A big leap from its normal distribution, two Hahn’s short-tailed fruit bats (Carollia subrufa) reported in far southwestern Costa Rica

چکیده

A range extension for Hahn's short-tailed fruit bat, Carollia subrufa, is reported which extends the distribution of species from Pacific Dry Forest into Moist ecoregion. This raises possibility that may be more widely distributed in Costa Rica than currently supposed, adding almost 30,000 km 2 potential range.

An ecologically - significant range extension for Hahn ’ s short - tailed fruit bat (

A range extension for Hahn’s short-tailed fruit bat, Carollia subrufa, is reported which extends the distribution of the species from the Pacific Dry Forest into the Pacific Moist Forest ecoregion. This raises the possibility that the species may be more widely distributed in Costa Rica than currently supposed, adding almost 30,000 km of potential range.

Echolocation call intensity and directionality in flying short-tailed fruit bats, Carollia perspicillata (Phyllostomidae).

The directionality of bat echolocation calls defines the width of bats' sonar "view," while call intensity directly influences detection range since adequate sound energy must impinge upon objects to return audible echoes. Both are thus crucial parameters for understanding biosonar signal design. Phyllostomid bats have been classified as low intensity or "whispering bats," but recent data indic...

Hoxd13 expression in the developing limbs of the short-tailed fruit bat, Carollia perspicillata.

Bat forelimbs are highly specialized for sustained flight, providing a unique model to explore the genetic programs that regulate vertebrate limb diversity. Hoxd9-13 genes are important regulators of stylopodium, zeugopodium, and autopodium development and thus evolutionary changes in their expression profiles and biochemical activities may contribute to divergent limb morphologies in vertebrat...
