Genic differentiation and phylogenetic relationships within two New World bat genera

“…The allozymes suggest that the chromosomal rearrangements present in M. hirsuta occurred following divergence from the lineage which gave rise to both 114. megalotis and M. schmidtorum. Although M. schmidtorum has not as yet been G-banded, the standard karyotype for this species is very similar to that of M. megalotis [2]. Because this standard karyotype is unique in terms of the other Micronycteris taxa, it is possible that the rearrangements found in M. megalotis might represent shared derived characters also present in M. schmidtorum.…”

“…[2] for review) and, most recently, albumin immunological differences [3]. However, specific alignments within given genera remain tentative due to the lack of any detailed examination of species groups.…”

Morcegos capturados no município de Belo Horizonte, 1999-2003

“…A identificação dos morcegos foi feita pelo uso de chaves (Vizotto e Taddei, 1973;Baker et al, 1976;Reis et al, 1993;Emmons, 1997).…”

Brachyphylla cavernarum

“…Valdivieso and Tamsitt (1971) observed no hernoparasites in specimeris from St. Crois. h o endoparasites have been recorded from B ccrLernarum (Ubelaker et al, 1977).…”
