Bats is a general name for representatives of the order of chiropterous animals, with the exception of fruit bats. For a long time, bats were considered as a suborder, until, according to karyological and molecular genetic data, it was shown that this group is a combined group: representatives of the Rhinolophoidea superfamily are more related to fruit bats than other bats. Nevertheless, the name continues to be used in the Russian-language scientific and popular science literature.

In fact, this name includes representatives of 6 families belonging to Rhinolophoidea, and 14 families now united in the suborder Yangochiroptera. Also, bats are called representatives of the fossil families of the order, some of which, apparently, are older than the division of the living groups, including the fruit bat.
