Bat assemblage in a karstic area from northern Brazil: seven new occurrences for Tocantins state, including the first record of Glyphonycteris sylvestris Thomas, 1896 for the Cerrado

Abstract: The Cerrado, the second largest morphoclimatic area of South America, has many limestone outcrops with caves. However, studies of the bat fauna in karstic environments in the Cerrado are scarce. We present an inventory of bats in a karstic Cerrado area in the Tocantins state. We used mist-nets to sample caves, savannas, deciduous forests, and periurban environments. We captured 516 bats of 30 species, revealing that the study area is one of richest for bat species in the Brazilian Cerrado. Seven new occurrence… Show more

“…(Passos et al 2010), which differs from other regions of Brazil, in which Phyllostomidae represents more than 50% of the total registered species (e.g. Esbérard 2003, Bernard and Fenton 2007, Alho et al 2011, Carvalho et al 2013, Felix et al 2016. The typical temperate climate in the southern region of Brazil can limit the occurrence of tropical bat species, specifically in the southern portion of the Atlantic Forest (Fabián et al 1999), where at least 24 species of Phyllostomidae have their southern limits of distribution (e.g.…”
