Fossil Bat (Microchiroptera, Mammalia) from Arrisdrift, Namibia
Bats are extremely rare in the Orange River deposits, mainly on account of the fluvial nature of the deposits. Nevertheless the order is represented at Arrisdrift by a new species of rhinolophid which is peculiar in having the vestigial premolar offset to the lingual side, opposite to the usual position in other rhinolophids.
