Pollinator behaviour has profound effects on plant mating. Pollinators are predicted to
minimise energetic costs during foraging bouts by moving between nearby flowers …

Bat pollination is one of the most recent pollination systems to have been discovered. While
recent studies have provided novel insight into bat-flower interactions, there are gaps in …

Urbanization is a widespread intense land use that generally results in biodiversity decline.
Among the taxa capable to adapt to urban landscapes, bats are particularly ubiquitous …

We undertook a comprehensive, critical review of literature concerning the distribution,
conservation status, and taxonomy of species of mammals endemic to the Cerrado and the …

Most extant species are survivors of the last climate change event 20,000 years ago. While
past events took place over thousands of years, current climate change is occurring much …

Bats frequently use caves as roosts due to higher environmental stability and protection.
However, species-specific ecological and physiological requirements and conditions of …

Nightly movements of bats have been described for only a handful of species around the
world. The lesser long-nosed bat (Leptonycteris yerbabuenae) is a migratory pollinator …

Abstract Background and Aims Nectar standing crop has a fundamental role in controlling
pollinator movements between flowers and individuals within a population. In bat pollination …

Semiarid regions experience conspicuous seasonal variations, especially related to
precipitation. Caves in these areas can be exceptions since they are less affected by dry …

The Brazilian savanna (Cerrado) is a biodiversity hotspot with high deforestation rates that
lead to extensive habitat changes, especially around protected areas (PAs). In our study, we …
