The slender broad-nosed bat (Platyrrhinus angustirostris) is a species of bat in the family Phyllostomidae. As a phyllostomid bat, it is characterized by a narrow uropatagium which is fringed with hair; a white dorsal stripe; large inner upper incisors convergent at the tips; and three upper and three lower molars. It is found in eastern Colombia and Ecuador, north-eastern Peru, and Venezuela. It is closely related to Platyrrhinus incarum and Platyrrhinus fusciventris.{{cite journal|last1=Velazco|first1=Paúl M.|last2=Gardner|first2=Alfred L.|last3=Patterson|first3=Bruce D.|title=Systematics of the Platyrrhinus helleri species complex (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae), with descriptions of two new species|journal=Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society|volume=159|issue=3|year=2010|pages=785–812|issn=0024-4082|doi=10.1111/j.1096-3642.2009.00610.x|doi-access=free}}
