Compilação atualizada das espécies de morcegos (Chiroptera) para a Amazônia Brasileira

Abstract: Brazil holds nearly 15% of world's bat species richness, and most of it is present in the Amazonian biome. Here we present an updated compilation of bat species for the Brazilian Amazonia, with records of 146 species, belonging to nine families and 64 genera. At least 46 of those species are currently restricted to the Amazonian biome. Pará State is the species richest (120 spp.) and the Amazonian portion of Maranhão the least (21 spp.). Nine species were recorded in all the Amazonian States, and 28 are restri… Show more

“…As in many other Amazonian bat inventories (e.g., Simmons and Voss 1998;Lim et al 2005;Miranda et al 2015) the most diverse groups recorded were frugivore phyllostomids (14 species), animalivore phyllostomids (nine species), and insectivorous emballonurids (six species). Among the recorded species there are five new records for the state of Mato Grosso and a range extension for the southern Amazon basin, increasing the bat diversity from 86 (Bernard et al 2011b;Louzada et al 2015) to 91 species (Table 1) for Amazonian Mato Grosso. The new records are: Peropteryx kappleri, P. leucoptera, Lonchorhina inusitata, Tonatia saurophila, and Artibeus concolor.…”

“…No Brasil atualmente estão listados 68 gêneros e são encontradas nove famílias de morcegos (Emballonuridae, Furipteridae, Molossidae, Mormoopidae, Natalidade, Noctilionidae, Phyllostomidae, Thyropteridae e Vespertilionidae) e 178 espécies (NOGUEIRA et al, 2014). Na Amazônia brasileira são encontradas mais de 150 espécies pertencentes a nove famílias (BERNARD et al, 2011a).…”

“…Chiroptera is one of the most diverse mammal orders in the world, including 18 families, 202 genus and 1120 species (Reis et al 2007), which represents about 22% of the total number of mammals worldwide (Simmons 2005).With the employment of new sampling techniques, increase in sampling effort and number of researchers, besides systematic reviews and description of new species, the number of known species in Brazil is still increasing (Tavares et al 2008;Bernard et al 2011;Paglia et al 2012, Nogueira et al 2014. Following the newest reports, nine families, 68 genera and about 178 species (Nogueira et al 2014) are recorded for Brazil, exceeding previous estimates.…”
