Interindividual variations in fruit preferences of the yellow-shouldered bat Sturnira lilium (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) in a cafeteria experiment [PDF]
mammalia, 2014 (Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) In studies on frugivory and seed dispersal, it is frequently assumed that individual frugivores of the same population behave as equivalents. However, there is growing evidence from dietary studies pointing out that, in many natural populations, individuals use different subsets of the total resource ...

Ganglion-specific splicing of TRPV1 underlies infrared sensation in vampire bats. [PDF]
, 2011 Vampire bats (Desmodus rotundus) are obligate blood feeders that have evolved specialized systems to suit their sanguinary lifestyle. Chief among such adaptations is the ability to detect infrared radiation as a means of locating hotspots on warm-blooded

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

Infomap Bioregions: Interactive mapping of biogeographical regions from species distributions [PDF]
, 2016 Biogeographical regions (bioregions) reveal how different sets of species are spatially grouped and therefore are important units for conservation, historical biogeography, ecology and evolution. Several methods have been developed to identify bioregions

Studies on Neotropical Fauna and Environment, 2017 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.
