Abstract Bats are acknowledged as suppliers of essential ecosystem services such as insect pest control in agroecosystems. Little is known, however, on how bat assemblages respond to the gradients imposed by anthropogenic landscapes and farming practices and how these environmental effects translate into changes in bat foraging.

The authors explored how insularity influences herbivory in oaks across island–mainland sites. By experimentally excluding vertebrate predators (e.g. birds, bats) and measuring leaf traits (e.g. phenolics, specific leaf area, nutrients), they provide insights into the mechanisms driving island–mainland herbivory patterns.

Raman Spectroscopy Against Harmful Nitrogen‐Based Compounds in Cultural Heritage Materials
A comprehensive review of the use of Raman spectroscopy to detect nitrogen‐based compounds harmful to cultural heritage. ABSTRACT Nitrogen‐based compounds are widespread in the environment due to various sources of natural and anthropogenic origin that introduce them from the most reducing form (the acidic ammonium cation) to the most oxidized (the ...

We aimed at an inventory of all populations of wild Phaseolus (bean) species in Costa Rica, in relation to future plant breeding. During the field work in 2003–2018, three new and rare bean species (i.e. P. albicarminus, P. angucianae and P. hygrophilus) were found in different montane forest habitats which originally occupy a small acreage.

Bat winter foraging habitat use in working forests: a multispecies spatial occupancy approach
We examined winter occupancy and foraging habitat associations of bats in working pine forests of the southeastern United States Coastal Plain using acoustic detection. Although responses varied among species, we found that sites with high proportions of contiguous forest and low levels of basal area had higher bat community richness and species ...

Influence of microclimate and forest management on bat species faced with global change
Abstract Climate refugia, areas where climate is expected to remain relatively stable, can offer a near‐term safe haven for species sensitive to warming temperatures and drought. Understanding the influence of temperature, moisture, and disturbance on sensitive species is critical during this time of rapid climate change.

La dispersión de semillas por fauna juega un papel fundamental en la reproducción vegetal. Los murciélagos son unos de los dispersores de semillas más importantes en los ecosistemas neotropicales.

The role of archeological zones in biological conservation has been highlighted because they restrict land‐use change, size, and maintenance of upstanding vegetation. We found 23 species from six families and seven guilds, representing 53% of all bat species known from the Yucatan state, including two endangered species for Mexico.
