Spatio‑temporal distribution and reproductive phenologyof Neotropical bat species in an altitudinal gradient in Costa Rica
(2022-01-14)
We studied the altitudinal and temporal patterns of species abundance and reproductive status for 18 Neotropical bat species
during 17 continuous months in four ranges (low 50, mid–low 500, mid–high 1000, and high 2000 ...
Strong individual signatures and weaker group signatures in contact calls of Spix’s disc-winged bat, Thyroptera tricolor
(2012-01)
Spix’s disc-winged bats, Thyroptera tricolor, form small, long-term social groups in which members are
loyal to a patch of forest but move on a daily basis between highly ephemeral roosting sites (partly unfurled Heliconia ...
Landing manoeuvres predict roost-site preferences in bats
(2022-11-11)
Roosts are vital for the survival of many species, and how individuals
choose one site over another is affected by various factors. In bats,
for example, species may use stiff roosts such as caves or compliant
ones such ...
Ecological Correlates of Range Size in the Tent-Making Bat Artibeus watsoni
(2007-04)
We examined variation in foraging- and roosting-range size in the tent-making bat Artibeus watsoni. We radiotracked 42 individuals at 2 sites in the Golfito Wildlife Refuge and 6 sites at Corcovado National Park, southwestern ...
Seasonality in the emission of contact calls in Spix’s disc-winged bats(Thyroptera tricolor) suggests a potential role in mate attraction
(2022)
Multiple studies show that animals exhibit consistent individual differences in behavior, but they also experience short-term changes
in their behavioral responses associated with seasonal events, most notably reproduction. ...
Reproduction and Growth in a Neotropical Insectivorous Bat
(2011)
Even though there is an abundance of data regarding the reproductive biology and postnatal growth of bats, comprehensive data on life history is still lacking for most species, particularly for rare families that have ...
Diversity and Conservation of Cave-Dwelling Bats in the Brunca Region of Costa Rica
(2018-06-02)
The Brunca region in Costa Rica contains the largest number of caves in the country, yet the diversity and distribution of bat species within those caves is currently unknown. Without this information, it is not possible ...
Reproductive biology and postnatal development in the tent-making bat Artibeus watsoni (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae)
(2006)
In this study we investigated the reproductive patterns and postnatal development in the tent‐making bat Artibeus watsoni. We sampled two populations in the Golfito Wildlife Refuge and Corcovado National Park, south‐western ...
