a sagittal crest.[2] RangeThe species was first documented in Ecuador. However, a review of museum specimens identified a second individual that had been collected in the Nariño Department of Colombia in 1959.[3] With only two confirmed localities, its elevation range of occurrence is {{cvt|150-225|m|ft}} above sea level.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite journal|last1=Solari| first1= S.| year= 2017| title= Myotis diminutus| journal= The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species| volume= 2017| page= e.T88151417A88151431| doi= 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2017-2.RLTS.T88151417A88151431.en}} {{Myotinae nav}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q2357286}}2. ^1 {{cite journal|doi=10.1016/j.mambio.2010.10.003|title=A new species of Myotis Kaup, 1829 (Chiroptera, Vespertilionidae) from Ecuador|journal=Mammalian Biology|volume=76|issue=5|pages=608–614|year=2011|last1=Moratelli|first1=Ricardo|last2=Wilson|first2=Don E.}} 3. ^{{cite journal|doi=10.2988/0006-324X-127.4.533|title=A second record of Myotis diminutus (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae): Its bearing on the taxonomy of the species and discrimination from M.
