Phyllostomid Bats of Lowland Amazonia: Effects of Habitat Alteration on Abundance

2007-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Habitat fragmentation and conversion are among the human activities that pose the greatest threat to species persistence and conservation of biodiversity. This is particularly true in the Neotropics, where bats represent important components of biodiversity from taxonomic and functional perspectives, and provide critical ecosystem services (e.g., seed dispersal and pollination). We assessed the degree to which con...
