The better to eat you with: functional correlates of tooth structure in bats (2011, methodology): “Phyllostomid bats offer a unique model system for answering these questions because their outstanding dietary radiation is accompanied by high diversity in tooth morphology (Free- man 2000; Fig.”
Mechanics of bite force production and its relationship to diet in bats (2010, unknown): “Within mammals, New World leaf-nosed bats (Family Phyllostomidae) provide an excellent system for studying the relationship among cranial morphology, feeding performance, and dietary ecology because they are exceptionally diverse in these three factors (e.g. Gardner 1977; Freeman 2000; Wetterer, Roc”
The implications of food hardness for diet in bats (2003, background): “The explosive, adaptive radiation of certain groups such as phyllostomid bats into previously unexplored trophic niches lies, at least partly, at the basis of the tremendous diversity and complexity of bat communities in the neotropics (Dumont 1999; Freeman 2000).”
The role of frugivory in the diversification of bats in the Neotropics (2012, background): “The current species diversity pattern of Phyllostomidae and of Pteropodidae, the other bat family in which frugivory evolved, could be a reliable indicator of the evolutionary success of the shift from insectivory to frugivory.”
Morphological Phylogeny of the Bat Genus Platyrrhinus Saussure, 1860 (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) with the Description of Four New Species (2005, methodology): “Freeman (2000) considered Carollia as the most ancestral and least specialized genus in the tribe Stenodermatini.”
