Comparative Analysis of Mitochondrial Genomes and Phylogeny of Barbastelle Bats Across China. [PDF]
Barbastelle bats are characterized by their distinct approximately square‐shaped outer ears, which converge at the forehead. In China, three species have been documented, and we present two mitochondrial genomes for Barbastella beijingensis and B. darjelingensis.

Phylogenetic Conservatism and Ambient Temperature Shape Spatial Variation in Bat Occupancy and Species Richness Along a Subtropical Elevational Gradient. [PDF]
We investigated how ecological traits and evolutionary history influence the occupancy of 27 bat species along a 1300 m elevational gradient in subtropical Brazil. While ecological traits poorly predicted species' responses, occupancy varied with temperature in a phylogenetically conserved manner, suggesting that elevational niches in bats may be ...

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 ...

Artibeus glaucus(Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) [PDF]
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The silvery fruit-eating bat (Artibeus glaucus Thomas, 1893) is a small sized phyllostomid bat with indistinct facial stripes and obscure pale edging on the ears, dark brown pelage with less contrast on the shoulders and venter, and dorsal fur that extends beyond the posterior margin of the uropatagium.

A general framework for modeling pathogen transmission in co-roosting host communities. [PDF]
Abstract Cross‐species transmission of pathogens can be facilitated by frequent contact among wildlife. Cross‐species transmission is often driven by phylogenetic similarity between host species, but the role this plays when multiple host species co‐roost is unknown.

Anoura caudifer (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) [PDF]
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Anoura caudifer (E´ . Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1818) is a phyllostomid commonly called the tailed tailless bat. This is a relatively small species with an elongated muzzle, a long and protractile tongue, and generally dark brown pelage; it is 1 of 8 species in the genus Anoura.

Anoura Geoffroyi (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) [PDF]
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Anoura geoffroyi Gray, 1838, is a phyllostomid bat commonly referred to as Geoffroy's tailless bat. This bat is broadly distributed in the Neotropics from both versants of Mexico into northern and western South America and the Amazon Basin. A.

Fish and amphibians as bat predators [PDF]
Although bats (Chiroptera) belong to the most diverse mammalian orders, study of diversity of their natural predators has been seriously neglected for a long time.
