Miniopterus majori is a species of vesper bat in the Vespertilionidae family. It is found only in Madagascar. It is similar to that of M. schreibersi of Africa , differing by having a short forearm slightly longer digits and a narrow box shaped skull. The pelage is often a greyish brown colour, and the tragus is kidney shaped and is a prominant feature.
