Cadena's tailless bat (Anoura cadenai ) is a species of bat native to Colombia. In 2006 it was described as a separate species from the tailed tailless bat species complex.
Its fur is a blackish-brown color. Its forearm length is 34–37 mm (1.3–1.5 in).
The ecology of this species is poorly understood due to its recent description. Specimens were recorded at relatively high altitudes (between 800 and 1600m), in habitats of the Andean forest with mature trees covered by epiphytes. This species is sympatric with two other species from the genus Anoura : A. caudifer and A. cultrata.
