“…Artibeus lituratus é a espécie mais abundante em Campo Grande, semelhante ao encontrado em algumas cidades estudadas (e.g. Sazima et al 1994, Barros et al 2006, Oprea et al 2009). O sucesso desta espécie em áreas urbanas se deve provavelmente ao comportamento oportunista, ao hábito de abrigar-se em grupos pequenos na vegetação e à dieta variada -que inclui frutos, pólen, néctar, folhas e insetos (Sazima et al 1994, Zortéa & Chiarello 1994, Fischer, W.A.…”

fauna in urban remnants of Cerrado in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul. Biota Neotrop. 10(3): http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v10n3/en/ abstract?article+bn02910032010.Abstract: Campo Grande is the largest city of the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, located in the Cerrado domain, a biodiversity hotspot. Urban bat faunas have been poorly studied in Brazil, markedly in cities in the Cerrado region. The main objective here is describing composition, richness, and diversity of bat species which occur in the urban Cerrado remnants of Campo Grande. Bat samplings were carried out with mist-nets from March to August 2009 in eight urban parks. One sampling night was performed per month in each site, except in one; 47 nights at all. Each night, six 2.6 × 12 m nets were kept open for six hours after sunset; the capture effort was 52.790.4 m 2 /h. We captured 701 bats belonging to 14 species of which 12 were phyllostomids (98.6% of captures). Artibeus lituratus was the dominant species, such as reported in other urban regions in Brazil. Artibeus planirostris was the second most abundant species, in contrast to other urban bat assemblages. Chiroderma doriae, C. villosum, Phyllostomus hastatus e Platyrrhinus helleri were rare and registered for the first time in Campo Grande. Gathering other studies, 24 bat species are known to occur in Campo Grande, a high value among cities in the Cerrado. Bat diversity (H' = 1.65) in Campo Grande was also higher than that reported for other cities in the Cerrado or Atlantic Forest domains. The wide presence of forested parks in the urban zone may partially explain the great richness and diversity of bats in the Campo Grande city.

“…In the state of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil, only 0.81% of the Cerrado remains, and many of its remnants are located within or near urban areas (Kronka et al 2005). Although it is known that several bat species are able to maintain viable populations in urban environments or near them (Esbérard 2003;Barros et al 2006), bat population declines due to anthropogenic influences have been pointed out by several studies (Rydell et al 2010;Sakanowicz and Wower 2013;Brosset et al 1996).…”

We studied bat assemblages in seven sampling sites in the rural zone of São Carlos, southeastern Brazil. The sampling sites were two riparian forests, two types of Brazilian savanna (cerrado sensu stricto and cerradão), a Pinus plantation, a semideciduous forest, and an open area. We sampled bats from January 2007 to December 2011 with mist nets, totalizing 100 capture nights and 38,587 m2h of capture effort. We captured 523 individual bats of 23 species belonging to three families. Sturnira lilium was the most frequently captured species and represented 40% of all captures, followed by Carollia perspicillata (17%) and Glossophaga soricina (12%). The studied heterogeneous landscape harbors a rich bat fauna compared to other studies with similar effort in well-preserved savannas.

“…In urban environments, bat communities typically have low species richness (Brosset et al 1996;Vaughan et al 1997), associated to the loss or modification of shelter conditions and foraging sites (Avila-Flores and Fenton 2005). However, some species of bats have been shown to resist anthropogenic effects and sometimes even benefit from them, either by inhabiting urban forest fragments or settling directly in urbanized areas (Bredt and Uieda 1996;Fenton 1997;Esberárd 2003;Reis et al 2003;Barros et al 2006). Considering that a better understanding of the influence of urban areas in communities of tropical bats is required (Hourigan 2006), we present here a list of bat species recorded in forest fragments in the municipality of Maringá, state of Paraná, Brazil.…”

Bat assemblages in two urban fragments of Maringá city, north of the state of Paraná, southern Brazil, were inventoried. These fragments, Parque do Ingá (48 ha) and Parque Florestal dos Pioneiros (59 ha), are located in a subtropical region covered by semideciduous Atlantic forest. Bats were sampled with mist-nets from August 2006 to July 2007, over 24 nights (12 hours a night), adding up to a total of 30,240 h.m2 of net effort. A total of 839 individuals were captured belonging to 10 species and four families. Artibeus lituratus was the most abundant species (66% of the sample). The observed richness represents 22% of the bat species recorded for the state, 24% of the bat species occurring in the seasonal semideciduous forest of Paraná, 26% of the species previously recorded in urban environments in Brazil, and 83.4% of the estimated richness by Jackknife 1 (n= 12 species). Studies that provide data on richness and abundance of bat species in urban fragments are becoming increasingly important, but are still poorly available in Brazil. This habitat is especially interesting because anthropogenic pressure can be harmful to bat assemblages, reducing their diversity.
