Scaling of echolocation call parameters in bats
G Jones - Journal of Experimental Biology, 1999 - journals.biologists.com
ABSTRACT I investigated the scaling of echolocation call parameters (frequency, duration
and repetition rate) in bats in a functional context. Low-duty-cycle bats operate with search …

However, some bats rely partly or entirely on other sensory systems, such as passive
hearing, to detect prey-generated signals (eg, calls and rustling sounds of insects) to find …

Phylogenetic analysis of covariance by computer simulation
Biologists often compare average phenotypes of groups of species defined cladistically or
on behavioral, ecological, or physiological criteria (eg, carnivores vs. herbivores, social vs …

Effects of the removal or reduction in density of the malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae sl., on interacting predators and competitors in local ecosystems
New genetic control methods for mosquitoes may reduce vector species without direct
effects on other species or the physical environment common with insecticides or drainage …

Body size evolution in insular vertebrates: generality of the island rule
MV Lomolino - Journal of biogeography, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Aim My goals here are to (1) assess the generality of the island rule–the graded trend from
gigantism in small species to dwarfism in larger species–for mammals and other terrestrial …

Identification of twenty‐two bat species (Mammalia: Chiroptera) from Italy by analysis of time‐expanded recordings of echolocation calls
Spectral and temporal features of echolocation calls emitted by 22 bat species from Italy
(three rhinolophids, 18 vespertilionids and the molossid Tadarida teniotis) are described …

Biosonar performance of foraging beaked whales (Mesoplodon densirostris)
Toothed whales (Cetacea, odontoceti) emit sound pulses to probe their surroundings by
active echolocation. Non-invasive, acoustic Dtags were placed on deep-diving Blainville's …

Table for five, please: Dietary partitioning in boreal bats
Differences in diet can explain resource partitioning in apparently similar, sympatric species.
Here, we analyzed 1,252 fecal drop**s from five species (Eptesicus nilssonii, Myotis …
