Abstract

DIAS, Daniela et al. First record of Myotis izecksohni (chiroptera, vespertilionidae) for the Atlantic Forest of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2015, vol.22, n.1, pp.149-153. ISSN 0327-9383.

Myotis izecksohni Moratelli et al., 2011 was recently described from the Myotis nigricans (Schinz, 1821) complex, based on samples from four localities above 700 m in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest of south (Paraná) and southeastern (Rio de Janeiro) Brazil. The species is currently known only from these localities and little is known about its distributional limits, ecology and natural history. Here, we present 3 new occurrence records from Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil. Specimens reported here fit the qualitative and quantitative traits reported in the original description of M. izecksohni.

Keywords : Atlantic Forest; Myotis; Serra da Mantiqueira.
