Hollow homes: Roost selection and role of roost morphometrics in the cavity-roosting Bamboo Bat (Genus Tylonycteris) from the Western Ghats, southern India
Bat species occupy diverse day-roosting habitats, ranging from rock-based to plant-based substrates. Depending on the properties of roosting substrates and the ability of bats to adapt to them, roosts can be stable or ephemeral over time. Bamboo bats (genus Tylonycteris) occupy bamboo cavities and possess adaptations such as a flattened skull, thickened thumb pads and modified soles of the feet,…
