摘要
在昆士兰州西北部里弗斯利的中新世石灰岩洞穴沉积物中收集的头骨材料中描述了旧大陆叶鼻蝙蝠的一个新属和新种。Riversleigha williamsi gen. et sp. 11 .是在Bitesantennary Site沉积物中发现的9种海马科动物之一。它与其他海马体的系统发育关系尚不清楚,但它可能代表了这个旧大陆热带家族的一个早期分支。这是一种相对较大的马体动物,至少它的一些特征表明,它能够吃掉装甲良好的甲虫和其他昆虫猎物。
Riversleigha williamsi gen. et sp. nov., a large Miocene hipposiderid (microchiroptera) from Riversleigh, Queensland
A new genus and species of Old World leaf-nosed bats is described from skull material collected from a Miocene limestone cave deposit at Riversleigh in northwestern Queensland. Riversleigha williamsi gen. et sp. nov. is one of nine hipposiderid species identified from the Bitesantennary Site deposit. Its phylogenetic relationships to other hipposiderids remain unclear but it probably represents an early branch of this Old World tropical family. It is a relatively large hipposiderid and at least some of its features suggest it was capable of consuming well-armoured beetles among other insect prey.
