Cryptic diversity and range extension in the big-eyed bat genus Chiroderma (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae) [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2020 Since the last systematic review of Chiroderma (big-eyed bats) more than two decades ago, we report on biodiversity surveys that expand the distribution and species diversity of this Neotropical genus.

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

Severe limitations of the FEve metric of functional evenness and some alternative metrics. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 The index of functional evenness FEve has critical conceptual and practical drawbacks. We recommend not using FEve metric in studies of functional variability. Instead, we suggest three alternative metrics that combine variability in species distances in trait space with abundance in various ways.

The structure of tropical bat-plant interaction networks during an extreme El Niño-Southern Oscillation event. [PDF]
Mol Ecol, 2022 Abstract Interaction network structure reflects the ecological mechanisms acting within biological communities, which are affected by environmental conditions. In tropical forests, higher precipitation usually increases fruit production, which may lead frugivores to increase specialization, resulting in more modular and less nested animal–plant ...
