Figure 2. A in Roosting habits of disk-winged bats, especially Thyroptera discifera

Figure 2. A "morado" banana (red banana in English, Musa acuminata) in a patch that also includes plantains near La Paloma Lodge at Drake Bay, Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica. Portions of shredded dead leaves hanging from the trunk roll back on themselves to create dark, cone-shaped,roosting sites for bats. The top arrow points to where the colony of perhaps nine disk-winged bats, Thyroptera discifera, was observed roosting for more than a month during February−March 2021. The lower arrow shows where a single individual was found roosting for a single day. Photograph taken on 7 March 2021 by Gómez.

Data for: Historical and contemporary processes drive global phylogenetic structure across geographical scales: Insights from bat communities

<p><strong>Aim</strong>: Patterns of evolutionary relatedness among co-occurring species are driven by scale-dependent contemporary and historical processes. Yet, we still lack a detailed understanding of how these drivers impact the phylogenetic structure of biological communities. Here, we focused on bats – one of the most speciose and vagile groups of mammals – and test the predictions of three general biogeographical hypotheses that are particularly relevant to understanding how paleoclimatic stability, local diversification rates, and geographical scales shaped their present-day phylogenetic community structure.</p> <p><strong>Location</strong>: Worldwide, across restrictive geographical extents: global, east-west hemispheres, biogeographical realms, tectonic plates, biomes, and ecoregions.</p> <p><strong>Time period</strong>: Last Glacial Maximum (~22,000 years ago) to the present.</p> <p><strong>Major taxa studied</strong>: Bats (Chiroptera)</p> <p><strong>Methods</strong>: We estimated bat phylogenetic community structure across restrictive geographical extents and modelled it as a function of paleoclimatic stability, and in situ net diversification rates.</p> <p><strong>Results</strong>: Limiting geographical extents from larger to smaller scales strongly changed the phylogenetic structure of bat communities. The magnitude of these effects is less noticeable in the western hemisphere, where frequent among-realm biota interchange could have been maintained through bats' adaptive traits. Highly phylogenetically related bat communities are generally more common in regions that changed less in climate since the last glacial maximum, supporting the expectation that stable climates allow for increased phylogenetic clustering. Finally, increased in situ net diversification rates are associated with greater phylogenetic clustering in bat communities.</p> <p><strong>Main conclusions</strong>: We show that the worldwide phylogenetic structure of bat assemblages varies as a function of geographical extents, dispersal barriers, paleoclimatic stability and in situ diversification. The integrative framework used in our study, which can be applied to other taxonomic groups, has proven useful to not only explain the evolutionary dynamics of community assembly but could also help tackle questions related to scale dependence in community ecology and biogeography.</p>

Data for: Large-scale long-term passive-acoustic monitoring reveals spatiotemporal activity patterns of boreal bats

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The distribution ranges and spatio-temporal patterns in the occurrence and activity of boreal bats are yet largely unknown due to their cryptic lifestyle and lack of suitable and efficient study methods. We approached the issue by establishing a permanent passive-acoustic sampling setup spanning the area of Finland to gain an understanding on how latitude affects bat species composition and activity patterns in northern Europe. The recorded bat calls were semi-automatically identified for three target taxa; <em>Myotis</em> spp., <em>Eptesicus nilssonii</em> or <em>Pipistrellus nathusii</em> and the seasonal activity patterns were modeled for each taxa across the seven sampling years (2015–2021). We found an increase in activity since 2015 for <em>E. nilssonii</em> and <em>Myotis </em>spp. For <em>E. nilssonii</em> and <em>Myotis</em> spp. we found significant latitude -dependent seasonal activity patterns, where seasonal variation in patterns appeared stronger in the north. Over the years, activity of <em>P. nathusii</em> increased during activity peak in June and late season but decreased in mid season. We found the passive-acoustic monitoring </span><span>network to be an effective and cost-efficient method for gathering b</span><span>at activity data to analyze spatio-temporal patterns. Long-term data on the composition and dynamics of bat communities facilitates better estimates of abundances and population trend directions for conservation purposes and predicting the effects of cli</span><span>mate change.</span></p>

Disentangling mechanical and sensory modules in the radiation of Noctilionoid bats

