Nota de aplicación
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.
