Areas generally lighter?[edit]

"These bats prefer to roost in areas generally lighter than other species of bats".

This could use some clarification.

Sac-winged bat → Emballonuridae – The name of the article's topic, the scope includes a variety of common names that refer to characters not found in other species of the family. cygnis insignis 05:34, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support. "Sheath-tailed bat" is more commonly used than "sac-winged bat" and Emballonuridae is even more commonly used than either of the vernacular names. Which isn't surprising since both of these vernacular names are used for some of the genera rather than the family as a whole. The name that is commonly used for the family as a whole is the scientific name, Emballonuridae. Plantdrew (talk) 01:40, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
