520 | 8 | |a With more than 200 species distributed from California through Texas and across most of mainland Mexico, Central and South America, and islands in the Caribbean Sea, the Phyllostomidae bat family (American leaf-nosed bats) is one of the world's most diverse mammalian families. From an insectivorous ancestor, species living today, over about 30 million years, have evolved a hyper-diverse range of diets, from blood or small vertebrates, to consuming nectar, pollen, and fruit. Phyllostomid plant-visiting species are responsible for pollinating more than 500 species of neotropical shrubs, trees, vines, and epiphytes and they also disperse the seeds of at least another 500 plant species. This book presents an overview of the evolution of the many morphological, behavioural, physiological, and ecological adaptations in this family. | |
