| molecular characteristics and evolution of the mitochondrial control region in three genera (hipposideridae: hipposideros aselliscus and coelops) of leaf-nosed bats. | the mitochondrial control region (cr) was sequenced for three genera of hipposideridae to give a detailed overview of its features. the cr of leaf-nosed bats (1288-1560 bp) was divided into three domains like that of other mammals. in addition to the common conserved blocks (etas1, etas2, f-b boxes, csb1, csb2, and csb3) found in all species, a csb1-like element was also detected in the conserved sequence blocks (csb). repeated motifs were examined in the etas of aselliscus stoliczkanus (26 bp) ... | 2013 | 23406568 |
| acoustic divergence in two cryptic hipposideros species: a role for social selection? | we present evidence that a relatively widespread and common bat from south east asia comprises two morphologically cryptic but acoustically divergent species. a population of the bicoloured leaf-nosed bat (hipposideros bicolor) from peninsular malaysia exhibits a bimodal distribution of echolocation call frequencies, with peaks in the frequency of maximum energy at ca. 131 and 142 khz. the two phonic types are genetically distinct, with a cytochrome b sequence divergence of just under 7%. we con ... | 2001 | 11429138 |
| the organ of corti in the bat hipposideros bicolor. | the bat hipposideros bicolor (hipposideridae, microchiroptera) is the mammalian species with the highest upper limit of hearing in which the structure of the organ of corti has been studied. h. bicolor emits pure tone echo-locating signals of 153 khz, compensates for doppler shifts in the echo and hears ultrasonic frequencies up to 200 khz (neuweiler et al., 1984). the organ of corti was investigated qualitatively and quantitatively using the technique of semi-thin sectioning. some complementary ... | 1991 | 1880079 |

| a contribution to the ectoparasite fauna of bats (mammalia: chiroptera) in mindoro island, philippines: i. blood sucking diptera (nycteribiidae, streblidae) and siphonaptera (ischnopsyllidae). | new data on bat ectoparasites from mindoro island, philippines are reported. eighty-three individuals of ectoparasitic insects representing seven species of nyc-teribiidae and fve species of streblidae (both diptera), and one species of ischnopsyllidae (siphonaptera) were recorded from 11 bat species captured in naujan lake national park, mindoro oriental province, philippines. raymondia pagodarum is a new record for the country. eight species are also newly recorded for mindoro island, includin ... | 2016 | 32218804 |
| linkages between chiropteran diversity and ecosystem services for sustainable fragmented forest conservation. | this data article informs about chiropteran diversity, new records, ecosystem services and possible pathogen carriers in fragmented forests (sub-divided by utility corridors, man-made structures, untouched and secondary plantations) within districts setiu (setiu research station), hulu terengganu (saok and lasir waterfalls) and besut (gunung tebu forest reserve) of state terengganu, peninsular malaysia. these bats were captured using harp traps and mist nets that were set 10 m apart across flywa ... | 2018 | 30533456 |
