A New Species Of Eptesicus From Guadeloupe, Lesser Antilles (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae), Hugh H. Genoways, Robert J. Baker
A New Species Of Eptesicus From Guadeloupe, Lesser Antilles (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae), Hugh H. Genoways, Robert J. Baker
University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers
In the course of field studies on bats of the Antillean region, three specimens of the genus Eptesicus were obtained on the island of Guadeloupe in the Lesser Antilles. The nearest known populations of this genus are on Puerto Rico 500 kilometers to the west (E. fuscus wetmorei), on the northern coast of South America 850 kilometers to the southwest (E. fuscus miradorensis), and on Tobago 550 kilometers to the south (E. brasiliensis melanopterus). Study of the specimens from Guadeloupe reveals that they represent a distinct species that is most closely related to Eptesicus …

The Guadalupe Mountains National Park, which is located in TransPecos Texas between Carlsbad, New Mexico, and EI Paso, Texas, is one of the newest national parks being formed by the Congress in 1967. The Guadalupe Mountains and the associated Chihuahuan Desert included in the park represent a unique biological area in which a fragile biological equilibrium exists between the fauna and flora of the Chihuahuan Desert of the lowlands and the Rocky Mountains of the high elevations. The preservation of this area will depend upon sound management decisions. This volume is the result of a symposium held at The Museum …

Our survey began in late May 1973 and continued through August 1975. The objectives of our study, which was supported by the National Park Service, were to survey the mammals occurring in the Guadalupe Mountains National Park, Texas, and to correlate their distribution with major plant associations. This inventory of the natural resources of the park is preliminary to the development of any serious management program. Therefore, we present the following accounts to serve as baseline data for future mammalian work in the park and development of the master plan for the park.
