英文摘要	The present study aimed to describe the cuticular microstructure of the guard hairsof bats present in the coastal desert of southern Peru. Samples of 45 bat specimens (16species, 13 genera and 4 families) from the department of Arequipa were examined, whichwere part of the scientific collection of mammals of the Natural History Museum of theNational University of San Agustin de Arequipa (MUSA). Hairs were obtained from theinter-scapular area, which were observed in a Scanning Electron Microscope to obtainmorphological and morphometric data. Five types of coronal cuticular patterns (appressed,divergent, divaricated, alternate and unequal hastate) and six configurations of the edgeof the scales (simple, cleft, emarginate, serrated, denticulate and dentate) were recorded,allowing the specimens to be differentiated down to the level of subfamily, while with thehelp of quantitative data (length and width of hair, Scale Index and Scale Width Index) itwas possible to reach a determination down to the species level. For the first time, adescription of the guard hair cuticle is documented for 15 species of bats that inhabit thecoastal desert of southern Peru. A taxonomic key is presented that will support thedevelopment of inventories and monitoring and conservation programmes of bats on thesouthern coasts of Peru.
