Scientific statement on the coverage of bats by the current pesticide risk assessment for birds and mammals

EFSA Journal, Volume 17, Issue 7, July 2019., 2019
Abstract Bats are an important group of mammals, frequently foraging in farmland and potentially exposed to pesticides. This statement considers whether the current risk assessment performed for birds and ground dwelling mammals exposed to pesticides is also protective of bats. Three main issues were addressed. Firstly, whether bats are toxicologically

Question the Mark: A Review and Assessment of Bat Marking Practices

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
We reviewed a decade of research on bats and conducted a broader systematic review to assess the nature of bat marking practices and the effects and efficacy of marks. Effects of marks on bats, mark details and marking procedures are rarely reported and further research on the effects of marks on bats and more thorough reporting are needed.

Review of the Bat Flies of Honduras, Central America (Diptera: Streblidae)

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Streblid bat flies are obligate and host‐specific blood‐feeding ectoparasites of bats. While the bat flies of some American countries are well studied (e.g., Panama, Venezuela), little is known about Honduran Streblidae. Accumulation of substantial numbers of specimens, from several different collections, has enabled a relatively thorough treatment of ...

Polychromophilus spp. (Haemosporida: Plasmodiidae): First Molecular Detection in Bat Flies From Brazilian Bats

Integrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 137-150, January 2026.
This study identifies Polychromophilus sp. in blood‐feeding flies (Basilia speiseri and Basilia lindolphoi) from Myotis nigricans bats in Brazil, marking the first molecular detection of the parasite in an insect vector in this country. Two haplotypes were identified, both within the Polychromophilus murinus group.

Pollen essential amino acids shape bat–flower interaction networks

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 3311-3324, November 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Although pollen consumption by phytophagous bats has long been documented, the role of its protein and amino acid content in driving plant–pollinator interactions remains largely overlooked.
