We report the first record of Furipterus horrens (Cuvier, 1828) in the state of Paran&aacute;, southern Brazil. A male specimen&nbsp;was captured using a harp trap in the entrance of a cave in the Parque Municipal Gruta do Bacaetava. The morphometric&nbsp;data and morphological characters of the specimen are within the known range documented for this species. This&nbsp;new record fills a gap in the known distribution of F. horrens and provides potentially valuable information that can beused to plan conservation measures.
