An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The type species, N. adhicaster, was first described by A. Weithofer in 1887 on the basis of fragmentary fossils from the Eocene deposits of the Quercy Phosphorites Formation.[2] Weithofer did not designate a type specimen,[3] simply describing a lower jaw. This material was later described in more detail by Pierre Revilliod in 1920, offering the holotype the number QW6627. He described additional material, and classified it within three species: N. adhicaster, N. gerzei, N. marandati, N. planifrons and N. grandis.

  • The type species, N. adhicaster, was first described by A. Weithofer in 1887 on the basis of fragmentary fossils from the Eocene deposits of the Quercy Phosphorites Formation.[2] Weithofer did not designate a type specimen,[3] simply describing a lower jaw. This material was later described in more detail by Pierre Revilliod in 1920, offering the holotype the number QW6627. He described additional material, and classified it within three species: N. adhicaster, N. gerzei, N. marandati, N. planifrons and N. grandis. More recently, E. Maitre has described the fossils in more detail.[4][5][6] N. grandis and N. planifrons have been considered indestinguishable from N. adhicaster, but N. gerzei and N. marandati may be distinct enough to warrant their own species. Several indeterminate bat fossils in France may belong to Necromantis.[7][8] Currently, only jaws and skulls are known, with a single humerus known as a postcranial remain.
