Ecomorphological implications of the microstructures on the tongue of the fawn roundleaf bat, Hipposideros cervinus (Chiroptera: Hipposideridae)
The morphology of the lingual papillae on the tongue of the fawn round-leaf bat (Hipposideros cervinus) was studied by scanning electron microscopy to determine its functional role in feeding ecology. Both mechanical and gustatory papillae were detected on the lingual surface. Large pronged papillae...
