Chiroptera

Biology

An order of flying mammals comprising the bats. Their membranous wings are supported by very elongated forelimbs and digits and stretch along the sides of the body to the hindlimbs and tail. Whenever bats rest they allow their body temperature to fall, hibernating in winter when food is scarce. Most bats are nocturnal; their ears are enlarged and specialized for echolocation, which they use to hunt prey and avoid obstacles. Bats feed variously on insects, fruit, nectar, or blood.

Geology and Earth Sciences

Order comprising the only true flying mammals, possessing features parallel to those of birds, e.g. active metabolism and economy of weight. Insectivores possibly ancestral to the bats are known from the Palaeocene. The first undoubted bats, however, are preserved in Middle Eocene deposits in both Europe and N. America. Differentiation of the modern lineages was far advanced by the Eocene–Oligocene transition.
