their fine‐scale distributions often remain less known than other taxa (eg, plants, birds). Yet …

Abstract The Honduran white bat, Ectophylla alba (Allen 1982), is one of eight species
belonging to the family Phyllostomidae that exclusively roosts in tents. Due to its restricted …

Olfactory tracking generally sacrifices speed for sensitivity, but some fast-moving animals
appear surprisingly efficient at foraging by smell. Here, we analysed the olfactory tracking …

The plant genus Ficus is a keystone resource in tropical ecoystems. One of the unique
features of figs is the diversity of fruit traits, which in many cases match their various …

significantly contributing to dispersal of its seeds. The objective of this research was to …

Bats show the greatest variety of mating strategies in mammals. Social structure can be
influenced by roost characteristics, for example, if the roost is defendable and its availability …
