“…), which falsifies our prediction that species that roost both in tents and in unmodified foliage are smaller than cavity‐roosting bats. Exceptions to this pattern are species that have occasionally been found roosting in tents: the large Artibeus jamaicensis and Artibeus lituratus , but the data available suggest that both species do not make tents (Brooke , Hernández‐Mijangos & Medellín ). These large Artibeus bats are likely to be opportunistic tent users, as both species are generalists using a wide array of roosts that include hollow trees, rock cavities, termite nests, and unmodified foliage (Table ).…”

“…Caves and rock crevices (199 records, 16%) were the second most frequent type of roost recorded, followed by cavities in standing trees (68 records, 5.5%). Tent use was recorded for a total of 19 species, one more than the number of tent‐roosting bat species previously compiled by Hernández‐Mijangos and Medellín ().…”

“…The inter or intraspecific relationships of individuals with this chromatic disorder are considered to be unaffected of because it does not increase the risk of predation in juveniles stages, being possible to observe them in subadult or adulthood stages (Souza et al 2013, Tello et al 2014, Zalapa et al 2016, Hernández-Aguilar & Santos-Moreno 2018, Borloti et al 2019, Pereira et al 2022, or in individuals they have reached their reproductive stage, such as gravid or lactating females, and males with scrotal testicles (Hernández-Mijangos 2009, Sánchez-Hernández et al 2010, Marín-Vásquez et al 2010, García-Morales et al 2012, López-Wilchis & León 2012, Zalapa et al 2016, Biassi et al 2017, Aguilar-López et al 2021, Genelhú et al 2022. This hypothesis is supported by the specimens of Trachops cirrhosis reported in this study was a subadult individual.…”

“…No obstante, en ninguno de los dos trabajos anteriores se presentaron ratones como parte de la mastofauna encontrada en las palmas. Según Chang y Ling (1998), algunas especies, como los filostómidos (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) y D. marsupialis, tienden a aprovechar a las palmas para efectos de alimentación y vivienda; sin embargo, otros mamíferos, especialmente murciélagos, la usan también para caza o percha (Hernández-Mijangos y Medellín, 2013;Rodríguez-Herrera et al, 2007;García-García y Santos-Moreno, 2014). Por último, la presencia de mamíferos en las palmas en las que también se colectaron los triatominos debe ser considerado como de interés epidemiológico; según Reyes et al (2017), el mantenimiento de ecotopos, que pueden alojar animales como triatominos y mamíferos (entre ellos zarigüeyas, murciélagos y ratones), permite también mantener el ciclo silvestre de la enfermedad de Chagas.…”
