Baeodon is a genus of vesper bats. It consists of two species:
- Allen's yellow bat, Baeodon alleni
- Slender yellow bat, Baeodon gracilis
Baeodon was described as a new genus in 1906 by American zoologist Gerrit Smith Miller Jr.. The type species for the genus is Allen's yellow bat, which was previously in the genus Rhogeessa.[1] Later studies found that the slender yellow bat was the sister taxon of Allen's yellow bat.[2][3]
