Icaronycteris is an extinct genus of microchiropteran (echolocating) bat that lived in the early Eocene, approximately , making it the earliest bat genus known from complete skeletons, and the earliest known bat from North America.
In August 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) became aware of nitrosamine impurities in certain samples of rifampin. [62] The FDA and manufacturers are investigating the origin of these impurities in rifampin, and the agency is developing testing methods for regulators and industry to detect the 1-methyl-4-nitrosopiperazine (MNP ...
Onychonycteris finneyi was the strongest evidence so far in the debate on whether bats developed echolocation before or after they evolved the ability to fly. O. finneyi had well-developed wings, and could clearly fly, but lacked the enlarged cochlea of all extant echolocating bats, closely resembling the old world fruit bats which do not echolocate. [1]
BAT is the only FDA-approved product available for treating botulism in adults, and for botulism in infants caused by botulinum toxins other than types A and B. BAT has been used to treat a case of type F infant botulism and, on a case-by-case basis, may be used for future cases of non-type A and non-type B infant botulism. [4]
More recently, E. Maitre has described the fossils in more detail. [6] [7] [8] N. grandis and N. planifrons have been considered indistinguishable from N. adichaster, but N. gerzei and N. marandati may be distinct enough to retain their respective statuses as distinct species. Several indeterminate bat fossils in France may belong to Necromantis.
[1] [2] The family Palaeochiropterygidae was also merged into Archaeonycteridae by Kurten and Anderson, but modern authorities specializing in bat fossils maintain the distinction between the two. [3] [4] They existed from the Ypresian to the Lutetian ages of the Middle Eocene epoch (55.8 to 40.4 million years ago). [1]
