Previously, the article stated that all bats could not synesize vit-c due to GULO loss, citing {{cite journal | author = Martinez del Rio C | year = 1997 | title = Can Passerines Synthesize Vitamin C? | journal = The Auk | volume= 114 | issue = 3 | pages = 513–516 | url=http://elibrary.unm.edu/sora/Auk/v114n03/p0513-p0516.pdf}}, this paper mentioned it in passing. A newer paper doi: 10.1093/molbev/msq286 states that most, but not all, bats have lost GULO. CS Miller ( talk) 19:59, 12 February 2012 (UTC) reply
