Research priorities for bat conservation in Southeast Asia: a consensus approach (2008, background): “…subfamilies Murininae and Kerivoulinae, combine wing morphologies and echolocation signal designs that confer eYcient foraging in densely vegetated habitats, but which are less eVective in the more open habitats typical of deforested landscapes (Kingston et al. 2003; Meijaard et al. 2005).”
The projected effects of climatic and vegetation changes on the distribution and diversity of Southeast Asian bats (2012, background): “Many Southeast Asian bat species are restricted to forest habitats, due to acoustic and morphological adaptations (Kingston et al., 2003).”
Species richness and structure of three Neotropical bat assemblages (2008, background): “As bat species richness is higher in Neotropical rainforests than in the Palaeotropics ( Kingston et al., 2003 ), TBS and the adjacent Yasuni National Park is likely to support one of the most species-rich bat assemblages in the world.”
