Trait-mediated filtering predicts phyllostomid bat responses to habitat disturbance in the Orinoco Llanos

2024-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Which functional traits allow a bat species to survive habitat disturbance? Empirical evidence regarding this question remains limited for many tropical regions despite their importance for conservation. Here, we used body mass, wing morphology, trophic level, and diet to identify which traits make phyllostomid bat species more vulnerable to human impacts in the Colombian Orinoco Llanos. Bats were sampled using mi...
