Small Tent‐Roosting Bats Promote Dispersal of Large‐Seeded Plants in a Neotropical Forest (2009, background): “Neotropical bats are widely recognized as effective seed dispersers for small-seeded pioneer trees during early stages of forest regeneration (Medellin & Gaona 1999, Bernard & Fenton 2003, Lobova & Mori 2004).”
Phyllostomid Bat Assemblage Structure in Amazonian Flooded and Unflooded Forests (2014, background): “For example, species of the genera Carollia and Artibeus may have a home range of above 1000 ha and perform flights of up to 2.5 km across different forest types (Bernard & Fenton 2003).”
Artificial light puts ecosystem services of frugivorous bats at risk (2014, background): “We used Sowell’s shorttailed bats because they are the primary disperser of pepper seeds (genus Piper), a key plant group during early succession in the Neotropics (Muscarella & Fleming 2007).”
Phyllostomid Bats of Lowland Amazonia: Effects of Habitat Alteration on Abundance (2007, background): “Moreover, capture of bats in any particular place may reflect use of habitats for roosting (Kalko et al. 1999, Bernard & Fenton 2003), foraging, or as a corridor for flight.”
Wing morphology of Neotropical bats: a quantitative and qualitative analysis with implications for habitat use (2014, background): “silvicolum (Gardner 1977; Reis and Peracchi 1987), and both species have a sit-and-wait hunting behaviour, which is commonly reported for carnivores and corroborated by telemetry data, which point to relatively small foraging areas close to their day roosts (Kalko et al. 1999; Bernard and Fenton 200”
Movements and Resource Selection of the Northern Long-eared Myotis (Myotis septentrionalis) in a Forest–Agriculture Landscape (2008, background): “…landscapes for bats is stressed by studies that document higher activity and captures of bats in woodlands or along wooded linear features (Bernard and Fenton 2003; Bianconi et al. 2006; Bontadina et al. 2002; Russ and Montgomery 2002; Walsh and Harris 1996; Wickramasinghe et al. 2003).”
Small‐Scale Fragmentation Effects on Local Genetic Diversity in Two Phyllostomid Bats with Different Dispersal Abilities in Panama (2009, background): “Mark–recapture data and radio tracking studies indicate that Neotropical bat species differ widely in their mobility (e.g., Bernard & Fenton 2003, Albrecht et al. 2007, Bonaccorso et al. 2007, Meyer et al. 2008).”
Phyllostomid bats of a fragmented landscape in the north-eastern Atlantic forest, Brazil (2006, background): “Furthermore, these species have small home range sizes with feeding sites often located within mature forests, and thus, show greater vulnerability to forest disruption (Bernard & Fenton 2003, Fenton et al. 1992, Kalko et al. 1999).”
The Response of Bats (Mammalia: Chiroptera) to Habitat Modification in a Neotropical Savannah (2017, background): “…capacity of bats enables them to travel over large distances (Aguiar, Bernard, & Machado, 2014; Arnone, Trajano, Pulcherio-Leite, & Passos, 2016; Bernard & Fenton, 2003) and to explore different phytophisiognomies as well as to explore the fragmented landscape of the Cerrado (Aguiar et al.,…”
