First record of the Peale’s free-tailed bat Nyctinomops aurispinosus (Peale, 1848) (Chiroptera, Molossidae) from Chile revealed by acoustic surveys, with notes on ecology and distribution

Mammalia (Paris), 2022
The bat fauna from the extreme north of Chile is poorly known, principally due to a lack of dedicated surveys. To better assess the diversity of bats there, we conducted acoustic surveys at Arica city and three coastal valleys (Azapa, Lluta and Camarones)

Molecular Systematics ofNyctinomops(Chiroptera: Molossidae)

Western North American Naturalist, 2015
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The genus Nyctinomops comprises 4 species of bats in the free-tailed family Molossidae: Nyctinomops macrotis, Nyctinomops femorosaccus, Nyctinomops aurispinosus, and Nyctinomops laticaudatus. The objective of this study was to use mitochondrial sequence data to test hypotheses of relationship within ...

The oldest African molossid bat cranium (Chiroptera: Molossidae) [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2002
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) A fossil cranium from Rusinga Island, Kenya, is described as a new species of free-tailed bat, Tadarida rusingae (Chiroptera, Molossidae). The sediments where the skull was found are dated by Potassium–Argon assay at about 17.5–18.0 million years before present (early Miocene).

Diet and resource partitioning in Patagonian bats (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae and Molossidae)

Mammal Research, 2021
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Partitioning of food resources is one of the main drivers of bat community organization. We investigated the trophic structure of the Patagonian bat ensemble which comprises eight insectivorous species classified in the families Vespertilionidae and Molossidae.

Complex reproductive and migratory patterns in the European free-tailed bat (Tadarida teniotis) (Molossidae)

Mammalia (Paris)
Reproductive strategies vary widely among bats, even within the same species. The molossid Tadarida teniotis has an intermediate latitudinal distribution between tropical bats and those of temperate zones.

The mite Dentocarpus silvai (Acari, chirodiscidae) as a parasite of the bat Molossus molossus (Chiroptera, molossidae) in southeastern Brazil

International Journal of Acarology
Factors that influence the parasite load in a host bat include sex, age, reproductive condition, health, and body condition. Among the ectoparasitic mites found on bats, species from the family Chirodiscidae are commonly observed on molossid bats.

Toward a Molecular Phylogeny for the Molossidae (Chiroptera) of the Afro-Malagasy Region [PDF]

open access: possibleActa Chiropterologica, 2011
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) We present phylogenetic information based on nuclear Rag2 and mitochondrial cytochrome b sequence data for six genera of Molossidae (Chaerephon, Mops, Mormopterus, Otomops, Sauromys, Tadarida) and 18 species, primarily from Africa and the Malagasy region (Madagascar and neighbouring islands), and ...
