recife broad-nosed bat
Platyrrhinus recifinus
Recife broad-nosed bat — a small bat that lives only in the tropical forests of eastern Brazil. It is active at night and feeds on fruits.
This species is distinguished by its very wide nose, which helps it precisely locate food. It is important for the forest because it disperses plant seeds and supports the growth of new trees.
At night, it finds fruits by smell and picks them with its teeth.
