“…The absence of a number of other species, such as Artibeus lituratus (Olfers, 1818) and Glossophaga soricina (Pallas, 1766) which are relatively common in most surveys in South America (Oprea 2006;Alves 2008;Carvalho et al 2009;Luz et al 2009;Oprea et al 2009;Gomes et al 2016), is probably related to the short duration of the study period. In addition, it is important to highlight that surveys of short duration may provide important insights into the diversity of the chiropteran community.…”

“…Despite some recent advances (Cerqueira et al 1990;Cerqueira 2000;Bergallo et al 2004), the mammalian fauna of coastal Brazilian restinga is still relatively poorly known, especially in relation to the occurrence of bats (Luz et al 2009). In addition, the data available on the distribution of chiropterans in this ecosystem are restricted to southern Brazil, in the states of Santa Catarina (Carvalho et al 2009), São Paulo (Alves 2008;Fogaça & Reis 2008), Rio de Janeiro (Gomes et al 2016), and Espírito Santo (Luz et al 2009;Oprea et al 2009). In the northeast of Brazil, only Sergipe has data on bats in restinga (Rocha et al 2017) Bats are important providers of ecosystem services, acting as pollinators, dispersers and consuming insects, including those considered as pests.…”

Atualmente, quarenta e uma espécies de morcegos são conhecidas para as restingas do Brasil. No entanto, a maioria dos estudos sobre morcegos das restingas são limitados às regiões sul e sudeste do Brasil, deixando a região nordeste com uma lacuna de conhecimento. O presente artigo apresenta dados sobre morcegos capturados em três áreas de restinga do município de Tibau do Sul, Rio Grande do Norte, levantados a partir de uma amostragem de curta duração. Redes de neblina para captura de morcegos foram armadas próximas ao solo e sobre o corpo d’água. Foram capturados 38 indivíduos de seis espécies de duas famílias: cinco Phyllostomidae e um Molossidae. O morcego Carollia perspicillata (Linnaeus, 1758) foi a espécie mais abundante. Apresentamos aqui a primeira lista de morcegos capturados em área de restinga para o Rio Grande do Norte.Palavras chave: Molossidae, Nordeste, Novo registro, Phyllostomidae, Tibau do Sul.Abstract: Currently, forty-one species of bats are known to occur in the restingas of Brazil. However, most studies on restingas’ bats are limited to the south and southeastern regions of Brazil, leaving the northeastern region with a gap of knowledge. The present article presents data on bats captured in three areas of restinga of the municipality of Tibau do Sul, Rio Grande do Norte, collected from a short-term sampling. Mist nets were used to capture bats near the ground and the water bodies. Were captured 38 individuals of six species and two families: five Phyllostomidae and one Molossidae. The bat Carollia perspicillata (Linnaeus, 1758) was the most abundant species. We present here the first list of bats captured in the restinga area for the Rio Grande do Norte State.Key words: Molossidae, New record, Northeast, Phyllostomidae, Tibau do Sul.

“…Carollia perspicillata, A. lituratus, A. planirostris, and D. cinerea were the most captured species in this study, being abundant in restinga areas (Oprea et al, 2009;Nogueira et al, 2010;Luz et al, 2011;Gomes et al, 2016;Soares et al, 2018). These species occur in a variety of habitats, from more structured forests to degraded areas and plantations (Bernard, 2002;Passos et al, 2003), and have high ecological flexibility because they are able to explore a wide variety of resources (Mikich, 2002;Passos et al, 2003).…”

“…For Chiroptera, studies have revealed that there is not a restricted fauna to restinga environ-ments in Brazil, with the occurrence of generalist and common species, which form a subset of species of the adjacent forest areas (Cerqueira, 2010). Despite the increase in the number of studies with bats in this environment in recent years (Bôlla et al, 2017), most of these are concentrated in the south and southeast regions of the country in the states of Rio de Janeiro (Cerqueira et al, 1990;Pessôa et al, 2010;Luz et al, 2011;Gomes et al, 2016), Espírito Santo (Luz et al, 2009;Oprea et al, 2009), Santa Catarina (Carvalho et al, 2009;Bôlla et al, 2017), and Paraná (Fogaça & Reis, 2008). In the northeast of the country, studies with this group in restingas have only been carried out in Paraíba (Campos et al, 2018), Rio Grande do Norte (Soares et al, 2018), and Sergipe (Rocha et al, 2017).…”

“…Some of these studies corresponded to a rapid survey with a small sampling effort in different habitats (Luz et al, 2009;Gomes et al, 2016;Rocha et al, 2017;Soares et al, 2018), and most of them revealed a low efficiency of bat capture in the rest-ISSN On-Line: 1807-0205 ISSN Printed: 0031-1049 ISNI: 0000-0004-0384-1825 inga areas (e.g., Luz et al, 2009Luz et al, , 2011Oprea et al, 2009;Nogueira et al, 2010;Gomes et al, 2016). Although the majority of species registered in this environment are generalist, the limitation of resources such as food and shelter in the restinga influences the lowest rates recorded (Nogueira et al, 2010), reflecting the lower densities for the group (Luz et al, 2011).…”

Bats in a restinga area in Sergipe, Northeastern Brazil

There is little known about the bats of the Brazilian restinga as most studies have concentrated on the country’s south and southeast regions. In Sergipe, Northeastern Brazil, the only study previously carried out registered 17 species in different restinga habitats. Thus, this study aimed to characterize the bat community in a restinga area in Sergipe and update the list of species that occur in the area. The study was carried out in the Caju Private Natural Heritage Reserve, on the south coast of the state of Sergipe. Monthly campaigns were carried out from October 2016 to September 2017 over two consecutive nights and alternating between two sites to capture the bats. We captured Bats using 10 mist nets that remained open between 6:00 p.m. and 12:00 p.m. We determined the abundance and trophic guilds of the captured species. In addition, we obtained the occurrence frequency degree through the Constancy Index. We captured 457 individuals distributed over 13 species and two families, where three species represented a new record for the locality. The family Phyllostomidae was the richest and most abundant. Most species were frugivorous (61.5%). According to the Constancy Index, only four species were considered common. Using Jackknife 1 estimator, we estimated 14.83 species for the area, indicating that the richness obtained in this study corresponds to 87.6% of this estimate. This study resulted in an 17.6% increase in bat richness known for the area. The high representativeness of the Phyllostomidae family may be related to the capture method used. The predominance of frugivores bats in this study may be associated with the presence of many fruit trees in the area. The low occurrence of species considered common is often reported and can be explained by the species’ trophic specializations and by the sampling methods. Considering the scarcity of studies in restinga areas in Northeastern Brazil, this work becomes important for the knowledge of the bats in this environment, especially for Sergipe.

Faunal inventories provide quantitative and qualitative data for different sites and are relevant sources of information for identifying areas of high species richness and endemism. Biological collections are important in this context for increasing the precision of species identification. The objectives of this study were to update the list of bat species of Ilha Grande by analyzing specimens in zoological collections as well as records obtained in areas where no such studies had been undertaken before; to compare five different studies conducted on Ilha Grande using mist net sampling; and to compare the results of studies on Ilha Grande with sampling results from other areas in Rio de Janeiro state. The occurrence of 36 bat species was confirmed for Ilha Grande. Five studies on Ilha Grande formerly conducted by the authors were compared with 34 fauna inventories in Rio de Janeiro state. The studies on Ilha Grande had distinct objectives and sampling techniques applied to different locations in the same area. Ilha Grande is one of the regions in Rio de Janeiro state with more bat records both in terms of abundance and number of species, as well as one of the areas of highest bat capture effort.
