Responses of Tropical Bats to Habitat Fragmentation, Logging, and Deforestation (2015, background): “Studies have found evidence for effects of both fragment area (Cosson et al. 1999; Struebig et al. 2008, 2011) and isolation (Estrada et al. 1993a; Meyer and Kalko 2008a, b) on population- and assemblage-level responses, whereas effects were weak or absent in others (Faria 2006; Pardini et al.…”
Consequences of a large-scale fragmentation experiment for Neotropical bats: disentangling the relative importance of local and landscape-scale effects (2016, result): “This general 435 pattern has also been repeatedly observed in tropical bat assemblages (Gorresen and Willig 2004; Meyer and Kalko 2008; Struebig et al 2008; Klingbeil and Willig 2009; ArroyoRodríguez et al 2016, in press; but see Cisneros et al 2015) and held true for our study.”
How will oil palm expansion affect biodiversity? (2008, background): “Because oil palm and other tree crops are unsuitable habitats for most forest species, plantations, where they form part of the landscape matrix, can act as a barrier to animal movements [50, 51 ].”
Effects of tropical forest fragmentation on aerial insectivorous bats in a land-bridge island system. (2010, background): “…that is in line with studies on phyllostomid bats in the Neotropics (Cosson et al., 1999; Faria, 2006; Meyer and Kalko, 2008) but that contrasts with findings on Paleotropical insectivorous bats by Struebig et al. (2008) who found that patch area, but not isolation, influenced species composition.”
Conservation importance of limestone karst outcrops for Palaeotropical bats in a fragmented landscape (2009, methodology): “Thus, while the conservation focus for tree cavity/foliage-roosting bats should be on retaining large areas of forest and maintaining connectivity (Struebig et al., 2008), landscape management needs to ensure protection of cave roosts as point resources for cave-roosting species.”
Mitigating the biodiversity impacts of oil palm development (2010, background): “Given that oil palm and other tree crops are unsuitable habitats for most forest species, plantations may act as a barrier to animal movements [25, 26].”
