C. ABSTRACT: As a result of a systematic review of nectar feeding bats in the genus Lonchophylla (Phyllostomidae) deposited in the scientific collections of the Instituto de Ciencias Naturales (ICN) in Bogotá and the Museo de Historia Natural of the Universidad del Cauca (MHNUC) in Popayán, we report range extensions for three Colombian species. Lonchophylla cadenai is reported from Pueblo Rico, Risaralda, representing an increase in both altitudinal and latitudinal ranges; L. handleyi is reported from Cueva de los Guácharos, Huila, confirming the presence of this taxon in Colombia and representing its northernmost known record; and L. pattoni is reported from Leticia, Amazonas, which constitutes the third known collecting locality for this taxon and represents the northernmost known record for the species. In addition, an annotated list of all Lonchophylla specimens present in the two studied collections is included. RESUMEN: Extensiones en los rangos de distribución y notas taxonómicas sobre murciélagos del género Lonchophylla (Phyllostomidae) de Colombia. Como resultado de una revisión sistemática de murciélagos nectarívoros del género Lonchophylla (Phyllostomidae) depositados en las colecciones científicas del Instituto de Ciencias Natu- rales (ICN) en Bogotá y el Museo de Historia Natural de la Universidad del Cauca (MHNUC) en Popayán, reportamos extensiones en los rangos de distribución para tres especies. Lonchophylla cadenai es registrada de Pueblo Rico, Risaralda, y representa un incremento tanto en su rango altitudinal como latitudinal; L. handleyi es registrada para la Cueva de los Guácharos, Huila, lo cual confirma la presencia de este taxón en Colombia, siendo esta la localidad más al norte conocida para esta especie; y L. pattoni es registrada para Leticia, Amazonas, la cual constituye el tercer registro conocido para esta especie y el registro más norte de su distribución. Adicionalmente, se incluye una lista anotada de los ejemplares del género Lonchophylla revisados en estas dos colecciones. Key words: Bats. Distribution. Lonchophyllinae. Neotropics.

  • Neoichnology of Bats: Morphological, Ecological, and Phylogenetic Influences on Terrestrial Behavior and Trackmaking Ability Within the Chiroptera
    NEOICHNOLOGY OF BATS: MORPHOLOGICAL, ECOLOGICAL, AND PHYLOGENETIC INFLUENCES ON TERRESTRIAL BEHAVIOR AND TRACKMAKING ABILITY WITHIN THE CHIROPTERA BY MATTHEW FRAZER JONES Submitted to the graduate degree program in Geology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Advisory Committee: ______________________________ Chairperson Stephen T. Hasiotis ______________________________ Co-chair David A. Burnham ______________________________ Robert M. Timm Date Defended: April 8, 2016 The Thesis Committee for MATTHEW FRAZER JONES certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: NEOICHNOLOGY OF BATS: MORPHOLOGICAL, ECOLOGICAL, AND PHYLOGENETIC INFLUENCES ON TERRESTRIAL BEHAVIOR AND TRACKMAKING ABILITY WITHIN THE CHIROPTERA ______________________________ Chairperson: Stephen T. Hasiotis ______________________________ Co-chairperson: David A. Burnham Date Approved: April 8, 2016 ii ABSTRACT Among living mammals, bats (Chiroptera) are second only to rodents in total number of species with over 1100 currently known. Extant bat species occupy many trophic niches and feeding habits, including frugivores (fruit eaters), insectivores (insect eaters), nectarivores (nectar and pollen-eaters), carnivores (predators of small terrestrial vertebrates), piscivores (fish eaters), sanguinivores (blood eaters), and omnivores (eat animals and plant material). Modern bats also demonstrate a wide range of terrestrial abilities while feeding, including: (1) those that primarily feed at or near ground level, such as the common vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus) and the New Zealand short-tailed bat (Mystacina tuberculata); (2) those rarely observed to feed from or otherwise spend time on the ground; and (3) many intermediate forms that demonstrate terrestrial competency without an obvious ecological basis. The variation in chiropteran terrestrial ability has been hypothesized to be constrained by the morphology of the pelvis and hindlimbs into what are termed types 1, 2, and 3 bats.

