A proximodistal gradient in bone structure and mechanics in the wings of Seba's short-tailed bat, Carollia perspicillata. [PDF]

Anat Rec (Hoboken)
Abstract Bats possess the remarkable ability to fly, and with this, distinctive wing bone properties. We investigated the structural, mechanical, and compositional properties of the humerus, radius, metacarpals, and proximal and middle phalanges of Carollia perspicillata, an approximately 15 g fruit‐eating bat native to the Neotropics.

Coronavirus Detection in Bats Captured on the Deforestation Arc of Mato Grosso, Brazil. [PDF]

Zoonoses Public Health
ABSTRACT Coronaviruses (CoV) are RNA viruses associated with enteric and respiratory diseases and known for their emergence potential in humans and other mammals. CoVs originate from zoonotic transmission, in which bats are natural reservoirs. Previous studies suggest that CoV diversity is positively correlated with bat diversity, whereas anthropogenic

Highly Diverse Arenaviruses in Neotropical Bats, Brazil

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2022
We detected arenavirus RNA in 1.6% of 1,047 bats in Brazil that were sampled during 2007–2011. We identified Tacaribe virus in 2 Artibeus sp. bats and a new arenavirus species in Carollia perspicillata bats that we named Tietê mammarenavirus.

First record of predation on the bat Carollia perspicillata by the false coral snake Oxyrhopus petolarius in the Atlantic Rainforest [PDF]

Biotemas, 2012
Records of bats as prey of snakes are very few in the literature, but recent studies have shown that this predation doesn’t seem to be an unusual phenomenon.

Cranial and mandibular shape variation in the genus Carollia (Mammalia: Chiroptera) from Colombia: biogeographic patterns and morphological modularity [PDF]

PeerJ, 2015
Neotropical bats of the genus Carollia are widely studied due to their abundance, distribution and relevance for ecosystems. However, the ecomorphological boundaries of these species are poorly differentiated, and consequently correspondence between ...

Host Abundance Predicts Interactive Roles in Neotropical Bat-Bat Fly Interactions. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We analyzed the influence of bat functional traits on their importance as hosts in bat–bat fly networks. Our results indicate that bat abundance is the main driver for host importance in Neotropical bat–bat fly interactions. ABSTRACT Host functional traits are known to shape host‐parasite interactions across multiple taxa.

Morphological differentiation of Carollia brevicauda and C. perspicillata (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) from Peru and Ecuador

Revista Peruana de Biología, 2017
In the bat genus Carollia, C. brevicauda and C. perspicillata are the most abundant and widely distributed in South America; also, their distributional ranges are almost completely overlapped.
