“…Microchiropterans are the most species‐rich mammalian suborder, representing over 18% of all extant mammal species (Simmons et al., 2005), and bats are the most ecologically radiated mammal taxon, making a disproportionally high contribution to local mammal species richness (Wilson, 1974). This reflects the fact that bat species occupy the vast majority of functional groups of all vertebrates, from hypercarnivores to strictly haematophagous (blood‐feeding) species, and even folivores (Duque‐Márquez et al., 2019; Eisenberg, 1981). The widespread bat adaptive radiation directly reflects their ecomorphological functional traits, which can lead to high functional diversity within this group.…”

“…No planalto, foi registrada em matas secas e semidecíduas (Camargo et al, 2009). Consome principalmente frutos, mas também artrópodes, pólen, néctar e folhas (Zortéa & Mendes, 1993;Duque-Márquez et al, 2019). Dispersa sementes grandes, derrubadas sob poleiros de alimentação, assim como sementes pequenas, ingeridas de plantas pioneiras (M. Marques & Fischer, 2009;Munin et al, 2012;.…”

“…Sin embargo, no todos los mamíferos herbívoros que consumen hojas presentan dicha especialización; los murciélagos mastican las hojas, engullen la fracción líquida para aprovechar algunos nutrientes y finalmente expulsan los restos de fibras en forma de "pellets" (cúmulos de hojas) (Lowry, 1989;Kunz & Ingalls, 1994;Bobrowiec & Cunha, 2010;Cordero-Schmidt et al, 2016). Se ha reportado que los murciélagos consumen hojas para obtener proteínas, minerales, metabolitos secundarios y agua, que necesitan para abastecer sus demandas energéticas (Kunz & Ingalls, 1994;Kunz & Díaz, 1995;Ruby et al, 2000;Nelson et al, 2005;Duque-Márquez et al, 2019).…”
