| allintoshius bioccai n. sp. (nematoda), a parasite of the bat eptesicus furinalis from paraguay, and new data on a. parallintoshius (araujo, 1940). | a new species of parasitic nematode (nematoda: trichostrongylina, heligmosomoidea) allintoshius bioccai n. sp., found in the small intestine of the vespertilionid bat eptesicus furinalis from paraguay, is described. the new species can be differentiated from a. urumiac (freitas and mendonça, 1960) by the absence of vulvar spines in females, and from a. nudicaudus (freitas and mendonça, 1963) by the shape of the spicules and the dorsal ray of the copulatory bursa. new data on the morphology and d ... | 2002 | 12404810 |
| wangiella dermatitidis isolated from bats in manaus brazil. | wangiella dermatitidis was isolated for the first time from the macroscopically asymptomatic internal organs of 2 phyllostomus discolor, 1 molossus molossus, 1 sturnira lilium and 1 myotis albescens among bats captured in the region of manaus, brazil. the dermatiaceous fungi isolated exhibited polymorphism at 25 and 37 degrees c, showing toruloid hyphae, integrated and terminal phialides without collarettes and yeast-like cells. the fungi did not hydrolyze gelatin, casein or starch. some ecologi ... | 1979 | 531715 |
| comparative study of prenatal development between myotis albescens (chiroptera: vespertilionidae) and eumops patagonicus (chiroptera: molossidae): the chorionic vesicle and extraembryonic membranes considerations. | we presented a comparative study of two species of south american bats, myotis albescens and eumops patagonicus, about prenatal development. this study was carried out using 60 specimens, which were measured and photographed, and the embryonic stage was assigned by the staging system for carollia perspicillata. we observed that the chorionic vesicle showed similarities in the disposition of the extraembryonic membranes, but they differed in characteristics of their yolk sac; in e. patagonicus, i ... | 2018 | 30312031 |

| bat flight with bad wings: is flight metabolism affected by damaged wings? | infection of north american bats with the keratin-digesting fungus geomyces destructans often results in holes and ruptures of wing membranes, yet it is unknown whether flight performance and metabolism of bats are altered by such injuries. i conducted flight experiments in a circular flight arena with myotis albescens and m. nigricans individuals with an intact or ruptured trailing edge of one of the plagiopatagial membranes. in both species, individuals with damaged wings were lighter, had a h ... | 2013 | 23348945 |
