X53B #4.1
This is a real taxidermy Black Bearded Tomb Bat, framed nicely in a beautiful black frame. He looks like he is fixing to fly of of the branch into the moonlit sky. This helps show off his unique shape and would look great in any collection! In all, this display is approximately 15" x 12" x 2"
Species: taphozous melanopogon
The black-bearded tomb bat is a species of sac-winged bat. It is found in South and South East Asia.
In the mating season males produce a thick substance into the beard that is believed to be a pheromone to attract mates.
The coat of black-bearded tomb bats is quite variable dependent on its particular environment. It ranges from grayish to multi-brown or red variations. Hairs are typically white tipped, turning increasingly more red or brown towards the base. Fur is present on the tail (uropatagium) membrane. No throat sac is present, but a series of pores that open into the throat region is present where the sac would be located. Males have a black beard, which is believed to be seasonal. In the mating season, males produce a thick substance into the beard that is believed to be a form of pheromone to attract mate. The thick tail tapers to a slightly bulbous tip. The wings attach just above the ankles.
