Phylogenetic methods in combination with divergence time estimation can reveal biogeo- graphical centres of origin, differentiate between hypotheses of vicariance and dispersal, and reveal the directionality of dispersal events. Despite their power, however, phylo- genetic methods can sometimes yield patterns that are compatible with multiple, equally well-supported biogeographical hypotheses. In such cases, additional approaches must be integrated to differentiate among conflicting dispersal hypotheses. Here, we use a synthetic approach that draws upon the analytical strengths of coalescent and population genetic methods to augment phylogenetic analyses in order to assess the biogeographical history of Madagascar’s Triaenops bats (Chiroptera: Hipposideridae). Phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial DNA sequence data for Malagasy and east African Triaenops reveal a pattern that equally supports two competing hypotheses.

Farangis Ghassemi, M.S., Hosein Kargar, M.S., Azadeh Nemati, Ph.D.; The study of bat fauna in the south part of Iran: A case study of Jahrom Abstract Bats with nearly 1250 species are a second largest group of mammals and play ecological and economic role in their community. The forgiver bat, disperse seeds and pollinate flowers by feeding on fruit, pollen and nectar and insectivore bat by feeding pest plants playing a significant role in biological defense. Bat populations are declining locally and continentally, due to habitat loss and roost disturbances. To gather basic distributional, ecological data and on each species and recognize the economic benefits of them, seeks to inventory and manage species and habitats are very necessary to conserve bats. Result showed that research station (Jahrom) is area with greater diversity of bats. This local (Jahrom) was agricultural area with richness flora (Palm, Ziziphus, Ficus and Citrus orchards), diversity of insect and warm climate.
