G- and C-Banding Chromosomal Studies of Bats of the Family Emballonuridae
G- AND C-BANDING CHROMOSOMAL STUDIES OF BATS OF THE FAMILY EMBALLONURIDAE CRAIG S. HOOD AND ROBERT J. BAKER Department of Biological Sciences and The Museum, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX 79409 Present address of CSH: Department of Biological Sciences, Loyola University, New Orleans, LA 70118 ABSTRACT.—Extent and nature of chromosomal change among nine species representing six genera (Saccopteryx, Rhynchonycteris, Diclidurus, Balantiopteryx, Cormura, and Taphozous) were examined using data from G- and C-banded chromosomes. Heterochromatin was restricted to centromeric regions in most taxa; extensive additions of C-positive material occurred in Bal- antiopteryx and Cormura. Comparisons of G-bands of euchromatic arms revealed considerable variation in G-band pattern and imply extensive chromosomal evolution among emballonurid species. Outgroup comparisons of G-band karyotypes proposed as primitive for several families of bats failed to reveal conserved G-band patterns, thus limiting the usefulness of differentially stained chromosomal data for resolving phylogenetic relationships of the Emballonuridae. The karyotype of Cormura brevirostris includes an extraordinarily large X chromosome that is mostly euchromatic. Evolution of the X chromosome and the nature of the sex-determining system in Cormura are unclear, but the species appears to possess a unique sex chromosome mechanism. The bat family Emballonuridae contains 13 genera and about 50 species and has a broad, pantropical distribution (Corbet and Hill, 1980; Hill and Smith, 1983). From both a systematic and cytogenetic standpoint these bats represent one of the least understood chiropteran families. With the exception of a G-band figure presented in Baker et al. (1982) for Saccopteryx canes- cens, published chromosomal data are limited to nondifferentially-stained karyotypes for 13 species representing 9 genera (Baker et al., 1982, and references therein; Harada et al., 1982; Ray-Chaudhuri et al., 1971). -

A lo- MD 21045, U.S.A. gistic regression found that adults were bitten around four times more often than children (OR = 3 Instituto de Salud 3.75, CI 95%: 1.46-9.62, p = 0.036).

Mammal Watching in Northern Mexico Vladimir Dinets
Mammal watching in Northern Mexico Vladimir Dinets Seldom visited by mammal watchers, Northern Mexico is a fascinating part of the world with a diverse mammal fauna. In addition to its many endemics, many North American species are easier to see here than in USA, while some tropical ones can be seen in unusual habitats. I travelled there a lot (having lived just across the border for a few years), but only managed to visit a small fraction of the number of places worth exploring. Many generations of mammologists from USA and Mexico have worked there, but the knowledge of local mammals is still a bit sketchy, and new discoveries will certainly be made. All information below is from my trips in 2003-2005. The main roads are better and less traffic-choked than in other parts of the country, but the distances are greater, so any traveler should be mindful of fuel (expensive) and highway tolls (sometimes ridiculously high). In theory, toll roads (carretera quota) should be paralleled by free roads (carretera libre), but this isn’t always the case. Free roads are often narrow, winding, and full of traffic, but sometimes they are good for night drives (toll roads never are). All guidebooks to Mexico I’ve ever seen insist that driving at night is so dangerous, you might as well just kill yourself in advance to avoid the horror. In my experience, driving at night is usually safer, because there is less traffic, you see the headlights of upcoming cars before making the turn, and other drivers blink their lights to warn you of livestock on the road ahead. -
