Go big or go fish: morphological specializations in carnivorous bats [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2016
Specialized carnivory is relatively uncommon across mammals, and bats constitute one of the few groups in which this diet has evolved multiple times. While size and morphological adaptations for carnivory have been identified in other taxa, it is unclear what phenotypic traits characterize the relatively recent evolution of carnivory in bats.
