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

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 ...

Frugivorous bats in the Colombian Caribbean region are reservoirs of the rabies virus
Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2019 Background Bats are an important ecological group within ecosystems. The rabies virus is a Lyssavirus, and haematophagous bats are the principal reservoir; however, the virus has also been detected in non-haematophagous bats.

Biotropica, Volume 56, Issue 3, May 2024.Forest regeneration in tropical bracken‐dominated deforested areas is mainly hindered by dispersal limitation. We found differences in species composition of seed‐dispersing birds and bats between the forest and bracken‐dominated areas, which could be one of the main causes of dispersal limitation in forest regeneration in tropical bracken‐dominated ...

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 ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 145-159, January 2024.Our study demonstrates how best practice forestry and logging can maintain healthy vertebrate populations over the long term. Forestry concessions that adopt techniques of low‐harvest RIL and are managed for their long‐term timber provision through extension of regeneration times beyond 10 years after harvest, are likely to benefit from the ecosystem ...
