two new species of the genus periglischrus (acari: mesostigmata: spinturnicidae) on two bat species of the genus tonatia (chiroptera: phyllostomidae) from southeastern mexico, with additional data from panama.	two new species of spinturnicid mites of the genus periglischrus are described and illustrated from phyllostomid bats from southeastern mexico: the female, male, and protonymph of periglischrus steresotrichus, new species, from tonatia evotis davis & carter, and the female and male of periglischrus eurysternus, new species, from tonatia saurophila koopman & williams. a supplementary description of the male deutonymph of p. eurysternus from t. saurophila from panama is given. the morphological fe ...	2002	11931030
phylogenetic reconstruction by cross-species chromosome painting and g-banding in four species of phyllostomini tribe (chiroptera, phyllostomidae) in the brazilian amazon: an independent evidence for monophyly.	the subfamily phyllostominae comprises taxa with a variety of feeding strategies. from the cytogenetic point of view, phyllostominae shows different rates of chromosomal evolution between genera, with phyllostomus hastatus probably retaining the ancestral karyotype for the subfamily. since chromosomal rearrangements occur rarely in the genome and have great value as phylogenetic markers and in taxonomic characterization, we analyzed three species: lophostoma silvicola (lsi), phyllostomus discolo ...	2015	25806812
integration of molecular cytogenetics, dated molecular phylogeny, and model-based predictions to understand the extreme chromosome reorganization in the neotropical genus tonatia (chiroptera: phyllostomidae).	defining factors that contributed to the fixation of a high number of underdominant chromosomal rearrangements is a complex task because not only molecular mechanisms must be considered, but also the uniqueness of natural history attributes of each taxon. ideally, detailed investigation of the chromosome architecture of an organism and related groups, placed within a phylogenetic context, is required. we used multiple approaches to investigate the dynamics of chromosomal evolution in lineages of ...	2015	26444412
systematics and taxonomy of tonatia saurophila koopman & williams, 1951 (chiroptera, phyllostomidae).	the stripe-headed round-eared bat, tonatia saurophila, includes three subspecies: tonatia saurophila saurophila (known only from subfossil records in jamaica), tonatia saurophila bakeri (distributed from southeastern mexico to northern colombia, venezuela west and north of the cordillera de mérida, and northwestern ecuador), and tonatia saurophila maresi (distributed in venezuela east and south of the cordillera de mérida, the guianas, trinidad and tobago, northeastern brazil, and along the uppe ...	2020	32148423
