Notes on the Mammals of the Bahamas with Special Reference to the Bats

Abstract
To the student of insular faunas, the West Indies are of considerable interest since they represent, on the whole, a characteristic derivative of the Neotropical region, depauperate, yet presenting some peculiar features. Of this larger Antillean assemblage, the Bahamian fauna constitutes, in some respects, a particularly interesting fragment as a result of its peripheral and northern position, it being the only part of the West Indies which extends into the temperate zone.
