  • Combat of Desmodus rotundus rotundus (E. Geofroy, 1810) in the Cordisburgo and Curvelo carstic region, Minas Gerais, Brazil
    Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais Escola de Veterinária, 2002

    Abstract:

    Com o objetivo de avaliar em uma região cárstica o tipo de refúgio, as espécies de morcegos, a população de animais domésticos, as associações interespecíficas nas coabitações com outros mamíferos silvestres suscetíveis à raiva e a eficácia da warfarina aplicada no dorso do Desmodus rotundus rotundus foi realizada uma pesquisa de maio de 1998 a março de 2000, nos municípios de Cordisburgo e Curvelo, Minas Gerais. Em 49 refúgios vistoriados, 29 naturais e 20 artificiais, localizados em 14 propriedades, encontrou-se o Desmodus rotundus rotundus em 18 abrigos naturais. Destes, 17 eram cavernas formadas pela dissolução ou abatimento de rocha calcária, típica do carste, e um era túnel escavado na terra pela ação das águas de um rio. As características geomorfológicas e de localização espacial foram registradas com base nas coordenadas geográficas, obtidas com auxílio de um sensor geográfico de posição. Nesses abrigos foram capturados e identificados 1457 morcegos de 14 espécies, sendo 640 Glossophaga soricina (Pallas, 1766), 566 Desmodus rotundus (E. Geoffroy, 1810), 73 Anoura geoffroyi (Gray 1838), 58 Trachops cirrhosus (Spix, 1823), 38 Diphylla ecaudata ecaudata (Spix, 1823), 23 Platyhrrinus lineatus (E. Geoffroy, 1810), 16 Lasiurus ega (Gervais, 1856), 14 Carollia perspicillata (Linnaeus, 1758), 13 Phyllostomus hastatus hastatus (Pallas, 1767), 9 Artibeus lituratus (Olfers, 1818), 3 Mimmon bennettii (Gray, 1838), 2 Myotis nigricans (Schinz, 1821), 1 Eptesicus brasiliensis (Desmarest, 1819) e 1 Pygoderma bilabiatum (Wagner, 1843). Não se conseguiu isolar ou detectar o vírus rábico no cérebro de 25 hematófagos selecionados e em 52 de outras espécies. A maioria desses abrigos também era usada por pacas (Agouti paca Linnaues, 1766), capivaras (Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris, Linnaues, 1766), guaxinins (Procyon cancrivorus, G. Cuvier, 1798) e raposas (Lycalopex vetulus, Lund, 1842) que são suscetíveis à raiva. Em 546 Desmodus rotundus rotundus foi aplicada na região interescapular, aproximadamente um grama de uma pasta contendo warfarina dissolvida em vaselina, na razão de dois gramas para cada 100 gramas do produto. Observou-se redução significativa na incidência de mordeduras em bovinos e eqüídeos e na presença ou vestígios recentes de Desmodus rotundus rotundus em quatro abrigos dos 18 que estavam habitados no início do trabalho. Nas vistorias pós-tratamento dos vampiros com warfarina, em todos os abrigos, não se encontraram morcegos não hematófagos ou mamíferos mortos ou com sinais clínicos de intoxicação atribuíveis ao anticoagulante.Between May 1998 and March 2000, a carstic region was studied to evaluate existing bat species, their roosts, nearby domestic animal populations, wild mammals susceptible to rabies sharing same roosts and the efficiency of warfarin when applied to Desmodus rotundus rotundus dorsal area. The 480km² studied area included Cordisburgo and Curvelo counties, Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Searching roosts sheltering blood sucking bats and other wild animals, 49 roosts were found, being 29 of them natural. Desmodus rotundus rotundus bats were present in 18 natural roosts. Seventeen of these caves were formed by calcarium rock dissolution or fall, both typical occurrence in the carste, and one tunnel carved through the action of a former river. The geomorphological characteristics and spatial locations, based on their geographics coordinates, were obtained with the help of a geographic position sensor (GPS). In these roosts 1457 bats of 14 species roosts were captured and identified being 640 Glossophaga soricina (Pallas, 1766), 566 Desmodus rotundus rotundus (E. Geoffroy, 1810), 73 Anoura geoffroyi (Gray 1838), 58 Trachops cirrhosus (Spix, 1823), 38 Diphylla ecaudata ecaudata (Spix, 1823), 23 Platyhrrinus lineatus (E. Geoffroy, 1810), 16 Lasiurus ega (Gervais, 1856), 14 Carollia perspicillata (Linnaeus, 1758), 13 Phyllostomus hastatus hastatus (Pallas, 1767), 9 Artibeus lituratus (Olfers, 1818), 3 Mimmon bennettii (Gray, 1838), 2 Myotis nigricans (Schinz, 1821), 1 Eptesicus brasiliensis (Desmarest, 1819) and 1 Pygoderma bilabiatum (Wagner, 1843). The brains of 25 blood sucking bats and 52 of other species were selected for exam by direct imunofluorescence and inoculation in mice, but no rabies virus was detected. The majority of the roosts were also used by pacas (Agouti paca Linnaeus, 1766), water-hog (Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris, Linnaeus, 1766), raccoons (Procyon cancrivorus, G. Cuvier, 1798) and foxes (Licalopex vetulus, Lund, 1842) all of each are also susceptible to rabies. In 546 Desmodus rotundus rotundus it was applied on interescapular area, approximately 1 gram of paste with warfarin dissolved in vaselin, being 2 grams for each 100 grams of the product. In the final evaluation, it was observed significant decrease in the incidence of bites in cattle and horses and the presence of recent traces of Desmodus rotundus rotundus, which were observed only in four out of 18 roosts. After the treatment of the blood sucking bats with warfarin, in all former roosts, no non sucking blood bat, nor mammal with clinical signs of intoxication attributed to the anticoagulant were found

