Bats have been found to evolve into bigger sizes in exactly the same way in separate locations, in a very rare example of ...

Advances in morphological and molecular methods continue to uncover new information on the origin and evolution of bats. Presenting some of the most remarkable discoveries and research involving ...

"Our results, combined with previous research on bat wing development and aerodynamics, support a hypothetical evolutionary pathway wherein a glider-like forelimb morphology preceded the evolution ...

These were found in areas involved in immune response, viral defence, and both lipid and vitamin metabolism, suggesting they have played a key role in the evolution of the bat's specialised diet.

Instead of catching moths in flight, bats can also pick them off leaves and branches while the moths are resting. Such changes in the ways moths and bats try to get the better of each other is an ...

But to date, all the evidence points to bats being the important reservoir. Previous research has suggested that pangolins might have played a role in the evolution of Sars-CoV-2, but the latest ...

Biologists have found that evolution has provided moths with a variety of ways to evade bat sonar. Some have noise-canceling ...

The Batmobile is probably the most iconic vehicle in cinema. From the converted Ford Lincoln Futura driven by Adam West to the beast that was Christian Bale ’s Tumbler, each Batmobile has made ...
