The marked dextro-dominance causes accentuated morphophysiological variations in the female reproductive organs of the bat Molossus molossus.

Tissue & Cell, 2023
Molossus molossus is an insectivorous molossid bat that is important in the control of nocturnal insects. It is the nominal and the most representative species of the family. However, there are few studies about its reproduction.

The process of testicular regression also impacts the physiology of the epididymis of the bat Molossus molossus, although with a delay in epididymal response due to sperm storage.

Acta Histochemica, 2021
Responsible for post-testicular maturation, concentration, protection and sperm storage, the epididymis is an organ that can be easily subdivided into three segments: caput, corpus and cauda.

Detection and Phylogenetic Analysis of Emerging Human‐Associated Gemykibivirus‐2 in Molossus molossus Bat From Brazil

Journal of Medical Virology
We detected an emerging human‐associated gemykibivirus‐2 (HuGkV‐2) in rectal swab sample from Molossus molossus bat from Brazil. Phylogenetic analysis further revealed well‐supported relationships between our sequence and those associated with human ...

Ultrastructural characteristics of spermatogenesis in Pallas's mastiff bat, Molossus molossus (Chiroptera: Molossidae)

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2012
Despite the large number of species, their wide distribution, and unique reproductive characteristics, Neotropical bats have been poorly studied, and important aspects of the reproduction of these animals have not been elucidated.

Reproductive Activity and Diet of an Urban Population of Pallas' Free-Tailed Bats Molossus molossus (Molossidae)

Acta Chiropterologica
Urban areas offer favorable environments for the occupation by colonies of numerous insectivorous bats, indicating a good supply of resources for their support. Studies have shown that reproductive patterns of Neotropical bats can be seasonal in response

Effects of climate change on the distribution of Molossus molossus and the potential risk of Orthohantavirus transmission in the Neotropical region.

Acta Tropica
Molossus molossus is a widely distributed neotropical bat species in the Americas, often found in urban areas. This study evaluated climate change effects on the potential geographic distribution of M.

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.
