The large long-fingered bat is a species of chiropteran mammals. It has long narrow wings that allow it to fly quickly and hunt insects in the night air of Africa.
The species is distinguished from other bats by particularly long wing fingers. These bats are important for nature because they eat a large number of insects and help maintain balance in ecosystems.
