The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Horseshoe bats are closely related to the Old World leaf-nosed bats, family Hipposideridae, which have sometimes been included in Rhinolophidae.
- The horseshoe bats are divided into six subgenera and many species groups.
- The most recent common ancestor of all horseshoe bats lived 34–40 million years ago, though it is unclear where the geographic roots of the family are, and attempts to determine its biogeography have been indecisive.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Horseshoe bat article was read about 29,000 times in a year.
