- "A flying mammal with a keen sense of smell. Nasty when woken during daylight."
- — The Folio Bruti on the Mortis Bat[src]
The Mortis Bat was a venomous species of bat.[1]
Description[]
It was known for being particularly hostile when woken during the daytime, and its keen sense of smell. It tended to be found in darker areas of the wizarding world, such as Hogwarts Castle or the corners of Knockturn Alley. Mortis bats were particularly vulnerable to the Knockback Jinx, Red Sparks, and the Verdimillious Charm.[1]
Etymology[]
Mortis is the genitive case of the Latin mors, meaning death. Thus, Mortis Bat could be taken as "Bat of Death".
