		Cheiromeles: Naked Bats, or Hairless Bats - English
		This genus is unique among bats in several respects: the essentially naked appearance, the great development of the throat sacs, and the wing pouches.

		Also of note is the capture of three size morphs of Rhinolophus philippinensis which because of their differing echolocation frequencies, may represent distinct species, which to date have not been described.
		Rare species such as the Sulawesi Naked Bat (Cheiromeles parvideus) an endemic species about which very little is known has been caught from the Kakenauwe area and only the fourth known specimen of Boneia bidens was captured from the Labundo area.
		A major point about the bat fauna is that 15 of the species including 4 endemics are forest interior specialists and if the forest was degraded or removed entirely, would be lost.

		Sarawak's National Parks and Wildlife Section of the Forest Department had asked me to conduct a bat survey of the park.
		They were especially interested in determining the number of free-tailed bats (Chaerephon plicata) emerging from the park's caves each night, as well as assessing the status of the highly unusual and vulnerable naked bats (Cheiromeles* torquatus).
		Cheiromeles torquatus is one of the world's largest insect-eating bats, weighing up to 160 grams (almost six ounces), with a forearm of 180 mm (about seven inches), a size more typical of a flying fox.

		In one genus (Cheiromeles) the hair is so short that the animal appears to be naked.
		Curved, spoon-shaped bristles are present on the outer toes of each foot; these are used by the bat in cleaning and grooming its fur.
		Molossid bats roost in caves, tunnels, buildings, hollow trees, foliage (at least Molossus), the decayed wood of logs (reported for Molossops), the crevices of rock cliffs, and holes in the earth (reported for Cheiromeles).

		Typical projects included gathering data on the social behaviour of macaque monkeys, radio-tracking civets and catching bats to ring and fit with radio transmitters.
		What excitement when the first roosting sites of two woolly-backed forest bats Kerivoula papillosa were located and a rare Sulawesi Naked bat Cheiromeles parvidens was caught.
		Also witnessed was the first capture of a brown, yellow-speckled tube nose bat, a new species to Buton island.

	Caves Task Force Report, Appendix E
		Visitation to this room was restricted, and the collecting of earwigs from the floor was prohibited.
		Although the intent was highly admirable, subsequent research on the biology of this species has shown that it is obligately associated with the naked bat, Cheiromeles torquatus Horsfield, and that earwigs found on the floor in the ''earwig sanctuary'' had become separated from their hosts and therefore were doomed.
		This first "earwig sanctuary'' no matter how well maintained and policed could not have had any potential whatsoever for the survival of the species for which it was created.
