Phyllostomid bats of a fragmented landscape in the north-eastern Atlantic forest, Brazil (2006, background): “This result is in accordance to the general notion that more disturbed habitats tend to show a lower number of Phyllostominae species than those more preserved tracts (Fenton et al. 1992, Schulze et al. 2000).”
Responses of Tropical Bats to Habitat Fragmentation, Logging, and Deforestation (2015, background): “At the assemblage level, studies that have compared fragmented and continuous forest in terms of species richness, diversity, and composition demonstrate inconsistent responses (Cosson et al. 1999; Schulze et al. 2000; Estrada and Coates-Estrada 2002; Faria 2006).”
Phyllostomid Bats of Lowland Amazonia: Effects of Habitat Alteration on Abundance (2007, background): “The pattern of response by bat populations to anthropogenic disturbance and successional change is related to species-specific aspects of their foraging ecology (Schulze et al. 2000; Gorresen & Willig 2004; Clarke et al. 2005a, b).”
Positive effects of forest fragmentation, independent of forest amount, on bat abundance in eastern Ontario, Canada (2011, background): “Some of these studies also suggest that forest fragmentation has a negative effect on bats (Cosson et al. 1999; Schulze et al. 2000), while others provide evidence of a weaker but potentially positive effect of fragmentation (Estrada and Coates-Estrada 2002; Lumsden and Bennett 2005).”
Consequences of a large-scale fragmentation experiment for Neotropical bats: disentangling the relative importance of local and landscape-scale effects (2016, background): “…United Kingdom 6Museu de Ciències Naturals de Granollers, Catalunya, Spain 7Department of Ecology/PPGE, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 8Department of Life Sciences, Imperial College London, London, United Kingdom *Correspondence: Ricardo Rocha; E-mail:…”
Roosting Requirements of Two Frugivorous Bats (Sturnira lilium and Arbiteus intermedius) in Fragmented Neotropical Forest1 (2003, background): “Sturnira lilium is typically the most abundant bat in disturbed areas and disperses seeds of early successional plants (Estrada et al. 1993, Brosset et al. 1996, Iudica & Bonaccorso 1997, Medellı́n et al. 2000, Ochoa 2000, Schulze et al. 2000).”
Guild-specific responses of bats to landscape composition and configuration in fragmented Amazonian rainforest (2009, background): “disturbed vs. undisturbed, Fenton et al . 1992; fragmented vs. continuous forest, Schulze et al . 2000 ) or simple indices of landscape composition (e.g.”
Conservation importance of limestone karst outcrops for Palaeotropical bats in a fragmented landscape (2009, background): “because of sampling- (Schulze et al., 2000) and edge-effects (Laurance et al.”
Species composition and reproductive phenology of bats in a tropical landscape at Los Tuxtlas, Mexico (2001, background): “Such a condition may be exacerbated by the small size and spatial separation of remnant forests, conditions that may impose high energy costs in foraging and increased predation risks (Hagan et al. 1996, MacClintock et al. 1977, Offerman et al. 1995, Schulze et al. 2000).”
Diversidade de morcegos (Mammalia, Chiroptera) em remanescentes florestais do município de Fênix, noroeste do Paraná, Brasil (2004, background): “…informação em toda Região Neotropical, estando a maioria dos estudos restritos à América do Norte (México, ESTRADA et al. 1993, ESTRADA & COATES-ESTRADA 2002), América Central (e.g. Guatemala, SCHULZE et al. 2000) e norte da América do Sul (Guiana Francesa, BROSSET et al. 1996, COSSON et al. 1999).”
Bats in continuous forest, forest fragments and in an agricultural mosaic habitat-island at Los Tuxtlas, Mexico (2002, background): “It has been suggested that bat tolerance to habitat loss and fragmentation may be related to their ability to traverse open areas to reach other forest fragments or other vegetation types and to use resources within the matrix (Law et al., 1999; Schulze et al., 2000).”
