The second largest order of mammals, Chiroptera comprises more than one thousand species of bats. Because of their mobility, bats are often the only native mammals on isolated oceanic islands, where more than half of all bat species live. This book focuses on the evolution, ecology, and conservation of bats living in the world's island ecosystems.
