faune ailée

français vers anglais Autre Zoologie
This is a study on how wind farms effect bird migration. I thought that perhaps "avifauna" would cover it, but Websters says this specifically applies to bird. This exerpt from my document specifically states that they're talking about bats, too.

Ces travaux préliminaires sur les migrations aviaires ... s’inscrivent dans un effort collectif ... pour améliorer les connaissances actuelles des migrations de la **faune ailée**, incluant les chauves-souris et les oiseaux...

Any ideas? Thanks!

Une attention toute particulière mérite d’être donnée à la protection de l’avifaune et des chiroptères (chauve-souris).
Une analyse fine de la compatibilité des projets éoliens avec la richesse et la sensibilité des oiseaux et chauve-souris
est un volet clef des études préalables. Les éléments cartographiés ici apportent des compléments plus qualitatifs aux
