Amorphochilus schnablii (smoky bat)

Wikipedia Abstract

The smoky bat (Amorphochilus schnablii) is a species of bat in the family Furipteridae. It is monotypic within the genus Amorphochilus. Its natural habitat is rocky shores. It is threatened by habitat loss. This bat is also called the thumbless bat because its thumb is partly enclosed in its wing; this common name is also applied to another species, Furipterus horrens.
