Leptospira in Brazilian Bats (Mammalia: Chiroptera): A Systematic Review. [PDF]
We performed a systematic review on bats and Leptospira in Brazil. 8 studies were conducted between 1976 and 2024, with 66 bat taxa found positive, 1 Leptospira species and four serovars identified. Graphical abstract made with Biorender. ABSTRACT Bats are a megadiverse clade with plural ecological functions, including their role as bacterial, viral ...

Mitochondrial Genome Comparison and Phylogenetic Analysis of Four Species of Dung Beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae). [PDF]
Dung beetles have important ecological and economical values; however, the molecular research of the taxonomic group is very limited. We sequenced mitochondrial genomes of four Scarabaeinae species, with sizes from 14,977 to 18,425 bp, and identified novel gene rearrangements.

Comparative Genomics Provide Insights Into Karyotype Evolution in Vespertilionid Bats (Vespertilionidae, Chiroptera). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Studies elucidating the molecular basis and evolutionary consequences of karyotypic changes in mammals remain scarce. Here, we investigate chromosomal evolution by focusing on two contrasting lineages within the family Vespertilionidae (Chiroptera): the karyotypically variable tribe Pipistrellini and the highly conserved genus Myotis ...

The Value of Molecular vs. Morphometric and Acoustic Information for Species Identification Using Sympatric Molossid Bats. [PDF]
A fundamental condition for any work with free-ranging animals is correct species identification. However, in case of bats, information on local species assemblies is frequently limited especially in regions with high biodiversity such as the Neotropics.

Sperm morphology is considered a species‐specific character and has been used as a tool in the classification of numerous mammalian taxa. Neotropical bats have been poorly studied, and important aspects on sperm morphology have not been elucidated.

Coronavirus Detection in Bats Captured on the Deforestation Arc of Mato Grosso, Brazil. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Coronaviruses (CoV) are RNA viruses associated with enteric and respiratory diseases and known for their emergence potential in humans and other mammals. CoVs originate from zoonotic transmission, in which bats are natural reservoirs. Previous studies suggest that CoV diversity is positively correlated with bat diversity, whereas anthropogenic
