Anatomical and Histological Characterization of the Intestine of Artibeus lituratus. [PDF]

Anat Histol Embryol
ABSTRACT The order Chiroptera is highly diverse and is the second richest among mammals. Approximately 181 species are known in Brazil, with varied feeding habits that make them essential for ecological functions such as seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Despite the importance of their ecosystem services, the

Morphophysiology and Hormonal Control of the Mammary Gland of the Bat Artibeus lituratus During Gestation and Lactation: Emphasis on Estradiol and Progesterone. [PDF]

J Morphol
The mammary gland of NON females of Artibeus lituratus was composed of few ducts interspersed within a rich stroma, and covered by adipose tissue. The branching of the mammary gland in AP females are triggered by stimuli from an increase in serum estradiol that, through ERα activation, stimulates the proliferation of the ducts, and an increase in serum

Host Abundance Predicts Interactive Roles in Neotropical Bat-Bat Fly Interactions. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We analyzed the influence of bat functional traits on their importance as hosts in bat–bat fly networks. Our results indicate that bat abundance is the main driver for host importance in Neotropical bat–bat fly interactions. ABSTRACT Host functional traits are known to shape host‐parasite interactions across multiple taxa.

Detection of adenovirus, papillomavirus and parvovirus in Brazilian bats of the species Artibeus lituratus and Sturnira lilium. [PDF]

Arch Virol, 2019
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Bats play a significant role in maintaining their ecosystems through pollination, dispersal of seeds, and control of insect populations, but they are also known to host many microorganisms and have been described as natural reservoirs for viruses with zoonotic potential.

Coronavirus Detection in Bats Captured on the Deforestation Arc of Mato Grosso, Brazil. [PDF]

Zoonoses Public Health
ABSTRACT Coronaviruses (CoV) are RNA viruses associated with enteric and respiratory diseases and known for their emergence potential in humans and other mammals. CoVs originate from zoonotic transmission, in which bats are natural reservoirs. Previous studies suggest that CoV diversity is positively correlated with bat diversity, whereas anthropogenic

Artibeus lituratus

, 2020
Artibeus lituratus (Olfers, 1818) Fig. 19 Taxonomy. The distinction between A. lituratus and A. fimbriatus is discussed above. A. lituratus can be externally distinguished from A. planirostris and A. obscurus by its larger size; well-marked facial stripes (poorly marked to absent on the other two); lack of ventral frosting (present on the other ...
