Bats (Mammalia: Chiroptera) in native and reforested areas in Rancho Alegre, Paraná, Brazil

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2010
Generally, natural environments have been transformed into small forest remnants, with the consequent habitat loss and species extinction. The North Paraná State is not an exception, since only 2 to 4% of the original ecosystem occurs in small fragments ...

Bats as instructive animal models for studying longevity and aging

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1541, Issue 1, Page 10-23, November 2024.
Every organism's lifespan depends on the balance of protective and regenerative versus degenerative processes. Bats (Chiroptera) live far longer than is predicted by their small body size. Recent studies explore mechanisms underlying their longevity and have raised the question of how their aging compares to that of equally long‐lived primates.

Genomic and functional insights into dietary diversification in New World leaf‐nosed bats (Phyllostomidae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 62, Issue 5, Page 928-941, September 2024.
Genes associated with taste, digestive system, and metabolism underlie the evolution of dietary diversification in New World leaf‐nosed bats. Abstract The most significant driver of adaptive radiation in the New World leaf‐nosed bats (Phyllostomidae) is their remarkably diverse feeding habits, yet there remains a notable scarcity of studies addressing ...

Bat mating systems—A review and recategorisation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2024.
Mating systems play crucial roles in behaviour, distribution, reproductive success, and population dynamics. Bats, known for their diverse mating systems, offer valuable insights into understanding the causes and effects of social organisation, yet research in this area lags behind broader bat studies.

Seasonal variation and host sex affect bat–bat fly interaction networks in the Amazonian savannahs

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 400-416, May 2024.
Our data provide information on the interactions between bats and bat flies in one of the largest portions of Brazilian Amazonian savannah. Here, we demonstrate that environmental variations and host sex can influence the structure of interaction networks formed between bats and their ectoparasitic flies. Abstract Bats are the second‐most diverse group
