Cynocephalidae (family) (Dermoptera (order), Mammalia (class), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Family containing two genera and two species of flying lemurs, which are nocturnal, arboreal gliding mammals found in South-east Asia. They are about the size of a domestic cat and characterized by lateral skin membranes extending from the forelimbs to the tail, by means of which they make long gliding leaps from tree to tree. Although flying lemurs share some characteristics with certain bats (flying foxes), they are most closely related to the primates.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 此科包含兩個屬與兩種飛狐猴，夜行動物，樹棲，於林間滑翔，生存於東南亞，體型約相當於家貓。其特徵為身體兩側、由前肢延伸至尾巴的皮膜，牠們藉由皮膜於林間長距離滑翔跳躍。雖然飛狐猴與某幾種蝙蝠（飛狐）具有相同特徵，但牠們的血緣與靈長類最為接近。 |
