Presentamos información sobre la distribución geográfica, morfología y reproducción de Vampyriscus nymphaea en Colombia, basándonos en la revisión de especímenes museológicos de co- lecciones colombianas. Previamente la distribución de V. nymphaea en Colombia se consideraba res- tringida a las tierras bajas al occidente de la cordillera Occidental en la región Pacífico; en este trabajo confirmamos la presencia de esta especie en la región Caribe y en el nororiente de la cordillera Occiden- tal de los Andes colombianos en el Bajo Río Cauca. La morfología externa y craneana de la especie fue homogénea y el análisis de dimorfismo sexual secundario de las poblaciones de la región Pacífico no mostró diferencias significativas, sin embargo la longitud de la tibia y la profundidad de la caja craneana son proporcionalmente mayores en los machos y el ancho zigomático en las hembras.

  • Original Article Bats Are a Potential Reservoir of Pathogenic Leptospira
    Original Article Bats are a potential reservoir of pathogenic Leptospira species in Colombia Jose Mateus1, Natalia Gómez1, María Teresa Herrera-Sepúlveda1,2, Marylin Hidalgo1, Jairo Pérez- Torres2, Claudia Cuervo1 1 Facultad de Ciencias, Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Bogotá, Colombia 2 Unidad de Ecología y Sistemática (UNESIS). Laboratorio de Ecología Funciona, Facultad de Ciencias, Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Bogotá, Colombia Abstract Introduction: Bats have become an epidemiologically significant source of pathogenic microorganisms, such as leptospires, the causative agents of leptospirosis. However, little information exists about bats and their potential role as a reservoir of pathogenic Leptospira spp. in Colombia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of pathogenic Leptospira spp. in the kidneys of bats from the Caribbean region of Colombia deposited in the collection of mammals of the Museo Javeriano de Historia Natural (MPUJ-MAMM). Methodology: DNA was extracted from twenty-six kidney samples from a total of 13 species of bats captured in Colombia. First, 16S ribosomal RNA conventional PCR was performed to detect the presence of Leptospira spp. Then, in samples that tested positive, LipL32 PCR was performed to detect pathogenic Leptospira spp. by sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. Results: The presence of Leptospira spp. was observed in 7/26 (26.9%) bats from the following 6 species: Carollia perspicillata, Glossophaga soricina, Dermanura phaeotis, Uroderma bilobatum, Desmodus rotundus, and Lophostoma silvicolum, and pathogenic Leptospira spp. were detected in 4/26 samples (15.4%). Conclusions: This study suggests that bats present in the Caribbean region of Colombia could be potential reservoirs of pathogenic Leptospira spp. Key words: Leptospira spp.; bats; zoonotic disease; leptospirosis.

This is patent in 30 the subfamily Stenodermatinae, where many species build tents with plant leaves for 31 communal roosting at daytime. On the basis that tents offer rich light conditions by partly 32 allowing sunlight to pass through the leaves and this makes that yellow coloration probably 33 provides camouflage benefits to tent-roosting bats, that gregariousness facilitates visual 34 communication, and that all Stenodermatinae bats possess retinal L-cones that allow the 35 perception of long-wavelength light and have a frugivorous diet from which carotenoids are 36 obtained, we hypothesized that tent-roosting may have driven the evolution of yellow skin 37 coloration in this group of bats.

Neotropical Biology and Conservation 15(3): 379–390. https://doi.org/10.3897/ neotropical.15.e53766 Abstract In Central America, Vampyressa is represented by two species, Vampyressa elisabethae and V. thyone. The latter is the only representative of the genus in Honduras and the most recent record was in 2007. Six sur- veys were carried out in the Departments of Cortés, Atlántida and Gracias a Dios.

  • Ecological Morphology of Neotropical Bat Wing Structures
    Zoological Studies 59:60 (2020) doi:10.6620/ZS.2020.59-60 Open Access Ecological Morphology of Neotropical Bat Wing Structures Dennis Castillo-Figueroa Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Unidad de Ecología y Sistemática (UNESIS), Bogotá 1001000,1 Colombia. E-mail: [email protected] Received 5 May 2020 / Accepted 17 September 2020 / Published 20 November 2020 Communicated by Chi-Chien Kuo Morphology has a direct influence on animal fitness. Studies addressing the identification of patterns and variations across several guilds are fundamental in ecomorphological research. Wings are the core of ecological morphology in bats; nevertheless, individual bones and structures that support the wing, including metacarpals, phalanges and the length of digits, have rarely been the subject of comprehensive research when studying wing morphology. Here, I analyzed morphological variations of wing structures across 11 bat guilds and how individual bone structures are correlated to diet, foraging mode and habitat use. I obtained wing measurements from 1512 voucher specimens of 97 species. All the specimens analyzed came from the Mammalian Collection at the Museo Javeriano de Historia Natural of Pontificia Universidad Javeriana (MPUJ-MAMM) (Bogotá, Colombia). Positive correlations between size and the length of the third and fifth digit were detected. Bat guilds that capture their preys using aerial strategy in uncluttered habitats had longer third digits but short fifth digits compared to guilds that rely on gleaning strategy and forage in highly cluttered space. Although terminal phalanges were shown to be important structures for guild classification, metacarpals were strongly related to aerial foragers from uncluttered habitats because of their potential role in flight performance and ecological adaptations.
