Submyotodon
''Submyotodon'' is a genus of vespertilionid bats, published as a new taxon in 2003 to describe a Miocene fossil species. Extant species and subspecies previously included in ''Myotis'' were later transferred to this genus. Species in this genus are referred to as broad-muzzled bats or broad-muzzled myotises. Taxonomy and etymology ''Submyotodon'' was described as a new genus of bat in 2003, based on fossil specimens found near Eichstätt, Germany. The type species is '' Submyotodon petersbuchensis''. The genus name ''Submyotodon'' is from the Latin prefix ('under' or 'close to'), + the Greek roots (, 'mouse') + (, , 'ear') + (, , 'tooth'). This refers to the fact that its molars are similar to those of the mouse-eared bats, e.g. "myotodont" molars. Myotodont molars are characterized by a postcristid (enamel ridge linking the hypoconid and hypoconulid) that links to the entoconid (inner posterior cusp of a molar).

Submyotodon Latirostris
The Taiwan broad-muzzled bat or Taiwan broad-muzzled myotis (''Submyotodon latirostris'') is a species of vesper bat found in Taiwan. Taxonomy It was described as a new species in 1932 by Japanese arachnologist Kyukichi Kishida. The holotype had been collected in Taiwan. Kishida placed it in the genus ''Myotis'' with a binomial of ''M. latirostris''. In subsequent publications, it was considered by various authors to be a subspecies of the whiskered bat (''M. mystacinus'') or the wall-roosting mouse-eared bat (''M. muricola''). However, its lineage is basal to all other ''Myotis'' species. It is still within the Myotinae subfamily, though its morphological and genetic differences justified placing it in a separate genus. Description It is a small species of bat, with a forearm length of . Its skull is overall smooth and lacking crests, and the occipital bone The occipital bone () is a neurocranium, cranial dermal bone and the main bone of the occiput (back and lower part ...

Myotis
The mouse-eared bats or myotises are a diverse and widespread genus (''Myotis'') of bats within the family Vespertilionidae. The noun "''myotis''" itself is a New Latin construction, from the Greek "''muós'' (meaning "mouse") and "''oûs''" (meaning ear), literally translating to "mouse-eared". Relationships ''Myotis'' has historically been included in the subfamily Vespertilioninae, but was classified in its own subfamily, Myotinae, by Nancy Simmons in 1998. In her 2005 classification in ''Mammal Species of the World'', Simmons listed the genera ''Cistugo'' and ''Lasionycteris'' in the Myotinae in addition to ''Myotis'' itself.Simmons, 2005, p. 499 However, molecular data indicate that ''Cistugo'' is distantly related to all other Vespertilionidae, so it was reclassified into its own family, the Cistugidae, and that ''Lasionycteris'' belongs in the Vespertilioninae.Roehrs et al., 2010 The genus '' Submyotodon'' has since been added to the subfamily, making it and ''Myotis'' it ...

Vespertilionid
Vespertilionidae is a family of microbats, of the order Chiroptera, flying, insect-eating mammals variously described as the common, vesper, or simple nosed bats. The vespertilionid family is the most diverse and widely distributed of bat families, specialised in many forms to occupy a range of habitats and ecological circumstances, and it is frequently observed or the subject of research. The facial features of the species are often simple, as they mainly rely on vocally emitted echolocation. The tails of the species are enclosed by the lower flight membranes between the legs. Over 300 species are distributed all over the world, on every continent except Antarctica. It owes its name to the genus ''Vespertilio'', which takes its name from a word for bat, ', derived from the Latin term ' meaning 'evening'; they are termed "evening bats" and were once referred to as "evening birds". (The term "evening bat" also often refers more specifically to one of the species, '' Nycticeius humer ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
