Taxidermy of a Bat -M. MEDIUS- in reliquary
AN451
Because it is interesting to discover on both sides, this long-fingered bat is presented in a beveled glass reliquary. Miniopterus medius is a bat found in Indonesia, Thailand, and Malaysia. From sea level to over 2500 meters above sea level. This one has been colected in April 2023 in Eastern Java.As its English name suggests (Intermediate Bent-winged Bat), its wings have a rather cut-out shape, very graphic. Like most bats, it is active at night and catches insects in flight, thanks to its echo-location sonar. The ears are quite small, but the "tail between its hind legs is rather long. The perfect Bat.
