Pearson's horseshoe bat is a medium-sized bat with a horseshoe-shaped nose. It lives in mountain forests and caves of Asia, hunting insects at night using echolocation.
Pearson's horseshoe bat differs from related species by the unique shape of its noseleaf and its size. These bats are important for nature because they destroy a large number of harmful insects.
