Speck's disc-winged bat is a very small bat from the tropical forests of Central and South America. It has special suckers on its feet that allow it to cling firmly to the smooth surface of leaves.
This bat differs from other species by special suckers on its feet, which allow it to rest on smooth leaves without using claws. It is important for the forest because it eats many insects and helps maintain balance in nature.
