Ampliação da distribuição de quatro espécies de morcegos (Mammalia, Chiroptera) no Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to record the occurrence of four bats species in the central of the Rio Grande do Sul State, south of Brazil: Histiotus montanus, Pygoderma bilabiatum, Nyctinomops laticaudatus and Myotis ruber. Data were obtained from the scientific collection of Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM) and represent distribution extensions for these bat species in this State. We present information on the habitat where the species were collected, showing that some of them are new for this species. Some of the studied species may be considered rare in the Rio Grande do Sul State, whereas others should have their degree of threat revaluated.

Morcegos da região sul do Brasil: análise comparativa da riqueza de espécies, novos registros e atualizações nomenclaturais (Mammalia, Chiroptera)

“…Chama a atenção o número de ampliações de distribuições geográficas e novos registros (e.g. DIAS et al, 2003;NOGUEIRA et al, 2003;POL et al, 2003;GREGORIN et al, 2004;CAMARGO & FISCHER, 2005;BORDIGNON, 2005;AGUIAR et al, 2006;FABIÁN et al, 2006;MELLO & POL, 2006;MIKALUSKAS et al, 2006;MIRANDA et al, 2006bMIRANDA et al, , 2007aMIRANDA et al, , 2007bSODRÉ & UIEDA, 2006;WEBER et al, 2006WEBER et al, , 2007BERNARDI et al, 2007;GAZARINI & BERNARDI, 2007;LONGO et al, 2007;SCULTORI et al, 2009). Além dessas novas ocorrências, foram realizadas descrições de novas espécies para o Brasil: Xeronycteris vierai Gregorin & Diethfield, 2006, Thyroptera devivoi Gregorin, Gonçalves & Engstron, 2006 e Eptesicus taddeii Miranda, Bernardi & Passos, 2006(GREGORIN & DIETCHFIELD, 2006MIRANDA et al, 2006a).…”

Mammalia, Chiroptera, Rio Grande, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil

“…Captures of M. molossus and E. brasiliensis and the presence of G. soricina, H. velatus and M. molossus in the ICB-FURG collection also indicate the occurrence of these species in urban areas. All of these species and N. laticaudatus are cited as occurring in urban areas (Santos 1978;Bredt 1998;Silva 1994;Weber et al 2007;Zortéa 2007;Pacheco et al 2010). Avila-Flores et al (2002) also pointed out that N. laticaudatus commonly roosts in hollows and crevices in modern man-made structures.…”

Expansion of the southern limit of Vampyrodes caraccioli Thomas, 1889 (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae) and first record for Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil

“…Zortéa et al 2013, Dias et al 2016, Basílio et al 2017, including the southern region of the country (e.g. Weber et al 2006, Gazarini and Bernardi 2007, Miranda et al 2007, Scultori et al 2009a, b, c, Carvalho and Fabián 2011. Additionally, in the last 6 years the distribution of the genus Vampyrodes Thomas, 1900 has been expanded , Velazco and Simmons 2011, Carvalho et al 2014, Lopes et al 2016.…”
