Cynomops is a genus of Central and South American dog-faced bats in the family Molossidae.[1] It has sometimes been considered a subgenus of Molossops. It contains the following species:
- Cinnamon dog-faced bat (C. abrasus)
- Freeman’s dog-faced bat (C. freemani)
- Greenhall's dog-faced bat (C. greenhalli)
- Cynomops mastivus (C. mastivus)
- Mexican dog-faced bat (C. mexicanus)
- Miller’s dog-faced bat (C. milleri)
- Para dog-faced bat (C. paranus)
- Southern dog-faced bat (C. planirostris)
- Waorani dog-faced bat (C. tonkigui)

gollark: Differentiate it, substitute x=3 into that, set dy/dx to 0, solve.
gollark: Oh, actually just > 0 since it's a denominator, yes.
gollark: The $9-x^2$ bit has to have a value >= 0. So solve that and work out for which values it is >= 0.
gollark: You want the bit in the square root to be greater than or equal to 0, so just figure out what values of x give you that.
gollark: I see.
