“…3-6). These relationships agree with most studies of morphology, karyotypes, and DNA sequences (Davis, 1975;Gardner, 1977;Peterson, 1968) although do contradict the morphological studies of Owen (1987) and Goodwin (1963).…”

“…The present study, the Wrst to examine V. melissa at the molecular level, aYrms previous studies supporting a sister relationship between V. melissa and V. pusilla (the latter species now divided into pusilla and thyone), to the exclusion of other yellow-eared bats of the genus Vampyriscus (Davis, 1975;Gardner, 1977;Peterson, 1968). Our separate and combined analyses of ND3-ND4 and cytochrome b sequences strongly support V. melissa as the basal lineage of genus Vampyressa, from which diverged the common ancestor of V. pusilla and V. thyone (Figs.…”

Presentamos información sobre la distribución geográfica, morfología y reproducción de Vampyriscus nymphaea en Colombia, basándonos en la revisión de especímenes museológicos de colecciones colombianas. Previamente la distribución de V. nymphaea en Colombia se consideraba restringida a las tierras bajas al occidente de la cordillera Occidental en la región Pacífico; en este trabajo confirmamos la presencia de esta especie en la región Caribe y en el nororiente de la cordillera Occidental de los Andes colombianos en el Bajo Río Cauca. La morfología externa y craneana de la especie fue homogénea y el análisis de dimorfismo sexual secundario de las poblaciones de la región Pacífico no mostró diferencias significativas, sin embargo la longitud de la tibia y la profundidad de la caja craneana son proporcionalmente mayores en los machos y el ancho zigomático en las hembras. Respecto a labiología reproductiva sugerimos que las poblaciones de V. nymphaea presentan un patrón poliéstrico sin picos definidos a lo largo del año.

In 1989 Guyana designated 3600km 2 of tropical rain forest as the 'Iwokrama Rain Forest Programme' (IRFP) for developing methods of sustainable forest utilization and for conserving biodiversity. Bat diversity was assessed in 5 km 2 of the IRFP area over a ten-week period. Effort totalled 22 400 m 2 mist-net hours during 26 nights, 227 m 2 harp-trap hours during 8 nights and 28 person days searching for roosts. This revealed 38 species of bats. In comparison with two other neotropical sites alpha diversity was high as shown by a Shannon diversity index of 1.30 for the 33 species taken in foraging areas by mist net and harp trap.Four forest types found here show some of the lowest floristic diversity in the neotropics. The high motility of bats allows them to exploit the range of forest types available locally, so avoiding constraints imposed within any one forest type.A list of bat species known from Guyana was compiled from the literature. A total of 96 species were found plus 17 unsupported records. The list is presented together with a further 45 species that potentially could occur. Our survey has shown that 45 of the 96 species recorded in Guyana (47%) are known from the IRFP area, suggesting that it provides a good representation of Guyana's bat fauna.
