University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

A new species of molossid bat of the genus Molossops is described from Suriname. The new species is a member of the subgenus Molossops where it is distinguished from the other two member species, temminckii and aequatorianus, by larger external and cranial size. A single specimen of the species was taken in northern Suriname in an area of savannah and secondary forest.

Results Of The Alcoa Foundation-Suriname Expeditions. Iii. Chromosomal Data For Bats (Mammalia: Chiroptera) From Suriname, Rodney L. Honeycutt, Hugh H. Genoways, Robert J. Baker

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

Standard karyotypic data are presented for 28 species involving 98 specimens. The karyotype of Micronycteris sylvestris, M. daviesi, Phyllostomus latifolius, and Tonatia schulzi are reported for the first time. Chromosomal variation is described for Rhinophylla pumilio and Rhogeessa tumida. Karyotypes for the other species examined were like those previously described in the literature.

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

The occurrence of 14 species of bats previously unknown in Suriname are documented, making a total of 85 species of bats known to occur in the country. The new records include Pteronotus personatus, Chrotopterus auritus, Micronycteris daviesi, M. sylvestris, Phyllostomus latifolius, Choeroniscus godmani, C. intermedius, Lionycteris spurrelli, Mesophylla macconnelli, Vampyressa brocki, Vampyrops brachycephalus, Rhogeessa tumida, Molossops abrasus, and M. greenhalli. Additional information is provided on several species of bats already known to occur in Suriname, including Micronycteris minuta, M. nicefori, Phylloderma stenops, Tonatia …

Results Of The Alcoa Foundation-Suriname Expeditions. 1. A New Species Of Bat Of The Genus Tonatia (Mammalia: Phyllostomatidae), Hugh H. Genoways, Stephen L. Williams

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

new species of the phyllostomatine genus Tonatia is described from Suriname. The species is characterized by medium size, the presence of small wart-like granulations of the dorsal surfaces of the forearm, digits, and hind limbs and on the ears and noseleaf, and possessing a unique karyotype. Two specimens of the species were taken in the rainforests of central Suriname.


Evolutionary Origin Of Eptesicus Lynni, Michael L. Arnold, Robert J. Baker, Hugh H. Genoways May 1980

Evolutionary Origin Of Eptesicus Lynni, Michael L. Arnold, Robert J. Baker, Hugh H. Genoways

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

Currently, three species of bats of the genus Eptesicus (fuscus, guadeloupensis, and lynni) are recognized as occurring on islands in the Antilles. Of these, E. fuscus and E. guadeloupensis are believed to belong to the fuscus-group of the genus (Davis, 1966; Genoways and Baker, 1975). However, the status and relationships of E. lynni are unclear. Shamel (1945) described lynni as a member of the brasiliensis-group. On the other hand, Sanbom (1941) considered three earlier specimens of lynni as members of the subspecies E. fuscus hispaniolae (we have examined the Sanbom specimens and they are referable to …
