Noteworthy Records of Bats from Nicaragua, authored by J. Knox Jones in the early 1970s, is a scientific publication that documents the diversity and distribution of bat species in Nicaragua. It details 40 bat species, including 14 first recorded in the country, and employs a systematic approach to catalog these species based on specimens collected primarily by field representatives of the Museum of Natural History at the University of Kansas. This work contributes significantly to the understanding of Central America's mammalian fauna and addresses gaps in the scientific literature regarding Nicaragua's biodiversity.
