“…We also studied the distribution and the scoring of discrete morphological characters available in the literature for species of Carollia (e.g., Pine 1972, Solari and Baker 2006, Zurc and Velazco 2010, Ruelas 2017.…”

“…Herein we studied specimens of Carollia from several regions of Brazil previously identified as C. benkeithi, C. brevicauda or C. perspicillata checking the consistency of the characters available in the literature traditionally used for their differentiation (e.g., Pine 1972, Lim and Engstrom 2001, Solari and Baker 2006, McLellan and Koopman 2008, Zurc and Velazco 2010, Ruelas 2017) and investigating the distribution of the Carollia species in Brazil.…”

“…The difficulties to identifying useful discrete characters to differentiate among species of Carollia are related to the variation of characters along their geographic distribution resulting in problems for the taxonomy and species delimitation within the genus. Accordingly, several authors described characters to separate among species of Carollia, which were useful but generally limited to a certain part of the species distribution (Pine 1972, McLellan 1984, Lim and Engstrom 2001, Jarrín et al 2010, McLellan and Koopman 2008, Zurc and Velazco 2010, Ruelas 2017.…”

Carollia has a complex taxonomic history and is widely distributed in the Neotropics. Species of Carollia appear to have differentiated recently in the late Cenozoic, and present overlapping morphological characters that may not be useful to distinguish among species. Carollia has recently been revised, but only a few specimens representing the Brazilian distribution of Carollia within Brazil were studied. We reviewed specimens of Carollia distributed in several localities of Brazil revisiting previously described morphological characters for species identification, and taxonomic problems within the genus. We found a large degree of overlap between characters previously used to distinguish among species of Carollia, and some of them constitute variation within a same species. We also report new records extending the known distribution of C. benkeithi to farther east of its previously known distribution (Parauapebas, southeastern Pará, and Vitória do Xingu, Pará, eastern Amazonian Brazil) and one record extending the distribution of C. brevicauda south to Corumbá, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil.

“…For the taxonomic determination, we followed taxonomic keys (Gardner 2008, Diaz et al 2016, revisions (Barquez et al 1999, Woodman & Timm 2006, Garbino et al 2012, Ruelas 2017, and the specimens of the MUSM collection for comparisons. The taxonomic nomenclature used by Pacheco et al (2009) was complemented with more recent taxonomic changes (Parlos et al 2014).…”

Purús es una de las provincias de la Amazonía peruana con poca información sobre su biodiversidad, principalmente sobre los mamíferos pequeños. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo documentar la diversidad de murciélagos en la región mediante el desarrollo de inventarios intensivos en la Concesión de Conservación Río La Novia, localizada en el margen derecho del río La Novia, Purús, departamento de Ucayali. Realizamos evaluaciones de campo en temporada seca y húmeda del 2015, empleamos redes de neblina en subdosel y sotobosque, logrando un esfuerzo de muestreo total de 725 redes/noche. Como resultado, registramos 32 especies, que incluyen cuatro nuevos registros para Purús, de los cuales dos son nuevas para Ucayali (Eumops cf. delticus y Molossops temminckii). Las curvas de acumulación de especies por temporada se ajustaron al modelo de Clench; sin embargo, no se alcanzó la asíntota en ninguna, sugiriendo que más trabajo de campo es necesario. La familia mejor representada fue Phyllostomidae (24 especies), Además, encontramos que Carollia perspicillata y Artibeus planirostris fueron las especies más abundantes y que el gremio de los frugívoros fue el mejor representado. Nuestros resultados sugieren que la abundancia y composición de murciélagos en el Río La Novia están probablemente relacionados a los cambios estacionales, similar a otros bosques primarios. Debido a que Purús mantiene uno de los pocos bosques prístinos en el oeste de la Amazonía, sugerimos que más estudios son necesarios para conocer la diversidad y los patrones del ensamblaje de murciélagos en bosques tropicales.

“…Linear discriminant analysis has been used with other species of Phyllostomidae: for example Ruelas (2017) determined the main morphometric and skull characteristics of Carollia species in Peru, which were probably not well identified due to the use of controversial characteristics for their identification (this may be occurring for the species of Carollia in Honduras as well). Another example is Foltran Fialho (2009), who said that the main morphometric characteristic to identify Artibeus in Brazil is the forearm length, however, our results are more closely in accordance with Davis (1970), who indicated that forearm length is not a completely reliable indication for identifying all Central American members of Artibeus species.…”

Rare or misidentified? On the external identification of the neglected Artibeus inopinatus Davis & Carter, 1964 (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae) in Honduras

For years, the identification of Artibeus species has been controversial due to the overlap of morphometric characteristics between species. From February 2015 to September 2019, we sampled 25 sites in 10 departments of Honduras, and captured 81 Artibeus individuals using mist-nets. We determined the morphometric measurements that may be helpful in the identification of adult individuals of the Honduran Fruit-eating Bat, Artibeus inopinatus, in the field. We analyzed 648 morphometric measurements using a linear discriminant analysis, and determined that the forearm length, third metacarpal length, the length of the second phalanx of digit III, and body length are the main characteristics for the external identification of A. inopinatus.
