murciélago desértico norteño / murciélago pálido


Explanation:
El "pallid bat" es Antrozous pallidus. Hay varias subespecies.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pallid_bat

La página de Wikipedia en español lo llama "murciélago pálido o desertícola".
http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antrozous_pallidus

Pero es igual de frecuente el nombre "murciélago desértico norteño" para esta especie, en fuentes que parecen bastante solventes.
