  • Mammals of Central Mexico Juan Cruzado Cortes and Venkat Sankar (Author; [email protected]) August 5-10, 2019
    Venkat Sankar 2019 1 Mammals of Central Mexico Juan Cruzado Cortes and Venkat Sankar (author; [email protected]) August 5-10, 2019 Beautiful scenery at Barrancas de Aguacatitla; Mexican Volcano Mouse; Mexican Ground Squirrel Introduction While searching for mammals in Oaxaca this March, Juan told me that a mammalogist friend of his in Tabasco, Dr. Rafael Avila Flores, had found some amazing bats in an area of karst near the state’s border with Chiapas. These included a number of impressive and distinctive species I’ve long wanted to see, like the Sword-nosed Bat and White-winged Vampire Bat. I had to visit, and with few breaks this summer thanks to academic commitments, this was the perfect choice for a long weekend’s trip. Juan suggested we spend a few days in Mexico City with another biologist friend, Melany Aguilar Lopez, to find several endemics of the Mexican Plateau, and then connect to Tabasco. And so a plan was formed!

  • Hairy-Legged Myotis Bat)
    UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Ecology Myotis keaysi (Hairy-legged Myotis Bat) Family: Vespertilionidae (Vesper or Evening Bats) Order: Chiroptera (Bats) Class: Mammalia (Mammals) Fig. 1. Hairy-legged Myotis bat, Myotis keaysi. [http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/372941, downloaded 28 March 2015] TRAITS. The hairy-legged Myotis is a type of mouse-eared bat and gets its name from the pattern of fur growth between its thighs and tail membrane along the legs to the feet. The fur on the back is very woolly and falls within the range of 4-6mm (Hernández-Meza et al., 2005). The upper fur varies greatly from pinkish grey to dark grey brown to even reddish brown and orange (Fig. 1) with darker base fur (Reid, 2009). Size of the body varies with the geographic location of the specimens; the smallest are native to Yucatan and the largest are found in Guatemala and Chiapas. The fur of the membrane connecting the forelimb and hind limb is typically sparse to thick and the membrane itself is typically black or dark brown (Hernández-Meza et al., 2005). The length of the skull is small to moderate in size, the width across the upper canine ranges from 3-4 mm. The length of the ear falls within the range of 12-14 mm with an inflated braincase and steeply sloping forehead. UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Ecology DISTRIBUTION. Myotis keaysi is one of many species of bats ranging from southern Mexico through Panama, the Yucatan Peninsula and Central America to northern Venezuela and Trinidad and Tobago (Hernández-Meza et al., 2005; Simmons, 2005) (Fig.

  • Mammal Diversity Before the Construction of a Hydroelectric Power Dam in Southern Mexico
    Animal Biodiversity and Conservation 42.1 (2019) 99 Mammal diversity before the construction of a hydroelectric power dam in southern Mexico M. Briones–Salas, M. C. Lavariega, I. Lira–Torres† Briones–Salas, M., Lavariega, M. C., Lira–Torres†, I., 2018. Mammal diversity before the construction of a hydroelectric power dam in southern Mexico. Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 42.1: 99–112, Doi: https:// doi.org/10.32800/abc.2019.42.0099 Abstract Mammal diversity before the construction of a hydroelectric power dam in southern Mexico. Hydroelectric power is a widely used source of energy in tropical regions but the impact on biodiversity and the environment is significant. In the Río Verde basin, southwestern of Oaxaca, Mexico, a project to build a hydroelectric dam is a potential threat to biodiversity. The aim of this work was to determine the parameters of mammals in the main types of vegetation in the Río Verde basin. We studied richness, relative abundances, and diversity of the community in general and among groups (bats, small mammals and medium and large–sized mammals). In the temperate forests, small mammals were the most diverse while medium–sized mammals and large mammals were the most diverse in land transformed by humans. As the Río Verde basin shelters 15 % of the land mammal species of Mexico, if the hydroelectric power dam is constructed, mitigation measures should include rescue programs, protection of the nearby similar forests, and population monitoring, particularly for endangered species (20 %) and endemic species (14 %). In a future scenario, whether the dam is constructed or not, management measures will be necessary to increase forest protection, vegetation corridors and corridors within the agricultural matrix in order to conserve the current high mammal diversity in the region.

  • Of Wild Animals Infected with Zoonotic Leishmania
    microorganisms Review A Systematic Review (1990–2021) of Wild Animals Infected with Zoonotic Leishmania Iris Azami-Conesa 1, María Teresa Gómez-Muñoz 1,* and Rafael Alberto Martínez-Díaz 2 1 Department of Animal Health, Faculty of Veterinary Sciences, University Complutense of Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] 2 Department of Preventive Medicine and Public Health, and Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine, University Autónoma of Madrid, 28029 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Leishmaniasis are neglected diseases caused by several species of Leishmania that affect humans and many domestic and wild animals with a worldwide distribution. The objectives of this review are to identify wild animals naturally infected with zoonotic Leishmania species as well as the organs infected, methods employed for detection and percentage of infection. A literature search starting from 1990 was performed following the PRISMA methodology and 161 reports were in- cluded. One hundred and eighty-nine species from ten orders (i.e., Carnivora, Chiroptera, Cingulata, Didelphimorphia, Diprotodontia, Lagomorpha, Eulipotyphla, Pilosa, Primates and Rodentia) were reported to be infected, and a few animals were classified only at the genus level. An exhaustive list of species; diagnostic techniques, including PCR targets; infected organs; number of animals explored and percentage of positives are presented. L. infantum infection was described in 98 wild species and L.(Viania) spp. in 52 wild animals, while L. mexicana, L. amazonensis, L. major and L. tropica Citation: Azami-Conesa, I.; were described in fewer than 32 animals each. During the last decade, intense research revealed new Gómez-Muñoz, M.T.; Martínez-Díaz, hosts within Chiroptera and Lagomorpha.

  • Mammalian Diversity in the Savanna from Peru, with Three New Addictions from Country

MEDINA¹⁴ KATERYN PINO¹ ALEXANDER PARI¹ GABRIEL LLERENA¹ HORACIO ZEBALLOS² EVARISTO LÓPEZ¹³ ABSTRACT Bahuaja Sonene National Park protects the unique sample of subtropical humid savannas in Peru, which are known as “Pampas del Heath” with 6,136 hectares of area. Many endan‑ gered species and/or endemic from savannas occur there, however studies about the diversity of mammals in Pampas del Heath are limited and only three assessments there have been carried out since mid‑1970s. Therefore we surveyed mammals in three habitat types of the Pampas del Heath (savanna, ecotonal area and forest) during late 2011. We used several methods of record for the different mammal groups including 1) capture techniques with mist nets, snap traps, Sherman traps, Tomahawk traps and pitfall traps, 2) and detection techniques direct by means of camera traps, visualization of mammals during long walk, observation of tracks and interviews to local people. Total capture efforts totalized 6,033 trap/nights, 136 mist‑net/nights and 108 cameras/nights. Sixty‑nine species of mammals were recorded: 33 in savanna, 33 in ecotonal area and 38 in forest. Sixteen species are new records for the Pampas del Heath and three are new records from Peru (Cryptonanus unduaviensis, Rhogeessa hussoni and Rhogeessa io). Analyses on the sampling effort, relative density, diversity and community structure of small mammals were made for the three habitats types.