<p>The vertebrate cranium is a complex anatomical structure with diverse mechanical and sensory functions. Shifts between modularity and integration in both sets of functions, especially mechanical function, have been implicated in adaptive diversification. However, how mechanical and sensory systems and functions have coevolved and how their interrelationship contributes to phenotypic disparity remains largely unexplored. To examine the modularity, integration, and evolutionary rates of sensory and mechanical structures within the head, we analyzed hard and soft tissue scans from ecologically diverse bats from the superfamily Noctilionoidea, which range from generalized insectivores to derived frugivores and nectarivores. We identified eight cranial regions as distinct modules — five associated with bite force and three linked to the olfactory, visual, and auditory systems, respectively — whose interrelationships differ between Neotropical leaf-nosed bats (Family Phyllostomidae) and other noctilionoids. Our analyses suggest that the peak rates of sensory module evolution predate those of mechanical modules. This finding is consistent with transitions to new diets first involving changes in the detection of novel food items, followed by adaptations to process them. We propose the coevolution of structures influencing bite force, olfaction, vision, and hearing constituted a structural opportunity that allowed the phyllostomid ancestor to take advantage of existing ecological opportunity and the group to become a classic example of adaptive radiation.</p>

MHC class II genes mediate susceptibility and resistance to coronavirus infections in bats

<p>Understanding the immunogenetic basis of coronavirus (CoV) susceptibility in major pathogen reservoirs, such as bats, is central to infer their zoonotic potential. Members of the cryptic <em>Hipposideros</em> bat species complex differ in CoV susceptibility, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are the best understood genetic basis of pathogen resistance, and differences in MHC diversity are one possible reason for asymmetrical infection patterns among closely related species. Here, we aimed to link asymmetries in observed CoV (CoV-229E, CoV-2B, and CoV-2Bbasal) susceptibility to immunogenetic differences amongst four <em>Hipposideros</em> bat species. From the 2,072 bats assigned to their respective species using the mtDNA cytochrome b gene, members of the most numerous and ubiquitous species, <em>Hipposideros caffer</em> D, were most infected with CoV-229E and SARS-related CoV-2B. Using a subset of 569 bats we determined that much of the existent allelic and functional (i.e., supertype) MHC DRB class II diversity originated from common ancestry. One MHC supertype shared amongst all species, ST12, was consistently linked to susceptibility with CoV-229E, which is closely related to the common cold agent HCoV-229E, and infected bats with ST12 had a lower body condition. The same MHC supertype was connected to resistance to CoV-2B, and bats with ST12 were less likely be co-infected with CoV-229E and CoV-2B. Our work suggests a role of immunogenetics in determining CoV susceptibility in bats. We advocate for the preservation of functional genetic and species diversity in reservoirs as means of mitigating the risk of disease spillover.</p>

Data from: Strategic predatory pursuit of the stealthy, highly maneuverable, slow flying bat Corynorhinus townsendii

<p class="MsoNormal">A predator's capacity to catch prey depends on its ability to navigate its environment in response to prey movements or escape behavior. In predator-prey interactions that involve an active chase, pursuit behavior can be studied as the collection of rules that dictate how a predator should steer to capture prey. It remains unclear how variable this behavior is within and across species since most studies have detailed the pursuit behavior of high-speed, open-area foragers. In this study, we analyze the pursuit behavior in 44 successful captures by <em>Corynorhinus townsendii</em>, Townsend's big-eared bat (<em>n</em> = 4). This species forages close to vegetation using slow and highly maneuverable flight, which contrasts with the locomotor capabilities and feeding ecologies of other taxa studied to date. Our results indicate that this species relies on an initial stealthy approach, which is generally sufficient to capture prey (32 out of 44 trials). In cases where the initial approach is not sufficient to perform a capture attempt (12 out of 44 trials), <em>C. townsendii</em> continues its pursuit by reacting to prey movements in a manner best modeled with a combination of pure pursuit, or following prey directly, and proportional navigation, or moving to an interception point.</p>

Data for: Drivers affecting habitat use in Afrotropical hipposiderid and pteropodid bats

<p>Assessing how bats respond to habitat attributes requires an integrative approach to reliably predict direct community-level effects. We focused on hipposiderid and pteropodid bats because of their diverse resource use patterns, body size ranges, and dispersal abilities. We combined an array of bat species-level characteristics with key rainforest stand characteristics that may covary with habitat use. Twelve stations were sampled in the Lomami and Yangambi landscapes in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. We investigated whether the species-level flight ability of bats and rainforest stand characteristics can affect bat commuting flights and community-level estimates of both species detection and habitat occupancy. We captured bats for 108 trap-nights. Three sampling events (early evening, middle of the night, and early morning) were replicated for each survey night. Hipposiderids showed an early evening flight peak, while flight activity of pteropodids was constant throughout the night, but increased around the middle of the night. Species capture probability decreased with higher wing loading in hipposiderids and was negatively correlated with higher wing aspect ratio in pteropodids. Forest occupancy of hipposiderids increased along the gradient towards waterways, while pteropodid occurrence was not directly linked to measured forest stand variables. This suggests a consequence of habitat patterns at larger spatial scales, which would need clarifying through additional data collection. We discuss these findings in terms of resource-use strategies of clutter-tolerant and clutter-intolerant species. We argue that the occurrence of specific bat species and their habitat use patterns can serve as surrogate measures of ecosystem health.</p>
