The pallid bat (Antrozous pallidus) is the second largest bat in Washington. The species ranges from central Mexico northward through western Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, southern and western Colorado, south-central Utah, western Nevada, California, Oregon, eastern Washington, western Idaho, and north to the southern Okanagan Valley of British Columbia (Orr 1954, Shryer and Flath 1980, Hermanson and O'Shea 1983, Verts and Carraway 1998).

Arizona bark scorpion venom resistance in the pallid bat, Antrozous pallidus
The pallid bat (Antrozous pallidus), a gleaning bat found in the western United States and Mexico, hunts a wide variety of ground-dwelling prey, including scorpions. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the pallid bat is resistant to scorpion venom, but no systematic study has been performed. Here we show with behavioral measures and direct injection of venom that the pallid bat is resistant to ven...
متن کاملDevelopment of functional organization of the pallid bat auditory cortex.
The primary auditory cortex is characterized by a tonotopic map and a clustered organization of binaural properties. The factors involved in the development of overlain representation of these two properties are unclear. We addressed this issue in the auditory cortex of the pallid bat. The adult pallid bat cortex contains a systematic relationship between best frequency (BF) and binaural proper...

متن کاملGABA shapes a systematic map of binaural sensitivity in the auditory cortex.
A consistent organizational feature of auditory cortex is a clustered representation of binaural properties. Here we address two questions. What is the intrinsic organization of binaural clusters and to what extent does intracortical processing contribute to binaural representation. We address these issues in the auditory cortex of the pallid bat. The pallid bat listens to prey-generated noise ...
متن کاملMulticentric malignant lymphoma in a pallid bat.
A 2.5-year-old, female pallid bat (Antrozous pallidus) was captured in Oregon (USA) in 1990 and later died in 1992. At the time of death, abdominal distension due to ascites, splenomegaly, and hepatomegaly, and a cheek mass were noted. Based on histologic examination of these tissues, a diagnosis of multicentric lymphoma was made. Retroviral particles were not found on electron microscopic exam...
