Bickham's little yellow bat Bickham's little yellow bat ("Rhogeessa bickhami") is a species of vesper bat found in Central America. It was described as a new species in 2012. The holotype had been collected by L. W. Robbins in May 1981, north of Huixtla, Mexico. The eponym for the species name ""bickhami"" is John W. Bickham, who has researched other bat species of this genus, as well as other mammals. It is considered "medium sized" for its genus, with a head to tail length of . It is a diploid organism with two sets of each chromosome (2n=34). It has

a dental formula of for a total of 30 teeth. It is insectivorous, catching and consuming insects while flying. It is found in Central America where its range includes Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Nicaragua. As of 2017, it is evaluated as a least-concern species by the IUCN. It meets the criteria for this classification because it has a relatively large geographic range; it is not locally uncommon; and it can tolerate some human disturbance of its habitat.

said "It neither had a catchy melody nor a meaningful chorus. In terms of instrumental wealth and sound, there is an improvement, but they are only detachments that don't come together to make a 'songs'." Onur Baştürk from the same newspaper, pointed out Gülşen's claim of "making high-quality hit songs" and wrote that the track listing begins with disco songs and later turns into arabesque, indicating the message in the album was "choose what you like, or what is best suitable for you." Radioman Michael Kuyucu congratulated Gülşen on writing and composing the songs and asked for an album similar

to "Of... Of..." (2004) in terms of style. He also wrote: "Gülşen and her team still survived the pitfalls of the disastrous pop music world. This is a big plus for her." Best FM's radiowoman Mine Ayman wrote in her review for Söz Müzik that the album did not make her as excited as she wished and said that choosing "Kardan Adam" as the album's lead single would have increased the effectiveness of its promotion. Writing for Hayat Müzik, Yavuz Hakan Tok gave the album a mixed review and wrote: "For a moment it takes the form of arabesque-alaturka, and

Beni Durdursan mı?

the other moment it turns to dance and party songs. [...] This is an album where you will enjoy the high infrastructure and technical perfection that are all created by Ozan Çolakoğlu and memorize you candidate 'hit' songs and play them for a long time." He also criticized Gülşen for not experimenting with new songs and compositions, unlike Sezen Aksu whom Gülşen had claimed that she was inspired by. Writing for Dilimin Ayarı Yok, Cem Özsancak praised the singer's collaboration with Çolakoğlu, liked the album and gave it a positive review: "As a sequel to "Önsöz", Gülşen gives us an

Beni Durdursan mı?

album that is full of stories told through the songs." In addition, various music critics stated in their subsequent reviews that "Beni Durdursan mı?" (especially "Yatcaz Kalkcaz Ordayım") greatly influenced the singer's next studio album, Bangır Bangır, which was released in 2015.
