Driving factors for the evolution of species-specific echolocation call design in new world free-tailed bats (molossidae). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Phylogeny, ecology, and sensorial constraints are thought to be the most important factors influencing echolocation call design in bats. The Molossidae is a diverse bat family with a majority of species restricted to tropical and subtropical regions ...

Functional differences in echolocation call design in an adaptive radiation of bats

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
All organisms have specialized systems to sense their environment. Most bat species use echolocation for navigation and foraging, but which and how ecological factors shaped echolocation call diversity remains unclear for the most diverse clades ...
