An Australian Miocene Brachipposideros (Mammalia, Chiroptera) related to Miocene representatives from FranceBernard Sigé, Suzanne J. Hand and Michael ArcherKeywords: Australia; bats; Chiroptera; MioceneAbstract A new middle Miocene hipposiderid bat is described from a limestone deposit on Riversleigh Station in north-western Queensland. Hipposideros (Brachipposideros) nooraleebus n. sp. is the first record of this subgenus from anywhere in the world outside of France. The palaeoecological setting of the fossil bats appears to have been a relatively quiet, sunny lime-enriched tropical pool that contained tortoises, crocodiles and fish. It is possible that the bats were washed into the pool from an adjacent cave. Article infos |
