TABLE 18 Summary of measurements a of Natalus primus

		Females					Males
a Descriptive statistics of measurements for each sex. N 5 sample size; SD 5 standard deviation. Weight is given in g; all other measurements are given in mm. See text for description of measurement methods. Measurements significantly different between sexes (P # 0.05) are followed by an asterisk (*).
