Resumo

Describimos un evento de captura incidental de un individuo de Rhipidomys cf. macrurusen una red de niebla durante muestreo de quirópteros realizadoen la Unidad de Conservación del Bosque Nacional Silvânia, municipio de Silvânia, Goiás, Brasil. La captura de animales que no sean avesy murciélagos en redes de niebla es excepcional, por lo que nuestro registro es uno de los pocos reportados en la literaturaque involucra a un roedor. Suponemosque el individuo se enredó mientras buscaba alimento en la vegetación que rodeaba la red.
