“…T. brasiliensis from Texas have considerable fat deposits during September just before the southward fall migration (Herreid, 1963). Fat indices in the non-migratory T. b. cynocephala are lower at all times of year than for T. b. mexicana in New Mexico (Pagels, 1975).…”

“…During the early dry season, females carry greater fat reserves than do males; this disparity between sexes decreases as the dry season passes into summer. Autumn fat indices for T. b. cynocephala in Louisiana increase from September into December (Pagels, 1975 ).…”

“…In experiments wherein food and water were withheld, mean survival times ranged from 2 to 82 days. Females resist hypothermia more effectively and survive longer than males (Pagels, 1975).…”

“…Body mass of bats that rewarmed was greater than for those that did not rewarm. Amounts of interscapular brown fat were greater in rewarming bats than in those that did not arouse (Pagels, 1972). T. brasiliensis warmed from torpor at an average rate of 0.55°C/min over 1 h (Herreid, 1967a).…”

“…Previous studies also have shown that T. b. cynocephala often selects roosts constructed of concrete or bricks (Bailey, 1951;Pagels, 1972Pagels, , 1975. Masonry structures may provide stable roost temperatures during the critical maternity and torpor periods (Carter, 1962).…”

Mammals have been the focus of intensive scientific inquiry and much is known of the life-history attributes of many species. However, recent environmental concerns and new legislation requiring environmental assessments have brought demands for more detailed information on the systematics, population status, and habitat require¬ ments of mammals. It will take the concerted efforts of professional mammalogists from federal and state agen¬ cies, academic institutions, and the private sector to establish priorities and meet the mammalian research and conservation needs that society requires. The "Colloquium" is a loosely organized group of professional scientists from the southeastern United States that has interest in conservation and management of mammals in the region. The group first met at the University of Memphis in 1991 and has met annually since then. The Colloquium exists to provide individuals representing different agencies or institutions to meet, get acquainted, and exchange information and ideas concern¬ ing mammalian research and conservation priorities.
