Consequences of a large-scale fragmentation experiment for Neotropical bats: disentangling the relative importance of local and landscape-scale effects (2016, methodology): “…by higher levels of dominance, results consistent with previous studies addressing the impacts of fragmentation on tropical bats (Cosson et al 1999; Meyer and Kalko 2008; Struebig et al 2008; Estrada-Villegas et al 2010) and other taxa at the BDFFP (Laurance et al 2006b; Ferraz et al 2007; Boyle…”
Effects of tropical forest fragmentation on aerial insectivorous bats in a land-bridge island system. (2010, methodology): “Acoustic surveys were conducted at the same sites used by Meyer and Kalko (2008) in an extensive mist-netting study with the exception of three islands that were not included here due to logistical reasons.”
Accounting for detectability improves estimates of species richness in tropical bat surveys (2011, unknown): “…expect detectability to vary between sampling years; however, several studies have noted seasonal differences in bat abundance (e.g. Stoner 2005; Meyer & Kalko 2008), and thus we predicted detection probability to differ among seasons; (v) mean species detectability is affected by sampling…”
Effects of human‐modified landscapes on taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic dimensions of bat biodiversity (2015, background): “…forest patch size or proportion of pasture for bats of Costa Rica were not consistent with landscape relationships observed in other Neotropical localities (Gorresen & Willig, 2004; Paraguay; Meyer & Kalko, 2008; Panama; Klingbeil & Willig, 2009, 2010; Peru; Avila-Cabadilla et al., 2012; Mexico).”
Responses of Tropical Bats to Habitat Fragmentation, Logging, and Deforestation (2015, background): “Recent studies provide evidence for widespread scale dependence in associations between landscape metrics and bat responses at the assemblage, population, ensemble, and species levels (Gorresen and Willig 2004; Meyer and Kalko 2008a; Pinto and Keitt 2008; Willig 2009, 2010; Henry et al.”
Urbanisation and Its Effects on Bats—A Global Meta-Analysis (2016, background): “Persistence of bats in fragmented landscapes has been associated with edge tolerance and mobility in phyllostomids (Meyer and Kalko 2008), and the predominant use of open space as foraging habitat for aerial insectivorous bats (Estrada-Villegas et al. 2010).”
Adaptability and vulnerability of high flying Neotropical aerial insectivorous bats to urbanization (2011, result): “It also corroborates responses of New World leaf-nosed bats (Phyllostomidae; Fenton et al., 1992; Medellin et al., 2000; Meyer & Kalko, 2008) towards forest disturbance, fragmentation and urbanization.”
Phyllostomid Bat Assemblage Structure in Amazonian Flooded and Unflooded Forests (2014, methodology): “All captured bats were assigned to a guild (frugivores, gleaning animalivores, nectarivores, omnivores, hematophagous, and aerial insectivores; sensu Fauth et al. (1996); Table S1) based on the classification system used by Giannini and Kalko (2004) and Meyer and Kalko (2008).”
Trait‐related responses to habitat fragmentation in Amazonian bats (2015, methodology): “In each plot, we quantified seven local-scale vegetation variables that may affect bat distribution and abundance (e.g. Meyer & Kalko 2008; Bobrowiec & Gribel 2010): (i) number of trees ≥10 cm diameter at breast height (d.b.h.), (ii) average d.b.h. of trees ≥10 cm, (iii) vertical stratification in…”
