镰叶蝠Phyllops falcatus（Gray，1839）是一种中等大小的短面蝙蝠，通常被称为古巴白肩蝠或古巴食无花果蝙蝠。这是唯一现存的Phyllops物种，其特征是在每个肩膀上和耳朵后附着点后面有明显的白色毛发，以及透明的dacrylopatagium minus。镰形蝠（P. falcatus）是一种栖息在树叶上的蝙蝠，分布在古巴群岛、开曼群岛和伊斯帕尼奥拉岛，喜欢在低海拔（低于680米）的森林栖息地。该物种在动物学收藏中很罕见，以前曾被列入低风险近危类别。
Abstract Phyllops falcatus (Gray, 1839), a medium-sized short-faced bat, is a phyllostomid commonly called the Cuban white-shouldered bat or the Cuban fig-eating bat. This single extant species of Phyllops is characterized by distinct patches of white hair on each shoulder and just behind the posterior insertion of the ears, and a transparent dactylopatagium minus. P. falcatus is a foliage-roosting bat distributed across the Cuban Archipelago, Cayman Islands, and the Island of Hispaniola where it prefers forested habitats at low elevations (below 680 m). This species is rare in zoological collections and has previously been listed in the lower risk–near threatened category.
