Leaf-nosed bat rounded tips, range in body size from 4 cm to 13.5 cm and a wingspans of up to 90 cm or more. Like other bats, leaf-nosed bats are nocturnal foragers that use echolocation to locate food sources, though the food sources they are locating vary between species. Many bats in family Phyllostomidae appear to have limited reliance on echolocation, likely because frugivorous bats do not need to quickly identify flying insects like many other bats. Instead, species of leaf-nosed fruit bats appear to use scent to identify their preferred food sources. When they are not foraging, leaf-nosed bats roost in
Dwarf dog-faced bat is insectivorous and forages in groups. They generally eat small beetles, termites, winged ants, and moths. Some have been appeared to consume pollen, as well, which is common in insectivorous bats, but this is not confirmed, as the pollen could have been picked up while foraging for insects in flowers. This species is nocturnal, and uses echolocation to hunt for prey. They have been observed to roost near food sources to minimize foraging costs. This species of bat utilizes a polygynous mating system, with males mating with many females in a single breeding season. The breeding season varies region to
