Redescription of Mimon koepckeae (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) [PDF]
Zoologia (Curitiba), 2014 Mimon koepckeae Gardner & Patton, 1972 is a poorly-known bat species, with only three known specimens, including the holotype. Its distribution is restricted to the type locality in Ayacucho Department, Peru, and surroundings. This species has been synonymized with M. crenulatum by some authors. Based on a new specimen of M.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.This study evaluates whether diversification in Malagasy and African Miniopterus is associated with divergence in linear wing morphology. Principal component and morphospace analyses indicate that wing morphology is highly conserved across species, with most variation reflecting differences in size rather than shape.

Phyllostomid bat microbiome composition is associated to host phylogeny and feeding strategies
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 The members of the Phyllostomidae, the New-World leaf-nosed family of bats, show a remarkable evolutionary diversification of dietary strategies including insectivory, as the ancestral trait, followed by appearance of carnivory and plant-based diets such

Sturnira hondurensis(Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae)
Mammalian Species, 2021 AbstractThe Honduran yellow-shouldered bat (Sturnira hondurensis Goodwin, 1940) is a medium-sized Stenodermatinae with a vestigial uropatagium and no tail; it typically has reddish or yellowish patches on the shoulders. It is found in temperate habitats from Mexico to northern Nicaragua, and it is one of 24 described species of the genus Sturnira.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.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 ...

Phylogenetic approaches for studying competition in mammals
, 2009 Interspecific competition is often proposed to shape mammalian evolution. Many studies use trait and distribution data on extant species, but this ignores temporal aspects of competition.

The ecology of attraction: Fruit traits and frugivore diversity in neotropical Piper
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 611-623, March 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits can benefit plant reproduction by enhancing seed dispersal by mutualistic frugivores (e.g. seed dispersal syndromes), but identifying the role of specific fruit traits in mediating frugivory is challenging because these traits can serve multiple functions ...
