Habitat These bats are found in Honduras, Nicaragua,
Costa Rica, and western Panama at elevations from sea level to 700 meters.
As for where specifically they live, they cut certain veins in plant leaves so that they flop down. The bats then hang upside-down in the leaf.

microbats. However, it feeds at least in part on fruit.
It does not have any predators, and its only fear is humans.
