| a new species of eudusbabekia jameson, 1971 (acari: myobiidae) parasitising rhinophylla pumilio peters (chiroptera: phyllostomidae) from ecuador. | the mite eudusbabekia rhinophylla n. sp. is described from the bat rhinophylla pumilio peters in ecuador. it is considered to be a member of the subgenus eudusbabekia, differing from other representatives of this group by the lanceolate shape of the coxal setae. | 2002 | 12075149 |
| karyotypic variation in rhinophylla pumilio peters, 1865 and comparative analysis with representatives of two subfamilies of phyllostomidae (chiroptera). | the family phyllostomidae belongs to the most abundant and diverse group of bats in the neotropics with more morphological traits variation at the family level than any other group within mammals. in this work, we present data of chromosome banding (g, c and ag-nor) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (fish) for representatives of rhinophylla pumilio peters, 1865 collected in four states of brazil (amazonas, bahia, mato grosso and pará). two karyomorphs were found in this species: 2n=34, fn=6 ... | 2012 | 24260663 |
| foraging behaviour of a frugivorous bat helps bridge landscape connectivity and ecological processes in a fragmented rainforest. | 1. landscape connectivity may greatly influence the distribution of animals when it alters their movements and their ability to reach food patches. depending on their foraging behaviour, organisms may or may not adapt to anthropogenic changes in landscape connectivity and may eventually undergo local extinctions. 2. recent studies underlined the need to use indicators of functional landscape connectivity based on the behaviour and movement abilities of studied animals to better link landscape st ... | 2007 | 17584386 |
| two new species and new records of mites of the genus parichoronyssus (acari: macronyssidae) from south american bats (chiroptera), with a key to the known species of the genus. | derived from exhaustive search of mites of the genus parichoronyssus associated with south american bats, we found two new species associated with phyllostomid, emballonurid, and noctiniolid bats: parichoronyssus alexanderfaini n. sp. associated with rhinophylla pumilio peters; parichoronyssus gettingeri n. sp. associated with rhynchonycteris naso wied-newied, and noctilio leporinus linneo. herein we give the description of those new species, and additionally is included several new records for ... | 2020 | 31746338 |
