Habitat:
This species is strongly associated with moist habitats and forest or cloud forest (Handley 1976). This species is strongly frugivorous; it possibly feeds on pollen and nectar (Eisenberg 1989; Gardner 1977). It is frequently recorded from mist-nets. Two young are born annually (J. Molinari, pers. comm.). This species co-occurs with S. bidens and S. erythromos (Gardner 2008).
Range:
This species occurs in Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela and Peru (Simmons 2005). Records from Bolivia and Argentina are erroneous (see Pacheco and Patterson 1992). It occurs in high montane areas above 1,200 m (S. Solari pers. comm.), although typically above 2,000 m.
Conservation:
The species occurs in protected areas, including a few national reserves in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. Andean forests are a sensible habitat and a close monitoring should be kept in place.
