Belize Bat ID Needed

Hello,

I am new to this site and its community. I recently did a trip to Belize where I had an opportunity to visit Barton Creek Cave in the west central region of Belize. Along the boat ride I saw many different bats and managed to get several photos of different individuals. I am new bat ID in the area, and need help confirming the species for these. While I believe many of these are Thomas’s Sac-winged Bat (Balantiopteryx io), I am fairly certain I have a few other species in this mix. I used lightroom to brighten up some of these images.
