RESUMENSe presentan seis nuevas localidades del murciélago blanco hondureño, en donde se redescubre nuevamente la especie para Honduras. Con los registros históricos y contemporáneos se modeló la distribución potencial del murciélago blanco. El mapa indica que el Ectophylla alba está distribuido principalmente en el bosque latifoliado de la Moskitia hondureña, en las áreas protegidas como la Reserva de la Biósfera del Río Plátano, los bosques de las montañas de Warunta, Mocorón y los territorios indígenas de Mabita y Rus Rus. El sitio está representado por el ecosistema del bosque tropical siempre verde latifoliado de tierras bajas moderadamente drenado y bien drenado. Estos bosques latifoliados forman un corredor continuo de cobertura boscosa que va desde el Norte de la Biósfera del Río Plátano hacia el Este del bosque latifoliado ripario y las sabanas de pino de Mabita y Rus Rus con un área aproximada de 4 775 Km2.Palabras clave: Moskita hondureña, bosque ripario, platanillos, distribución potencial, mapa binario. ABSTRACTSix new locations of the Honduran white bat, where rediscovered in Honduras. Historical and contemporary records were used for the potential distribution of the specie. The map indicates the Ectophylla alba is distributed mainly in the broadleaf forests of the Honduran Mosquitia, in the protected areas of Biosphere Reserve of Rio Plátano, the forests of Warunta, Mocorón and indigenous territories of Mabita and Rus Rus. The site is represented by the ecosystem evergreen broadleaf lowland tropical forest moderately drained and well drained. These broadleaf forests form a continuous corridor from northern of Biosphere of Rio Plátano to eastward broadleaf riparian forest and pine savannas of Mabita and Rus Rus with an area of approximately 4 775 Km2.Key words: Honduran Moskitia, riparian forest, platanillos, potential distribution, binary map.

Biosphere reserves are protected areas whose purpose is to combine conservation and sustainable development. However, their effectiveness has not been tested sufficiently, especially from an ecological and genetic approach. In this sense, the Peromyscus genus represents an excellent bioindicator to address these questions, due to its short life and high evolutionary rate and fecundity. For conservation managers, genetic structure can increase the rate of loss of genetic diversity because alleles exclusive of a subpopulation are more likely to disappear as a consequence of genetic drift in comparison with a panmictic population. Here we analyzed the abundance, movement distances, morphology/morphometry and genetic structure of 3 populations of Mexican deer mouse (Peromyscus mexicanus) located in different protected zones of La Tigra National Park (Honduras). Our results are consistent among the 3 approaches and showed the highest values of abundance, morphometry and genetic diversity in the population located at the core zone, whereas non‐statistically significant differences were found between buffer and transition zone populations, suggesting suitable effectiveness of conservation management in the core zone but a lack of ecological buffering function of the other zones. In addition, the low movement distances and high genetic structure among the studied populations provide evidence of poor conservation management in the buffer and transition zone. Thus, we discuss the utility of the novel methodology used in this work, combining morphometry, abundance and genetics, in testing the effectiveness of conservation strategies in biosphere reserves, and the value of the Peromyscus genus as a bioindicator.
