| first report of rabies infection in bats, molossus molossus, molossops neglectus and myotis riparius in the city of são paulo, state of são paulo, southeastern brazil. | this paper presents the first report of rabies in three bat species, molossus molossus, molossops neglectus and myotis riparius in the city of são paulo, brazil. | 2011 | 21503551 |
| new records of mites (acari: spinturnicidae) associated with bats (mammalia, chiroptera) in two brazilian biomes: pantanal and caatinga. | a first survey of mite species that ectoparasitize bats in the states of ceará and mato grosso was conducted. the specimens of bats and their mites were collected in areas of the caatinga and pantanal biomes. a total of 450 spinturnicids representing two genera and ten species was collected from 15 bat species in the private reserve of the natural patrimony serra das almas, ceará state, northeast brazil and 138 spinturnicids represented by two genera and four species were found in seven bats spe ... | 2016 | 26982558 |
| the effect of local land use on aerial insectivorous bats (chiroptera) within the two dominating crop types in the northern-caribbean lowlands of costa rica. | land transformation into agricultural areas and the intensification of management practices represent two of the most devastating threats to biodiversity worldwide. within this study, we investigated the effect of intensively managed agroecosystems on bat activity and species composition within two focal areas differing in landscape structure. we sampled bats via acoustic monitoring and insects with flight interception traps in banana and pineapple monoculture plantations and two nearby protecte ... | 2019 | 30645621 |
| a new species of eimeria schneider, 1875 (apicomplexa: eimeriidae) from myotis riparius handley, 1960 (chiroptera: vespertilionidae) in the atlantic forest of brazil, with a checklist of eimeria spp. reported from bats. | a new coccidian species of the genus eimeria schneider, 1875 (apicomplexa: eimeriidae), is reported from the bat host myotis riparius handley from ilha grande, a large island off the coast of the state of rio de janeiro, in southeastern brazil. | 2020 | 32124202 |
| co-occurrence of ectoparasites (insecta and arachnida) on bats (chiroptera) in an atlantic forest remnant, southeastern brazil. | neotropical bats are infested by multiple ectoparasites (like bat fly and mite species) and investigations on these invertebrates on their hosts are crucial to better understand the ectoparasite-ectoparasite and ectoparasite-host associations. the goal of this study was to report ectoparasites species (bat flies and mites) on bats, emphasizing ectoparasite co-occurrences and host-ectoparasite associations. we also test if there is relationship between bat flies and mites on their hosts. | 2020 | 32436052 |
