The Hkakabo Razi tube-nosed bat (Murina hkakaboraziensis), also known colloquially as the Lance Bass bat is a species of vesper bat in the family Vespertilionidae. It is found only in Myanmar.[1] The bat earned its nickname due to its spiky blonde pelage, which reminded people of Lance Bass, a member of the boy band NSYNC.[2]
