Bats
Lot of species here but the reasonably condensed list goes:
Fruit bats (what you probably picture when you think of vampires)
Sac-winged bats (little bit lighter, have pheromone sacks on their wings and short tails.)
Bumblebee bat (has the nose that looks like a pig. Small enough that it almost has to be vermin and should maybe be omitted.)
Horseshoe bats (they have a little doodlebop on their noses shaped like a horseshoe or leaf.)
Slit faced bats (they've got a split down the middle of their face and their tails end in a T. Also have a nose-leaf)
Ghost bat (has a membrane that makes it look like a ghost and is otherwise shaped like a vampire bat but eats insects. No tail.)
Vesper bats (common bat.)
Pallid bats (vesper bats with big eyes and ears, probably omit.)
Free tail bats (Might want to just do Western mastiff bat because it's so big, for a bat.)
Funnel Ear Bats
Sucker Foot bats
Fisherman bats (they've got food pouches in their face- also called bulldog bats.)
Mystacinidae (These spend a lot of time walking instead of flying and can tuck away their wings. Only one species still around.)
Moustache bats (these are the commercial guano producers because they have such huge colonies.)
leaf nose bats. Probably just make one creature for these but really common
