Seasonal Foraging Behavior of the Frugivorous Bat Carollia perspicillata
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) We studied the foraging behavior of the frugivorous bat Carollia perspicillata (Phyllostomidae)during two dry seasonsand two wet seasons in northwesternCosta Rica using radio-telemetry and capture-recapture techniques.

AbstractStudies on functional performance are important to understand the processes responsible for the evolution of diversity. Morphological trait variation within species influences the energetic cost of locomotion and impacts life history traits, with ecological and evolutionary consequences.

Disparity of turbinal bones in placental mammals
Abstract Turbinals are key bony elements of the mammalian nasal cavity, involved in heat and moisture conservation as well as olfaction. While turbinals are well known in some groups, their diversity is poorly understood at the scale of placental mammals, which span 21 orders.

Presencia de estro post-parto en el murciélago frugivoro carollia perspicillata
The occurrence and possibility of post-partum oestrum of the species Carollia perspicillata was studied in one group of 25 bats in cautivity. The study was carried out, during the inmediate post-partum by the obtention of daily vaginal smears along 30 ...

This study evaluates whether diversification in Malagasy and African Miniopterus is associated with divergence in linear wing morphology. Principal component and morphospace analyses indicate that wing morphology is highly conserved across species, with most variation reflecting differences in size rather than shape.

Question the Mark: A Review and Assessment of Bat Marking Practices
We reviewed a decade of research on bats and conducted a broader systematic review to assess the nature of bat marking practices and the effects and efficacy of marks. Effects of marks on bats, mark details and marking procedures are rarely reported and further research on the effects of marks on bats and more thorough reporting are needed.

A general framework for modeling pathogen transmission in co‐roosting host communities
Abstract Cross‐species transmission of pathogens can be facilitated by frequent contact among wildlife. Cross‐species transmission is often driven by phylogenetic similarity between host species, but the role this plays when multiple host species co‐roost is unknown.
