Two species of Eumops Miller, 1906 are reported with voucher specimens from Guatemala: E. auripendulus (Shaw, 1800) and E. ferox (Gundlach, 1861). Eumops underwoodi Goodwin, 1940 has been known only by recordings. We collected dead specimens of E. ferox and E. underwoodi in a wind farm. Additionally, we provide acoustic data, and an allometric scaling hypothesis supports the identification of E. underwoodi, as it reflects the largest body size for sympatric free-tailed bats. We increase the list of bats in Guatemala to 104 species.
