"Overall, gliders appear to be evolving relatively lengthened hindlimb bones while bats
are evolving more gracile hindlimb bones. Considering these results, we reject our
prediction that flyer and glider hindlimbs overlap in their adaptive optima. This finding
may point to the fact that modern gliders are completely distinct evolutionarily and
potentially even morphologically from the gliding ancestors of bats. These results may
highlight the pitfalls of modeling modern gliders as proxies for ancestral ones instead of
invalidating our hypothesis that bats evolved from ancestral gliders."
