Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 686-699, September 2021., 2021 Network analyses of 6528 bats associated with 6077 ectoparasitic bat flies revealed extremely high host specificity, with organisation of the network in small subsets reflecting a highly modular network structure. Module structure appeared not to be host‐phylogeny driven, instead modules were often composed of bat species known to share roosting ...

Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 2, Page 454-469, April 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Vertical stratification (VS) is a widespread phenomenon in plant and animal communities in forests and a key factor for structuring their species richness and biodiversity, particularly in tropical forests. The organisms composing forest communities adjust and shape the complex three‐dimensional structure of their environment and inhabit a ...

A systematic revision of the bats (Chiroptera) of Honduras: an updated checklist with corroboration of historical specimens and new records [PDF]
Zoosystematics and Evolution, 2020 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.

Where are the bats? An environmental complementarity analysis in a megadiverse country
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 26, Issue 11, Page 1510-1522, Novemeber 2020., 2020 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.

Foraging shifts and visual preadaptation in ecologically diverse bats
Molecular Ecology, Volume 29, Issue 10, Page 1839-1859, May 2020., 2020 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
