Eastern bent-wing bat

It is found in South Asia, Far-east Asia, the east Caucasus Mountains and also in Southeast Asian regions.

They exhibit long and narrow wings, high wingspans and low wing loadings, which enable quick and long flights.

Fur is dense and soft, long above and short below.

The ears are small and the cheeks are hairless below the eyes.

Zhang Jiang Lu et al. 2018 reported that echolocation frequencies were very similar among Eastern bent-wing bat colonies and variation in echolocation calls were likely due to variations in background noise instead of genetic drift.
