Vinson's slit-faced bat (Nycteris vinsoni) is a species of slit-faced bat known only from two specimens.
Both specimens were smoked out of a baobab tree in a national park in southern Mozambique.
N. vinsoni was once considered a synonym of Nycteris macrotis, but it became recognized as a separate species in 2004.
Some, however, still consider N. vinsoni to be a subspecies of N. macrotis.
Others believe the correct name for the species should be N. aethiopica.