Lodges were booked online beforehand, either directly on the lodge website or through Booking.com. These were all booked separately except for Danta/La Leona/Saladero which was a three lodge package for which we were collected at Puerto Jimenez and returned there afterward. We hired a car from Alamo for the first route ending at Puerto Jimenez, and then again a week later after returning from Danta/La Leona/Saladero for the second route. Alamo is the only big name car rental company in Puerto Jimenez as far as I know. We (my wife and I) landed at the San Jose airport around lunch time. After drawing colones from one of the ATMs which would be useful for certain purchases, we then bought a SIM card with the intention of using the Waze navigation app. Unfortunately the network was down so the card would only be activated the next day. We therefore took the GPS option on the hire car, but this worked well enough. A shuttle was available to take us from the Alamo booth at the San Jose airport to their offices a few kilometres away. This was a pleasant surprise because we did not know about this service and had planned to do so by taxi. Our experience with Alamo was quite satisfactory overall although both the cars we used were far from new (not serious) and it now appears to me that we may have been charged a collection fee that was never discussed with us (serious).

Creating a Linnaean classification for this clade has been difficult and controversial. In two companion papers, we here propose a revised classification drawing on the strengths of genetic and morphological data and reflecting current ideas regarding phylogenetic relationships within this monophyletic clade. We recognize 11 subfamilies (Macrotinae, Micronycterinae, Desmodontinae, Phyllostominae, Glossophaginae, Lonchorhininae, Lonchophyllinae, Glyphonycterinae, Carolliinae, Rhinophyllinae, and Stenodermatinae), 12 tribes (Diphyllini, Desmodontini, Macrophyllini, Phyllostomini, Vampyrini, Glossophagnini, Brachyphyllini, Choeronycterini, Lonchophyllini, Hsunycterini, Sturnirini, and Stenodermatini), and nine subtribes (Brachyphyllina, Phyllonycterina,

Carrera 30 nº 45-03, edificio 425, oficina 110. Bogotá, Colombia. Email: [email protected] (CMB), [email protected] (HLA). * Corresponding author The study of interaction networks between species is a subject that has drawn increasing attention in recent decades, especially in inves- tigations involving relationships between plants and pollinators or seed dispersers. In the Neotropics, bats of the subfamily Glossophaginae show morphological modifications for a specialized diet consisting of nectar and pollen, but opportunistic species belonging to other subfami- lies that consume floral resources (nectar and pollen) have also been identified. This study describes for the first time the interactions between nectarivorous bats in the Andean region of Colombia from the identification of pollen associated with the bat species inhabiting the protected area “Reserva Forestal Bosque de Yotoco (RFBY)”. Bats were captured with mist nets; a pollen sample was collected from each specimen by con- tact with glycerin gelatin, and pollen samples were mounted on slides. In addition, plant material of the blooming species that displayed the syndrome of chiropterophyly was collected to build a reference pollen collection. For the analysis, we used Levin’s standardized niche breadth (BA), the relative frequency of resources (Fi), and the Resource Importance Value Index (RIVI).

BA KER AB STRACT In the past decade, seven new species and one new genus have been described in the Lonchophyllinae (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae), increasing the number of recognized taxa in the subfamily to four genera and 18 species. During this time, three studies, both morphologic and genetic, indicated the genus Lonchophylla was paraphyletic with respect to other genera in the subfamily. Using tissues from museum voucher specimens, including the holotypes of specimens of Xeronycteris vieirai and Lonchophylla pattoni, issues related to the previous paraphyletic assemblages were addressed. A combination of mitochondrial (Cytb), nuclear data (Fgb-I7, TSHB-I2), chromosome diploid and fundamental numbers, and morphologic characters was used to determine whether all species of Lonchophylla share a common ances- tor after diverging from other genera in the subfamily. Based on gene sequence data, a basal, monophyletic, statistically supported radiation within the subfamily Lonchophyllinae was observed in all phylogenetic analyses.
