Abstract

IDOETA, Fabricio M; DE SANTIS, Luciano J. M  and  BARQUEZ, Rubén M. Genus Cynomops (Chiroptera, Molossidae) in Misiones, Argentina. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2012, vol.19, n.2, pp.163-178. ISSN 0327-9383.

Comments on its distribution and natural history. Three species of Cynomops are distributed in Argentina; records on their distribution and knowledge about their natural history are scarce. In this note we report new records of C. abrasus and C. planirostris from Misiones province, expanding northeastward the distributional range of the latter, which has only been previously reported from Salta and Jujuy provinces. Bats were captured at the exit of their shelters; although specimens of both species were found in the same tree, they were occupying different sites inside. In addition, C. planirostris coexist with specimens of Molossops temminckii.

Keywords : Bats; Distribution; Misiones; Roosts.
