 Great stripe-faced bats also have a distinguishing noseleaf which is highly developed and is longer than it is wide.Being nocturnal frugivores, great stripe-faced bats roost during the day and begin foraging for fruit to consume in the night.Great stripe-faced bats will rarely rest in the same roost on consecutive days and the females have been observed roosting in groups as large as 4 members while males roost on their own during the day.
