Effects of human‐modified landscapes on taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic dimensions of bat biodiversity (2015, background): “The use of groundlevel mist nets effectively samples species from the family Phyllostomidae (Kalko, 1997), but may under-represent other families (Kalko & Handley, 2001).”
Adaptability and vulnerability of high flying Neotropical aerial insectivorous bats to urbanization (2011, background): “…space) or far from vegetation above the canopy (open space) (Schnitzler & Kalko, 2001), they go almost unaccounted in ecological monitoring studies, as they are rarely sampled by harp traps or mist nets (Kalko & Handley, 2001; Hourigan et al., 2008; MacSwiney et al., 2008; Flaquer et al., 2009).”
Who’s calling? Acoustic identification of Brazilian bats (2018, background): “Therefore, non-phyllostomid bat species have specialized echolocation calls and are able to easily detect and avoid mist-nets or fly too high to be captured by these (Kalko and Handley 2001; Marques et al. 2015).”
Effects of Habitat Conversion on Temporal Activity Patterns of Phyllostomid Bats in Lowland Amazonian Rain Forest (2009, background): “Species of bats that forage in the canopy use more open areas and exhibit stronger patterns of lunar phobia than do species of bats that forage in the understory (Kalko and Handley 2001).”
Effects of tropical forest fragmentation on aerial insectivorous bats in a land-bridge island system. (2010, background): “Although high forest strata have been intensively surveyed with mist nets (e.g. Kalko and Handley, 2001; Bernard, 2001; Meyer and Kalko, 2008), it is acknowledged that richness and abundance of aerial insectivores was underestimated because these bats avoid mist nets effectively or fly above the…”
Arboreal tropical forest vertebrates: current knowledge and research trends (2001, methodology): “Such interdisciplinary cooperation will benefit each discipline, and lead to a more comprehensive understanding of the tropical forest canopy ( Kalko & Handley 2001; Thery 2001).”
FRUGIVOROUS BATS IN ISOLATED TREES AND RIPARIAN VEGETATION ASSOCIATED WITH HUMAN-MADE PASTURES IN A FRAGMENTED TROPICAL LANDSCAPE (2003, background): “…of Artibeus lituratus, Phyllostomus discolor, and Chiroderma villosum, species that are classified as highly cluttered/gleaning frugivores of the canopy stratum (Bernard, 2001; Kalko and Handley, 2001), and Molossus rufus, an aerial insectivorous species that usually forages above canopy.”
The implications of food hardness for diet in bats (2003, background): “Within the three-dimensional habitat matrix, bats can specialize on a certain spatial component thereof, thus reducing or even avoiding competition with the rest of the community (Heithaus et al . 1975; Arlettaz, Perrin & Hausser 1997; Kalko 1997; Bernard, Albernaz & Magnusson 2001; Kalko & Handley”
