A systematic revision of the bats (Chiroptera) of Honduras: an updated checklist with corroboration of historical specimens and new records [PDF]
During the last century, survey efforts for mammals in Honduras have been few and most distributional and conservation assessments of bats have been based on historical records. Taxonomy of many records has changed.

Design matters : an evaluation of the impact of small man-made forest clearings on tropical bats using a before-after-control-impact design [PDF]
In recent years, large clearings (>1000 ha) accounted for gradually smaller amounts of total annual deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon, whereas the proportion of small clearings (

Where are the bats? An environmental complementarity analysis in a megadiverse country
Abstract Aim Field surveys are necessary to overcome Wallacean shortfalls. The task is even more important when human pressure on tropical—megadiverse—ecosystems is considered. However, due to financial constraints, spatial and temporal prioritization is required.

Infomap Bioregions: Interactive mapping of biogeographical regions from species distributions [PDF]
Biogeographical regions (bioregions) reveal how different sets of species are spatially grouped and therefore are important units for conservation, historical biogeography, ecology and evolution. Several methods have been developed to identify bioregions

Foraging shifts and visual preadaptation in ecologically diverse bats
Abstract Changes in behaviour may initiate shifts to new adaptive zones, with physical adaptations for novel environments evolving later. While new mutations are commonly considered engines of adaptive change, sensory evolution enabling access to new resources might also arise from standing genetic diversity, and even gene loss. We examine the relative
