The Proboscis Bat (Rhynchonycteris naso)

Also known as:

Long-nosed Proboscis Bat, Sharp-nosed Bat, Brazilian Long-nosed Bat, River Bat, and Murciélago Narizón.

These bats are located commonly in south and central America, noted to be found in southern Mexico, Belize, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, and Trinidad. Weighing in at a range of 3.8 to 3.9 grams (for reference, that's the weight of about 3 potato chips!) and a common wingspan of 23.9 mm, they are small but hardy insectivores which feed on mosquitoes and beetles. Each Proboscis Bat hunts with full independence at ~2 to 4 months, but live in the comfortable colony numbers of 5 to 10 other bats. These colonies tend to roost nearby to water sources, as these are the spawning grounds for their favored insects. Colonies of Proboscis Bats will notably form "conga lines", wherein the colony members will organize along tree bark in lines and sometimes in an oval shape.

Known predators of the Proboscis Bat include hawks, falcons, egrets, orb-weaver spiders, and tree boas.
