We analyzed the phylogenetic relationships of all eleven currently recognized species of
large Artibeus using the cytochrome b mitochondrial gene. The topology from a maximum …

We studied molecular and morphological variation in small fruit-eating bats (Artibeus) in
northern South America to establish species boundaries, evolutionary relationships, and …

The phylogenetics and phylogeography of the Jamaican fruit-eating bat (Artibeus
jamaicensis) were examined based on analysis of DNA sequence variation in the …

Approximately 24 species classified in three groups (Artibeus, Dermanura, and Koopmania)
compose Subtribe Artibeina, an assemblage of New World leaf-nosed bats (Phyllostomidae) …

Size-standardized craniometric variation was investigated among species of the genus
Artibeus. Eleven extant and one extinct species were examined using geometric and linear …

DNA sequences from mitochondrial tRNA genes, the light strand replication site, and a
region of the 12S rRNA gene were used to test the hypothesis that the unusual Antillean …

Molecular phylogenetics has rapidly established the evolutionary positions of most major
mammal groups [1, 2], yet analyses have repeatedly failed to agree on that of bats (order …

Understanding mechanisms involved in speciation can be challenging, especially when
hybridization or introgression blurs species boundaries. In bats, resolving relationships of …

According to its back cover, the book Bats is intended to provide “a guided tour of the
nocturnal world of bats,” illustrating the major aspects of bat diversity, biology, ecology, and …

Fruit-eating bats of the genus Artibeus are widely distributed across the Neotropics and are
one of the most recently evolved assemblages of the family Phyllostomidae. Although the …
