Strong matrilineal structure in common pipistrelle bats (Pipistrellus pipistrellus) is associated with variability in echolocation calls
International audience The ontogeny and heritability of echolocation, an important sense in echolocating bats, is still not completely understood. Intraspecific variation in echolocation calls can be high, although the importance of possible explanatory variables (e.g. age, sex, social groups) remai...
