“…obs. ), these bromeliad species may provide nectar throughout the year as food for a local nectarivorous bat community, which comprises at least three species at the studied site (but see Coates et al 2017). Anoura geoffroyi seems to be present in the area for most of the year, using the numerous caves for roosting.…”

Bromeliads going batty: pollinator partitioning among sympatric chiropterophilous Bromeliaceae

et al. 2019

Pre-pollination mechanisms for isolation among sympatric bat-pollinated plants are largely unknown. We investigated the mechanisms for reproductive segregation between four sympatric chiropterophilous bromeliads in Veracruz, Mexico. With ex situ and in situ manual pollination treatments we determined the breeding system by assessing fruiting and seedling success and sampled bat visitors using mist-nets and infrared cameras. Bromeliads showed staggered flowering, different pollen deposition sites on the body of the pollinator and differences in the reward offered. These traits may have evolved to reduce the competitive costs of sharing pollinators while providing a constant supply of food for the nectarivorous bat community.

“…Our study highlights the importance of continued mammalian surveys in the Neotropics. In Los Tuxtlas, most of the small mammal sampling efforts have been conducted on lower and mid elevation range habitats, close to well-communicated towns and rural communities ( Estrada et al 1994 , González-Christen 2008 , Coates et al 2017 ). Interestingly, there is a consistent absence of records of Cryptotis nelsoni in these lower and mid elevation sites, possibly reflecting true absences.…”

The Nelson´s small-eared shrew, Cryptotis nelsoni (Merriam, 1895), is a critically endangered species, endemic to cloud forests in Los Tuxtlas, a mountain range along the Gulf of Mexico coast. This species is only known from the type locality and its surroundings. Here we present new records that extend its distribution approximately 7 km southeast of the type locality and report more specimens near to the type locality. We also identified climatically suitable areas for C. nelsoni using ecological niche modelling and investigated the sampling bias to identify poorly sampled areas in Los Tuxtlas. We suggest that the scarcity of records in other areas with suitable climatic conditions throughout Los Tuxtlas is a consequence of incomplete surveys. We strongly highlight the importance of continuing surveying this critically endangered shrew using more efficient sampling techniques to better understand its current distribution and conservation status. Despite all known localities occurring inside Los Tuxtlas Biosphere Reserve, deforestation and climate change still pose current and future threats to this species.

“…It was known from just 2 specimens collected by Auguste Salle in 1857 in the same locality, San Ándres Tuxtla (18°26′ N, 095°12′ W) and deposited in the collections of the British Museum of Natural History Museum London, UK (Arroyo-Cabrales and Ramos Rivera 2017, Coates et al 2017). González et al (2002) erroneously reported P. centralis from the locality of "El Conejo" (19°31′ N, 097°08′ W, alt.…”

“…Molossid species occurring in the state of Veracruz are underrepresented in scientific collections; the only NOTES ON GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION records of P. c. centralis in Veracruz are based on 2 museum specimens, both collected in the same locality in 1895 (Coates et al 2017). Natural history information on P. centralis is scarce (Eger 2008).…”

The diversity of bats in the Mexican state of Veracruz is high, comprising 89 species. Many of these species deserve special attention because either they remain underrepresented in collections, or they are known from fewer than 5 localities. We confirm the presence of the Big Crested Mastiff Bat (Promops centralis) in Veracruz, and provide additional occurrence records that extend the known geographic distribution of this species by 216 km to the north from previously known sites. Our new record represents the northernmost record of the species on the coastal plain of the Gulf of Mexico. Our findings highlight the presence of gaps in past surveys of mammalian diversity in Veracruz.
