Suitable habitat fragment size, isolation, and distance from a source are important variables influencing community composition of plants animals, but the role these environmental factors in determining variation host-associated microbial communities is poorly known. In parasite-associated communities, it hypothesized that evolution ecology an arthropod parasite will influence its microbiome more than broader factors, this hypothesis has not been extensively tested. To examine environment on...

Abstract Ecological specialization reflects both evolutionary and ecological processes. For parasitic taxa, can be assessed as the degree to which a parasite species will associate with certain host species, property known specificity. Ectoparasitic bat flies have been previously reported highly specific, presumably due history of coevolution their hosts. However, there is conflicting evidence between bats flies. Resource-driven competition individuals may also important in explaining...

Abstract Species distribution and persistence have long been known to vary with landscape structure; however, continued human activities in altered landscapes raise many questions as how habitat fragmentation impacts the biology of persistent animal populations. Using carbon nitrogen stable isotope analysis, we examined interspecific variation diet frugivorous bats among remnant patches Brazil’s Atlantic Forest. We hypothesized that individuals captured would be different than those...
Reserva Ecológica de Guapiaçu (REGUA) is a private, protected area inside remnant of the Atlantic Forest with high biodiversity. Although bats reserve have been sampled for more than two decades, few studies published about them. Based on compilation data from several surveys, we present an updated list bat species there and compare it surveys other locations in Forest. From August 1998 to September 2021, at least 194 sampling nights were carried out REGUA by different research groups...
