Archaeopteropus is an extinct bat genus represented by A. transiens from the early Oligocene deposits of Monteviale in northern Italy. Its relationships have been disputed. A reassessment of the Monteviale fauna left its family placement uncertain, noting that the surviving cast did not preserve enough diagnostic detail for a satisfactory revision.^[1]