  • A novel endogenous betaretrovirus in the common vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus) suggests multiple independent infection and cross-species transmission events
    CrossRef] [PubMed, 2016

    Abstract:

    TheDesmodus rotundus endogenous betaretrovirus (DrERV) is fixed in the vampire batD. rotundus population and in other phyllostomid bats but is not present in all species from this family. DrERV is not phylogenetically related to OldWorld bat be-taretroviruses but to betaretroviruses from rodents and NewWorld primates, suggesting recent cross-species transmission. A recent integration age estimation of the provirus in some taxa indicates that an exogenous counterpart might have been in recent circulation. The common vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus) is a phyllosto-mid bat species with a broad geographical distribution and lives in close proximity with humans and domestic animals (1). Recently described retroviruses in chiropterans are diverse, some potentially representing the oldest viral lineages in mammalian taxa (2–5). However, retroviral characterization has been re-stricted to bat species distributed in Eurasia, Africa, and Australia (2, 4, 5). Little is known about retroviruses in bats from the neo-tropics, and nothing is known about those in vampire bats. En-dogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are present in the genomes of all vertebrates examined (2–13). As different species may share ER

  • OBSERVACIONES SOBRE LA BIOLOGÍA DEL MURCIÉLAGO VAMPIRO COMÚN (Desmodus rotundus) EN LA PROVINCIA DE CHIRIQUÍ, PANAMÁ.
    Universidad de Panamá. Dirección de Centros Regionales Universitarios, 2021
    Co-Authors: Araúz G Jacobo, Chavarría Abdiel, Castillo Melquiades
    Abstract:

    Observations of the common vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus) obtained in mangroves and remnants of main land forests are reported in areas near the Gulf of Chiriquí, Republic of Panama. Bats were captured in September 2016, also in March and July 2017, for which fog nets 2.5 m high by 12 m long were used. Records of 143 specimens were obtained, 79 of them captured in the mangroves and 64 in the forest remnants. In the mangroves 35 females and 44 males were captured, while in the forest remnants 23 females and 41 males were obtained, for a total of 85 males and 58 females during the entire work. Among 25 registered bat species, D. rotundus was the second most abundant species in the sample (17.43%). The highest activity of D. rotundus in the area was observed between 21h:00 and 10h:00 (44.05% of the captures), decrease towards midnight. Greater evidence of reproductive activity was observed during the rainy season, with pregnant, lactating and ablactating females in the months of July and September. 87% of the captured males had testicles in scrotal position, with a higher number during the rainy season.Se informa sobre observaciones del murciélago vampiro común (Desmodus rotundus) obtenidas en manglares y remanentes de bosques de tierra firme en zonas próximas al Golfo de Chiriquí, República de Panamá. Se capturaron murciélagos en septiembre de 2016, y en marzo y julio de 2017, para lo cual se utilizaron redes de niebla de 2.5 m de alto por 12 m de largo. Se obtuvieron registros de 143 ejemplares, 79 de ellos capturados en los manglares y 64 en los remanentes boscosos. En los manglares se capturaron 35 hembras y 44 machos, mientras que en los remanentes boscosos se obtuvieron 23 hembras y 41 machos, para un total de 85 machos y 58 hembras durante todo el trabajo.  Entre 25 especies de murciélagos registrados, D. rotundus fue la segunda especie más abundante en la muestra (17.43%). La mayor actividad de D. rotundus en la zona se observó entre las 21:00 y las 22:00 horas (44.05% de las capturas), notándose una disminución hacia la media noche. Se observó una mayor evidencia de actividad reproductiva durante la estación lluviosa, con hembras grávidas, lactantes y ablactantes en los meses de julio y septiembre. El 87% de los machos capturados tuvieron testículos en posición escrotal, con una mayor cantidad durante la estación lluviosa
