图书简介
Presenting some of the most remarkable discoveries and research involving living and fossil bats, this book explores their evolutionary history from a range of perspectives. Topics covered include paleontology and relationships of bats, the evolution and enhancement of echolocation, feeding ecology, population genetic structure, functional morphology and the fossil history.
