The family Natalidae, or funnel-eared bats, are found from Mexico to Brazil and the Caribbean islands.[1] The family has three genera, Chilonatalus, Natalus and Nyctiellus. They are slender bats with unusually long tails and, as their name suggests, funnel-shaped ears. They are small, at only {{convert|3.5|to|5.5|cm|abbr=on}} in length, with brown, grey, or reddish fur. Like many other bats, they are insectivorous, and roost in caves.
