Bats are ecologically important mammals in tropical ecosystems; however, their populations face numerous environmental threats related to climate change, habitat loss, fragmentation, hunting, and emerging diseases. Thus, there is a pressing need to d... Read More about Long-term monitoring of tropical bats for anthropogenic impact assessment : gauging the statistical power to detect population change.

Effects of tropical forest fragmentation on aerial insectivorous bats in a land-bridge island system (2010)
Journal Article
Estrada-Villegas, S., Meyer, C. F., & Kalko, E. (2010). Effects of tropical forest fragmentation on aerial insectivorous bats in a land-bridge island system. Biological Conservation, 143(3), 597-608. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biocon.2009.11.009

Habitat fragmentation causes drastic changes in the biota and it is crucial to understand these modifications to mitigate its consequences. While studies on Neotropical bats have mainly targeted phyllostomid bats, impacts of fragmentation on the equa...
