Effects of forest fragmentation on the vertical stratification of neotropical bats [PDF]
Vertical stratification is a key component of the biological complexity of rainforests. Understanding community- and species-level responses to disturbance across forest strata is paramount for evidence-based conservation and management.

Inter- and intraspecific variation in the Artibeus species complex demonstrates size and shape partitioning among species [PDF]
Neotropical leaf-nosed bats (family Phyllostomidae) are one of the most diverse mammalian families and Artibeus spp. is one of the most speciose phyllostomid genera.

Segregação de recursos por diferentes espécies de morcegos (Mammalia: Chiroptera) na Reserva Biológica de Sooretama [PDF]
Em ecologia, uma das ideias mais importantes é o princípio da exclusão competitiva, ou Lei de Gause, que afirma que duas espécies competindo pelos mesmos recursos não podem coexistir de modo estável se todos os outros fatores ecológicos forem constantes.

Asimetría cráneo-mandibular de Artibeus lituratus (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae) en Colombia
Analyzing asymmetry in species associated with disturbed environments enables the evaluation of the morphological plasticity of generalistic species and the different evolutionary responses of sexes or populations to environmental or genetic stress. This report is a study of the cranial and mandibular asymmetry of Colombian Artibeus lituratus.

Consumo diurno de fruto por Artibeus lituratus en Coclé, República de Panamá
Se presenta la primera observación de consumo diurno de fruto en el murciélago frugívoro Artibeus lituratus en un bosque húmedo tropical de la República de Panamá. El individuo fue observado alimentándose de día en un árbol de guayaba (Myrtaceae). Se trata del primer caso reportado de este inusual comportamiento en Centroamérica.

A morphologically atypical great fruit-eating bat Artibeus lituratus from Paraguay
Morphological abnormalities and their underlying causes are well documented and understood in humans and some domesticated animals but are less often reported within wild populations. This is likely because many abnormalities lead to the early death of individuals and typically are only encountered within large samples of specimens.
