Roosts Used by Sturnira lilium (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) in Belize1

Biotropica, 2000
ABSTRACTBetween 9 and 22 January 1999, radio‐tracking revealed that nineSturnira lilium(seven females, one lactating, and two males) used hollow trees (N = 5), vine tangles (TV = 2), or the bases of palm fronds (TV = 1) as day roosts near Lamanai in Belize over 43 roost days.

Characterisation of germline progenitor cells in the testes of phylostomid bats: Artibeus jamaicensis and Sturnira lilium.

Reproduction, Fertility and Development
Context A population of sperm progenitor cells, known as Asingle spermatogonia, has been described in mammalian testes. During division cycles in spermatogenesis, some cells will form part of the Asingle spermatogonia group, while others form primary ...

Oxidative state of the frugivorous bat Sturnira lilium (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) in agricultural and urban areas of southern Brazil

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2020
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Exposure to contaminants is one of the main threats to all living organisms. In this context, bats have been used to indicate environmental contaminants in urban and agricultural environments, since they are extremely sensitive to changes in the ecosystem and easily accumulate waste in their body ...

Gonadal morphogenesis and establishment of the germline in the phyllostomid bat Sturnira lilium.

Acta Histochemica, 2017
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) In vertebrates such as the mouse and the human, primordial germ cells (PGCs) arise at the base of the allantois and are carried to the epithelium of the posterior intestine, to later migrate to the primordial gonads. In the case of bats, almost nothing is known about this process.

Digestion time and intactness of seeds ingested by Sturnira lilium (E. Geoffroy, 1810) (Mammalia, Chiroptera)

open access: yesStudies on Neotropical Fauna and Environment, 2018
Bats are responsible for many ecological services, such as seed dispersal of several plant species, contributing to the processes of succession and forest regeneration. A factor that can interfere with this process is the animal digestion, which can affect germination, altering the patterns of seedling distribution.

Facultative hypothermia as a thermoregulatory strategy in the phyllostomid bats, Carollia perspicillata and Sturnira lilium

Journal of Comparative Physiology B: Biochemical, Systemic, and Environmental Physiology, 1997
The present study questions whether hypothermia is an artifact due to captivity-induced stress or a thermoregulatory strategy for bats of the neotropical family Phyllostomidae. In Guanacaste, Costa Rica, Carollia perspicillata and Sturnira lilium exhibited a bimodal distribution of body temperatures when submitted to an ambient temperature of 21 ...
