The relationships among Leishmania infantum and phyllostomid bats assessed by histopathological and molecular assays [PDF]
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and WildlifeBats have been reported as reservoir host of Leishmania spp. worldwide, mostly by molecular detection. However, it is still unclear whether bats act as reservoirs of Leishmania infantum to sandflies vectors.

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 7, Page 1442-1455, July 2023., 2023 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
