The genome sequence of Artibeus intermedius (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae, Stenodermatinae; J. A. Allen, 1897) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]

Wellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Artibeus intermedius (Chordata; Mammalia; Chiroptera; Phyllostomidae). The genome sequence is 2.3Gb in span.

Coronavirus Detection in Bats Captured on the Deforestation Arc of Mato Grosso, Brazil. [PDF]

Zoonoses Public Health
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

Comparative Analysis of Mitochondrial Genomes and Phylogeny of Barbastelle Bats Across China. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
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.

DIVERSITY OF FRUGIVORES BATS AND SEEDS CONSUMED ON THE EDGES OF CLOUD FOREST, VERACRUZ, MEXICO

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2023
Background: The change in the coverage of the Cloud Forest (CF) generates edges and fragments of original vegetation that can affect the bat community and the diversity of dispersed seeds.

Oceanic Island Bats as Flower visitors and pollinators

Journal of Pollination Ecology, 2023
Oceanic islands are relatively poor in insects compared to mainland areas. Therefore, insect-eating island birds and lizards may include other food sources into their diet, e.g. nectar and pollen.

Phylogenetic Conservatism and Ambient Temperature Shape Spatial Variation in Bat Occupancy and Species Richness Along a Subtropical Elevational Gradient. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
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]

Vet Med Sci
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 ...
