Do Energetic Challenges Mimicking Missed Foraging Encourage Torpor Use by a Neotropical Bat?
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.We experimentally tested whether Merriam's long‐tongued bat (Glossophaga mutica), a Neotropical nectarivorous species, uses heterothermy in response to reduced energy intake. We found that energetically challenged bats maintained subcutaneous temperatures significantly closer to roost temperature during the daytime inactive period.
