Species in the genus may be referred to as "pipistrelles" or "pipistrelle bats", though these terms are also used for species now placed in other genera, such as the western pipistrelle (Parastrellus hesperus) and eastern pipistrelle (Perimyotis subflavus) of North America.
The tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus) or American perimyotis [2] is a species of microbat native to eastern North America.
