Biotropica, Volume 56, Issue 4, July 2024.The role of archeological zones in biological conservation has been highlighted because they restrict land‐use change, size, and maintenance of upstanding vegetation. We found 23 species from six families and seven guilds, representing 53% of all bat species known from the Yucatan state, including two endangered species for Mexico.

Nutritional content of bat-consumed fruits in a forest fragment in Southern Brazil
Brazilian Journal of BiologyThe State Park Mata dos Godoy has 42 identified bat species, among which 21 are frugivorous and belong to the Phyllostomidae family. Current study investigated the concentrations of carbohydrate, lipid and protein in fruits consumed by Artibeus lituratus,

Consumo de plantas pioneras por murciélagos frugívoros en una localidad de la orinoquía colombiana [PDF]
, 2015 English: Feeding behavior plays a major role as a resource partitioning strategy within assemblages of fruit bats. Although Colombia is one of the most diverse countries in terms of bat diversity, the influence of phenology of consumed resources on bat ...

Infomap Bioregions: Interactive mapping of biogeographical regions from species distributions [PDF]
, 2016 Biogeographical regions (bioregions) reveal how different sets of species are spatially grouped and therefore are important units for conservation, historical biogeography, ecology and evolution. Several methods have been developed to identify bioregions

Seasonal variation and host sex affect bat–bat fly interaction networks in the Amazonian savannahs
Integrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 400-416, May 2024.Our data provide information on the interactions between bats and bat flies in one of the largest portions of Brazilian Amazonian savannah. Here, we demonstrate that environmental variations and host sex can influence the structure of interaction networks formed between bats and their ectoparasitic flies. Abstract Bats are the second‐most diverse group

Semina: Ciências Biológicas e da Saúde, 2012 Artibeus lituratus (Olfers, 1818) and Platyrrhinus lineatus (Geoffroy, 1810) are phyllostomid bats that often coexist in the same local and consume the same feed. Therefore, the aim of this study was to obtain data about feeding habits of the two species,

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, Page 868-885, May 2024.Abstract Quantification of phenological patterns (e.g. migration, hibernation or reproduction) should involve statistical assessments of non‐uniform temporal patterns. Circular statistics (e.g. Rayleigh test or Hermans‐Rasson test) provide useful approaches for doing so based on the number of individuals that exhibit particular activities during a ...

Auditory opportunity and visual constraint enabled the evolution of echolocation in bats [PDF]
, 2018 Substantial evidence now supports the hypothesis that the common ancestor of bats was nocturnal and capable of both powered flight and laryngeal echolocation.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.We quantified the fur color of live eastern red bats (Lasiurus borealis) and demonstrated that they are sexually dichromatic; males had redder, more saturated, and lighter pelages than females. Additionally, juveniles were darker than adults. In an exploratory post‐hoc analysis, we showed that body mass (i.e., an index of body condition in bats ...
