ABSTRACT
In the present study, we recorded the first and second capture of Lasiurus blossevillii for the state of Acre, in the municipality of Xapuri, border with Bolivia. They were two adults, a female and a male, caught in PAECM in August 2014 and December 2015, by using mist nets installed at ground level. The morphometric characteristics are consistent with the literature, ensuring the precise taxonomic identification of specimens, increasing to five the number of records of this species to the legal Amazon.
