Novel Betaherpesviruses in Neotropical Bats on the Caribbean Island of St. Kitts: First Report from Antillean Tree Bats (Ardops nichollsi) and Evidence for Cross-Species Transmission [PDF]
To date, limited information is available on herpesviruses in bats from the Caribbean region. We report here high detection rates (24.24%, n = 66) of herpesviruses in oral samples from apparently healthy bats (Ardops nichollsi (75%, 9/12) and Molossus ...

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the dung beetle Catharsius molossus (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) [PDF]
Dung beetles (Scarabaeinae, Scarabaeidae, Scarabaeoidea, Coleoptera) contribute to ecosystem processes by fragmenting dung, aerating soil, and facilitating nutrient cycling. Among them, Catharsius molossus is a large-bodied tunneler species known for its

Distress Calls of a Fast-Flying Bat (Molossus molossus) Provoke Inspection Flights but Not Cooperative Mobbing. [PDF]
Many birds and mammals produce distress calls when captured. Bats often approach speakers playing conspecific distress calls, which has led to the hypothesis that bat distress calls promote cooperative mobbing.
