The little pied bat is a small bat with a white V-shaped marking on a black or grey body. It feeds on insects in dry, open areas of inland Australia.
Its back is black or grey, with a white V-shaped marking between the shoulders. The profile gives a body mass of 4–8 g.
It roosts in caves, rock crevices, abandoned mines, tree hollows, and buildings. Its food includes moths and other flying insects, and it may forage near water.
