A general term for insectivorous bats in the family Furipteridae (chiroptera), which includes two genera and two species: the long-eared bat Furipterus horrens and the forest long-eared bat Amorphochilus Schnabli . These bats are sometimes classified as either the Siberian long-eared bat or the Vespertilionidae, but are more closely related to the family Amorphochilus schnabli. They are so named because the claws on the first toe of the forelimb are vestigial. They are endemic to the New World, and are found from Costa Rica to Brazil, and in Trinidad.
