“…Urban bats can be an easily accessible food resource for predators, such as falcons or accipritids, which have been reported near these urban roosts (Mikula et al 2016). The presence of Artibeus fratercu-lus has been reported in Guayaquil previously (Salas et al 2018), and it is a species that adapts easily to using human structures as shelters (Pinto et al 2013), so it is a food resource easily accessible by predators. Previously, only the barn owl Tyto alba had been reported as a predator of A. fraterculus (Moreno 2010, Thomas & Thomas 1977; other authors had suggested that owls such as Pulsatrix perspicillata, Glaucidium peruvianum, Megascops roburatus, Strix nigrolineata, S. virgata, or the bat-hunter falcon Falco rufigularis may be potential predators, based on observations of predation on other species of Artibeus (Salas et al 2018).…”

“…The second observation was opportunistic, where MA, DAC, CB, and RM noticed, observed, and photographed an immature individual of Accipiter bicolor while eat a bat in a street in an urban area. The hawk was identified by the diffuse brown hue of its plumage, as well as by the characteristics described above (Bierregaard et al 2020, McMullan & Navarrete 2017; the bat was identified by external morphological characteristics from photographs (Tirira 2017, Salas et al 2018. For validate taxonomic identification of bat and complement information about the possible hunting strategy of the hawk, JAS searched for bat refuges in this urban sector.…”

“…Escasos estudios en el Ecuador han evaluado los patrones reproductivos de murciélagos: en la Amazonía (Tirira et al, 2019;Tirira y de Vries, 1994), la zona andina (Boada et al, 2003) y en la Costa (Salas et al, 2018). En este contexto, observaciones producto de estudios ambientales son fuentes útiles de información que permiten ampliar aspectos biológicos de la fauna silvestre.…”
