  • Quaternary Bat Diversity in the Dominican Republic
    AMERICAN MUSEUM NOVITATES Number 3779, 20 pp. June 21, 2013 Quaternary Bat Diversity in the Dominican Republic PAÚL M. VELAZCO,1 HANNAH O’NEILL,2 GREGG F. GUNNELL,3 SIOBHÁN B. COOKE,4 RENATO RIMOLI,5 ALFRED L. ROSENBErgER,1, 6 AND NANCY B. SIMMONS1 ABSTRACT The fossil record of bats is extensive in the Caribbean, but few fossils have previously been reported from the Dominican Republic. In this paper, we describe new collections of fossil bats from two flooded caves in the Dominican Republic, and summarize previous finds from the Island of Hispaniola. The new collections were evaluated in the context of extant and fossil faunas of the Greater Antilles to provide information on the evolution of the bat community of Hispaniola. Eleven species were identified within the new collections, including five mormoopids (Mormoops blainvillei, †Mormoops magna, Pteronotus macleayii, P. parnellii, and P. quadridens), five phyllostomids (Brachy- phylla nana, Monophyllus redmani, Phyllonycteris poeyi, Erophylla bombifrons, and Phyllops falcatus), and one natalid (Chilonatalus micropus). All of these species today inhabitant Hispaniola with the exception of †Mormoops magna, an extinct species previously known only from the Quaternary of Cuba, and Pteronotus macleayii, which is currently known only from extant populations in Cuba and Jamaica, although Quaternary fossils have also been recovered in the Bahamas. Differences between the fossil faunas and those known from the island today suggest that dispersal and extirpa- tion events, perhaps linked to climate change or stochastic events such as hurricanes, may have played roles in structuring the modern fauna of Hispaniola. 1 Division of Vertebrate Zoology (Mammalogy), American Museum of Natural History.

  • NT Brac District Committee Objection Report, 17 Dec 2020
    National Trust of the Cayman Islands Report of the Brac District Committee on the Proposed Daggaro Project The Brac District Committee of the National Trust of the Cayman Islands is strongly opposed to the Daggaro project to develop a private Black Hawk helicopter facility in Cayman Brac. The plans to date include a hangar, pad, administrative building, 8-foot security fence, and vehicle and plane access to the existing runway. The proposed location in the island’s West End, directly west of and adjacent to the West End Community Park, is especially sensitive, but more generally the project is not in keeping with the heritage values and natural, social, and cultural environment of Cayman Brac nor will it economically benefit the Brac or the Cayman Islands. The Brac District Committee has a number of objections to the project, which are summarized below. 1. Negative impacts on the natural environment 1.1 In general The proposed site of the Daggaro project would raze the only remaining remnant of tropical dry forest in the Brac’s far West End. In spite of its small area, this long, narrow triangle of intact woods contains a wealth of biodiversity and offers one of Cayman Brac’s main habitats for several significant species, especially the critically endangered Lesser Caymans Rock Iguana. This environmentally fragile remnant of native forest contains a broad, representative sample of plants and trees native to the Cayman Islands. The site also encompasses a small, significant tidal wetland (see West End Turtle Kraal and Nurse Smith Pond and Cave in section 2) that is part of the larger system of wetlands of international significance found in Cayman Brac’s West End.
