“…Sampling localities reported by Muchhala et al (2005) in addition to the Colombian record presented here in Figure 1 were used as input for the generation of the Maxent model. The resulting model excluded A. fistulata from the Andean piedmont of the Colombian Chocoan Region (occurrence probability less than 30%), considered the preferred habitat of A. cadenai (Mantilla-Meluk and Baker 2006). In our A. fistulata Maxent model areas with occurrence probabilities greater than 50% were restricted to the eastern versant of the Ecuadorian Andes and could explain the apparent rarity of A. fistulata in Colombia (Figure 3).…”

“…Morphometric data were collected from the bats according to Barquez (1987), along with additional data including sex, reproductive status, developmental stage, temperature, and weight. Bat identification was done according to the keys by Linares (1986), Timm et al, (1999); Muñoz (2001); Mantilla-Meluk & Baker (2006); Gardner (2007); Zurc & Velazco (2010); Solari et al (2013). Several bats were taxidermized, including at least one individual per species (voucher), and eventually deposited in the Colección de Mamíferos del Museo de Historia Natural de la Universidad de Caldas (MHN-UC).…”

First records of ectoparasitic insects (Diptera: Hippoboscoidea) of bats in the department of Caldas, Colombia

In Colombia, the taxonomical understanding of ectoparasites (Diptera: Streblidae and Nycteribiidae) of bats is scarce, despite the high diversity of hosts. This fact reflects the lack of important information on the group and poses the need for studies that expand the knowledge on bat ectoparasites in different regions of the country. The aim of this study was to contribute pioneer knowledge on bat ectoparasitic insects in the department of Caldas, located in the Central Andes Mountain range of Colombia. We assessed 318 bats from four eco parks in the city of Manizales, and collected 234 ectoparasitic insects. We provide the first report of the family Streblidae for Caldas, with seven genera and eight species: Anastrebla caudiferae Wenzel, 1976, Anatrichobius scorzai Wenzel, 1966, Exastinion oculatum Wenzel, 1976, Megistopoda proxima (Séguy‚ 1926), Paratrichobius longicrus Ribeiro, 1907, Paraeuctenodes similis Wenzel, 1976, Trichobius longipes Rudow, 1871, and Trichobius tiptoni Wenzel, 1976. In addition, we report the species Basilia ferrisi Schuurmans Stekhoven, 1931 and Basilia sp. for the family Nycteribiidae.

“…Anoura Gray, 1838 is represented in Brazil by A. caudifer (É. Geoffroy, 1818) and A. geoffroyi Gray, 1838 (Nogueira et al 2014). The two species are distinguished by external characters: A. caudifer is smaller (forearm < 39 mm in A. caudifer, > 39 mm in A. geoffroyi); the tail is present in A. caudifer, although reduced and sometimes not visible (always absent in A. geoffroyi); uropatagium is narrow with a central fringe in A. caudifer (very reduced and well furred with the fur reaching the feet in A. geoffroyi) (Mantilla-Meluk and Baker 2006, Nogueira et al 2007a, Díaz et al 2016. Specimens from PECB (ZSP 001, 012; see Table 5 for measurements) presented bicolored dorsal fur, with pale basis and brown tips; ventral fur lighter than dorsum, mid brown and almost unicolored; uropatagium with a central fringe of dense hairs; and tail visible.…”

Carlos Botelho State Park (PECB) is a large remnant of Atlantic Forest in Southeastern Brazil, with more than 37,000 ha. As its bat fauna is still unknown, we performed the first bat survey on PECB, to provide data on the distribution, natural history and taxonomy of the species. Fieldwork was conducted monthly, from October 2016 to September 2017. Captures were made using ground-level mist-nets (39600 m2.h), canopy mist-nets (2017.5 m2.h) and searches for roosts (42 hours).We captured 412 bats from 34 species of Phyllostomidae, Molossidae and Vespertilionidae. A total of 11 species were captured only in ground-level mist-nets, five in canopy mist-nets, and seven in roosts. Dermanura cinerea Gervais, 1856, Eptesicus taddeii Miranda, Bernardi & Passos, 2006, Glyphonycteris sylvestris Thomas, 1896 and Lampronycteris brachyotis (Dobson, 1879) are rare on surveys conducted in the Atlantic Forest of São Paulo and were captured in canopy mist-nets. Micronycteris schmidtorum Sanborn, 1935 and Molossus currentium Thomas, 1901 constitute the first record for the state of São Paulo, and were captured in canopy mist-nets and roosts, respectively. The species richness registered for PECB surpasses other surveys conducted in Atlantic Forest localities that use only ground-level mist-nets. Our results reinforce the importance of employing mixed capture methods, such as elevated mist-nets and searches for roosts.
