You should note where the eastern red bat lives User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 17:37, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Added some detail in the taxonomy section, but I don't think I should place too much detail on the eastern red bat. Enwebb (talk) 03:15, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"on the tips" made me think the wingtips User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 17:37, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Clarified phrasing Enwebb (talk) 03:15, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You should check out the range map because it highlights only the Argentinian side of Tierra del Fuego User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 17:37, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like a pretty close match to what the IUCN has? Enwebb (talk) 03:15, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't trust the IUCN for being so specific with less than iconic species. According to this study, "its presence in that portion of the country [Tierra del Fuego] is based solely on the comments made by Dabbene (1902)...probably this species was accidentally introduced by ship," and the southernmost confirmed occurrence is Los Glaciares National Park. I would edit the map to either include all of Tierra del Fuego or remove all the islands (the former is probably safer if you can't find a source more specific about its Chilean range) User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 14:32, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dunkleosteus77, it's really tedious for me to do range maps (I don't have any sort of software that would help). I think this map is fine the way it is as it's based on a RS, but if you have serious reservations, I will probably just remove it. Enwebb (talk) 02:04, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

At the very least you should use this source in the article User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 13:21, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dunkleosteus77, added some detail. Enwebb (talk) 00:04, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why was it synonymized with the eastern bat if it lives on the exact opposite side of the Americas? Were other species also synonymized into the eastern red bat so that its range at one point stretched unbroken across the Americas? User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 17:37, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Added detail to the taxonomy section. Enwebb (talk) 03:15, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You should discuss the other synonyms in text User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 17:37, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Added. Enwebb (talk) 03:15, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking this review! I think I will have time to address these points later today or tomorrow. Enwebb (talk) 17:12, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
