Zoogeography of Antillean Bats
Analysis of the bat fauna of the Antillean Islands suggest that the most probable source of invnsion of the islands by bats is by overwaLer dispersal. The bat fauDa of ·the Greater Antilles is unique, a percentage of endemism on each island being over 50 percent except for the Virgin Islands which has 33 percent endemics. The richest bat fauna in the Antilles is on Cuba (32 species) followed by...

متن کاملEcology and Zoogeography of Parasites
Parasitism is a ubiquitous phenomenon that is probably as old as heterotrophic organisms themselves. It is one of the major types of symbiotic relationship between organisms of different species. The development of the biological sciences brought about a broader definition of parasitism. By the end of the nineteenth century, it was known that parasites thrive at the expense of their hosts and u...

متن کاملThe Zoogeography of Mammalian Basal Metabolic Rate.
Zoogeographical effects on the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of 487 mammal species were analyzed using conventional and phylogenetically independent ANCOVA. Minimal BMR variance occurred at a "constrained body mass" of 358 g, whereas maximum variance occurred at the smallest and largest body masses. Significant differences in BMR were identified for similar-sized mammals from the six terrestrial z...
