Habitat:
This species can be found in thorn scrub and dry, pine-oak forest, often near water (Reid 1997). It roosts in caves, hollow trees, culverts, wells and buildings. It has been caught in mist nets set over rivers and creeks in arid regions and was recorded in Chiapas with the three other Glossophaga species found in Mexico (Webster and Jones 1985, Reid 1997). Habitat loss has been between zero and one percent over the last ten years (Cuaron and de Grammont pers. comm.)
Range:
This species is known from Chiapas to Michoacan and Tlaxcala (Mexico; Simmons 2005). It occurs from lowlands to 1,500 m asl, but is usually found below 300 m asl and close to sea level (Reid 1997, Ceballos and Oliva 2005).
Conservation:
This species occurs in at least five protected areas (Arroyo-Cabrales pers. comm.).
