Functional differences in echolocation call design in an adaptive radiation of bats
Most bat species use echolocation for navigation and foraging, but which and how ecological factors shaped echolocation call diversity remains unclear for the most diverse clades, including the adaptive radiation of neotropical leaf‐nosed bats (Phyllostomidae).

Dental anomaly in the yellow-shouldered bat, Sturnira lilium
Abnormal dental formulas occur frequently in natural populations. Numerous cases of dental anomalies have been reported for many groups of mammals, and bats are the group with most dental anomalies among mammals. Here we describe the occurrence of a diastema in the position of the upper incisors in an individual of Sturnira lilium collected in southern
