Simplifying a wing: diversity and functional consequences of digital joint reduction in bat wings

Bat wings, like other mammalian forelimbs, contain many joints within the digits. These joints collectively affect dynamic three‐dimensional (3D) wing shape, thereby affecting the amount of aerodynamic force a wing can generate. Bats are a speciose group, and show substantial variation in the number...
