Frugivory of bats in a threatened semiarid region in southeastern Brazil
Fruit bats have a high seed dispersal capacity contributing to the establishment of numerous plant species. In this work we examined the frugivorous diet of phyllostomid bats in the Cavernas do Peruaçu National Park, north of Minas Gerais, Brazil, an ...

The article reveals that the temporal and spatial axes are important drivers of the floral‐visitor niche of anthophilous bats in a Neotropical savanna, defining the structure of their interaction networks with plants. These findings may aid in the management of the endangered Cerrado bat Lonchophylla dekeyseri. Abstract Flower‐vising bats are important

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.

Global patterns of functional trait variation along aridity gradients in bats
Abstract Aim Our understanding of the biological strategies employed by species to cope with challenges posed by aridity is still limited. Despite being sensitive to water loss, bats successfully inhabit a wide range of arid lands. We here investigated how functional traits of bat assemblages vary along the global aridity gradient to identify traits ...

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.
