Long-legged bat
(重定向自Macrophyllum)
The long-legged bat (Macrophyllum macrophyllum) is a bat species from South and Central America. It is monotypic in its genus.
It hunts close over the water surfaces of lakes and slowly flowing streams, where it seizes insects right above or directly off the surface in a manner similar to Noctilio leporinus and Myotis daubentoni. This is an interesting example of convergent evolution, which may imply just how valuable a habitat the water surface is to insectivorous bats.
