The western sucker-footed bat (''Myzopoda schliemanni'') is a [Chiroptera.html" ;"title="[Chiroptera">bat endemic to Madagascar. Little is known about its habits, but they are assumed to be similar to those of the Madagascar sucker-footed bat.Garbutt, Nick; ''Mammals of Madagascar''; Yale University Press, New Haven, 2007: pg 73 The western sucker-footed bat is long. It has large ears, and prominent suckers on its feet and thumbs. It has buff-brown upper parts, and mouse-gray underparts.
