Vesper Bat (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Evening bats or, perhaps more correctly, Vesper bats (family Vespertilionidae) are the largest and best-known family of bats. They belong to the suborder Microchiroptera (microbats). There are over three hundred species distributed all over the world, on every continent except Antarctica. Sometimes the family is called "common bats." It owes its name to the latin word vesper, meaning "evening."
