Stuck on a small tropical island: wide <i>in-situ</i> diversification of an urban-dwelling bat

2023-06-22

Abstract excerpt

Bats are often the only mammals naturally colonizing isolated islands and are thus an excellent model to study evolutionary processes of insular ecosystems. Here, we studied the Reunion free-tailed bat ( Mormopterus francoismoutoui ), an endemic species to Reunion Island that has adapted to urban settings. At regional scale, we investigated the evolutionary history of Mormopterus species, as well as on Reunion I...
