A neotype is designated, housed in the Museum national d{\textquoteright}Histoire naturelle (MNHN), in Paris. Relationships between the so-called M. daubentonii, M. albatus and M. whitleyi are discussed; it is suggested that M. albatus might be a mere subspecies of M. daubentonii. New localities are given - or even resurrected - for this rare and poorly known genus: i.e. Gabon and Uganda (M. whitleyi), Central African Republic (M. daubentonii albatus).}, keywords = {Africa, Central African Republic, Chiroptera, C{\^o}te d{\textquoteright}Ivoire, ecology, Faunistik, Flederm{\"a}use, Gabon, Ivory Coast, Mammalia, Molossidae, morphology, Myopterus albatus, Myopterus daubentonii, Myopterus whitleyi, Senegal, systematics, taxonomy, Uganda}, author = {Adam, F. and Aellen, V. and Tranier, M.} }
