We discovered in the brainstem of infrared-sensitive vampire bats, Desmodus rotundus, a specific nucleus not known in other species of bats. Because it corresponded in location and histological features to the infrared nucleus of infrared-sensitive snakes, we suggest the probability of its being part of the infrared processing system of vampire bats.
我们在对红外线敏感的吸血蝙蝠(圆叶蝠)的脑干中发现了一个在其他蝙蝠物种中未知的特定核团。由于它在位置和组织学特征上与对红外线敏感的蛇的红外线核相对应,我们认为它有可能是吸血蝙蝠红外线处理系统的一部分。
