Bat and Rodent Diversity in a Fragmented Landscape on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, Oaxaca, Mexico

Abstract: Resumen Estimamos los patrones de diversidad (riqueza y abundancia) y disimilitud en comunidades de roedores y murciélagos en cuatro sitios (unidades de paisaje) en el Istmo de Tehuantepec en Oaxaca, México, una región muy importante debido a la gran cantidad de especies endémicas neotropicales. El objetivo principal fue relacionar los parámetros de la comunidad de roedores y murciélagos con la diversidad de hábitats y disturbio humano en un paisaje fragmentado. Capturamos 1,133 individuos de 13 especies de ro… Show more

“…By far, most of the available evidence comes from studies in Mexico and Central American tropical wet and dry forests. These studies generally suggest that human-modified landscapes comprising a heterogeneous mosaic of different land-and tree-cover types can preserve species-rich bat assemblages (Estrada et al 1993a(Estrada et al , b, 2004Medellín et al 2000;Moreno and Halffter 2001;Estrada and Coates-Estrada 2002;Harvey et al 2006;Medina et al 2007;Barragan et al 2010;Mendenhall et al 2014). For instance, in a comparison of bat diversity in forest fragments, agricultural habitats, and live fences in Mexico, agricultural habitats contained 77 % of the species recorded, whereby species richness declined with increasing distance from forest fragments (Estrada et al 1993a).…”

“…Linear landscape elements (corridors of residual vegetation such as live fences or strips of riparian forest) and scattered trees, commonly found in Neotropical countryside landscapes, may enhance functional connectivity (Villard and Metzger 2014), and studies indicate that bats extensively use them (Estrada and CoatesEstrada 2001a;Galindo-González and Sosa 2003;Estrada et al 2004;Harvey et al 2006;Medina et al 2007;Barragan et al 2010). For instance, in agricultural landscapes in Nicaragua, riparian forests and live fences harbor greater bat species richness and abundance than do secondary forest and pastures with low tree cover (Harvey et al 2006;Medina et al 2007).…”

“…Es importante resaltar, que, a pesar de que los estudios sobre mamíferos en esta zona (Olguin-Monroy, León, Samper-Palacios, & Sánchez-Cordero, 2008;Barragán, Lorenzo, Morón, Briones-Salas, & López, 2010;Lira, Galindo-Leal, & Briones-Salas, 2012) y en este tipo de vegetación (Ortiz-Martínez, & RicoGray, 2007;Santos-Moreno, & Ruíz-Velás-quez, 2011) se han incrementado en los últimos años, aún hace falta información sobre su historia natural. Por ello, resulta necesaria la elaboración de estudios donde se documenten los patrones de riqueza, abundancia y distribución de dichas especies dentro de los hábitats para lograr su conservación y aprovechamiento.…”

“…Para P. discolor, detectou-se restos de insetos e coleópteros nas amostras fecais, como também constatado por Kwiecinski (2006) (BARRAGÁN et al, 2010). Contudo, tal espécie pode se alimentar também de frutos, pólen e/ou néctar (MARES et al, 1981).…”
