A Tiberian bat was a blind, winged mammal that, much like the vampire bat native to Earth, bit its prey on the neck to drink its blood. As a respectful insult, Midshipman 1st Class Peter Preston told Admiral Kirk that if he couldn't see that the USS Enterprise had the best engine room in all of Starfleet, then he was "as blind as a Tiberian bat." (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
