The evolution of bat vestibular systems in the face of potential antagonistic selection pressures for flight and echolocation.
The vestibular system maintains the body's sense of balance and, therefore, was probably subject to strong selection during evolutionary transitions in locomotion. Among mammals, bats possess unique traits that place unusual demands on their vestibular systems. First, bats are capable of powere...
