Bats (Chiroptera), one of the most diverse groups in terms taxonomy, morphology and ecology, are known for their nocturnal behaviour flight feeding. Although there is no consensus on evolution nocturnality bats, many authors mention risk predation, overheating, competition mobbing by non-competitor species as arguments to justify instead daytime bats. Herein we describe first records three genera phyllostomid bats flying, foraging drinking water during Brazilian Amazon. All taxa were...
Among all roads threats, roadkills in highways are considered the greatest source of anthropic pressure on wild vertebrate populations. In Brazil, data bat-vehicles collisions scarce and underestimated studies roadkilled fauna. Herein we present first records southern region Santa Catarina state, Brazil. Eleven individuals were recorded, belonging to at least four species. Sturnira lilium presented highest frequency collisions, followed by Artibeus lituratus . The diet foraging behavior most...
Para os estados que compõem a região do Brasil, Santa Catarina é aquele detém o menor conhecimento sobre composição de sua mastofauna terrestre, característica esta ainda mais acentuada na sul catarinense, onde poucos estudos foram desenvolvidos. O presente trabalho fornece uma lista atualizada mamíferos terrestres médio, grande porte e morcegos, com ocorrência confirmada por município componente da estado Catarina, Brasil. registro das taxas utilizados protocolos de: amostragem em campo;...
The greater round-eared bat, Tonatia bidens (Spix, 1823), is a medium-sized phyllostomid bat distributed in the north of Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil. diet foraging patterns this species are poorly known. We analyzed composition population T. how temperature influences consumption vertebrates invertebrates. To describe composition, we conducted weekly collections food scrap from two monospecific night-perches. Data for study period were taken meteorological station installed 300 m...
Data on mammals in Brazilian Restinga are scarce, especially chiropterans. This study aims to analyze the composition of bat assemblages a degraded environment southern Brazil. The samplings were carried out municipality Jaguaruna, coast Santa Catarina state, from 2006 2016. Bats captured mist nets at understory layer. Richness, abundance and frequency considered order describe assemblage structure. We 514 individuals two families, eight genera 14 species. Species accumulation curve did not...
Abstract Camera traps became the main observational method of a myriad species over large areas. Data sets from camera can be used to describe patterns and monitor occupancy, abundance, richness wildlife, essential information for conservation in times rapid climate land‐cover changes. Habitat loss poaching are responsible historical population losses mammals Atlantic Forest biodiversity hotspot, especially medium large‐sized species. Here we present data set trap surveys native (>1 kg)...
Bats and ectoparasites, Streblidae Nycteribiidae, are good models to study ecological interactions due their specificity. Knowledge about the between these groups is heterogeneous fragmented throughout Brazilian territory, mainly in southern region – influenced by temperate climate with bat fauna presenting elements from both tropical areas. We evaluated interaction of parasites bats an Atlantic Forest area, Brazil. captured ectoparasites monthly 10 campaigns using mist nets. To describe...
Here, we present an updated list of bats from Guarapuava highlands, center-southern Paraná state, southern Brazil. This species is based on four literature records (secondary data) and data fieldwork (primary in three localities. All recorded secondary were evaluated by the relative frequency their conservation status assessed. The also abundance. A beta diversity analysis was done to verify dissimilarities bat fauna among seven We 28 highlands (14 Vespertilionidae, 10 Phyllostomidae 4...
Lasiurus egregius (Peters, 1870) is an insectivorous bat species known from Central and South America. This species has few confirmed records throughout its distribution. Here we report the first record of L. northern coast Paraná state, southern Brazil. We captured a female individual using ultrathin mist-net installed over river knee, at Salto Morato Natural Reserve, municipality Guaraqueçaba. fourteenth locality with occurrence ,...
Abstract Two individuals of the jaguar, Panthera onca (L.), were captured near municipality Presidente Figueiredo, Brazilian Amazon, during years 2017 and 2018. The jaguars presented furuncular myiasis caused by human botfly Dermatobia hominis (L.) on rear thighs tail. This is first record infestation D. in P. Amazon region.
Collared Forest Falcon Micrastur semitorquatus ranges from northern Mexico to southern Brazil. This species is known lay 1–3 eggs. We describe the first four-egg clutch for M. observations made in Brazil, state of Santa Catarina. also nest site, nestling diet and assess sex ratio mass gain nestlings.
