predation of the free tailed bat Tadarida brasiliensis i geoffroy saint hilaire 1824 by the american kestrel falco sparverius linnaeus 1758 in an urban sector of santiago city metropolitan region chile
Biodiversity and Natural History, 2015Co-Authors: Annia Rodriguezsan Pedro, Juan Luis AllendesAbstract:The American kestrel ( Falco sparverius ) is a raptor widely distributed in America. Throughout its geographic distribution, the American kestrel feeds on a variety of animal taxa, including bats. In Chile, however, there are no reports of American kestrel feeding on bats. This note reports the first known record of predation by the American kestrel on the free-tailed bat Tadarida brasiliensis .

Depredación del murciélago de cola libre Tadarida brasiliensis (I. Geoffroy Saint Hilaire, 1824) por el cernícalo Falco sparverius Linnaeus, 1758, en un sector urbano de Santiago, Región Metropolitana, Chile
Centro de Estudios en Biodiversidad, 2015Co-Authors: Annia Rodriguezsan Pedro, Juan Luis AllendesAbstract:El cernícalo americano (Falco sparverius) es un ave rapaz distribuido en todo el continente americano. A lo largo de toda su distribución geográfica, el cernícalo se alimenta de una gran variedad de animales, incluyendo a los murciélagos. En Chile, sin embargo, no existe información que reporte a los murciélagos como parte de la dieta de esta especie. Esta nota reporta el primer registro conocido de depredación por el cernícalo americano sobre el murciélago de cola libre Tadarida brasiliensis

brazilian free tailed bats Tadarida brasiliensis adjust foraging behaviour in response to migratory moths
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 2018Co-Authors: Jennifer J Krauel, John M Ratcliffe, John K Westbrook, Gary F MccrackenAbstract:Insect migrations represent large movements of resources across a landscape, which are attractive to predators capable of detecting and catching them. Brazilian free-tailed bats (Tadarida brasilien...

female dietary bias towards large migratory moths in the european free tailed bat Tadarida teniotis
Biology Letters, 2016Co-Authors: Vanessa A Mata, Francisco Amorim, Hugo Rebelo, Pedro Beja, Gary F Mccracken, M F V CorleyAbstract:In bats, sexual segregation has been described in relation to differential use of roosting and foraging habitats. It is possible that variation may also exist between genders in the use of different prey types. However, until recently this idea was difficult to test owing to poorly resolved taxonomy of dietary studies. Here, we use high-throughput sequencing to describe gender-related variation in diet composition of the European free-tailed bat (Tadarida teniotis), while controlling for effects of age and season. We analysed guano pellets collected from 143 individuals mist-netted from April to October 2012 and 2013, in northeast Portugal. Moths (Lepidoptera; mainly Noctuidae and Geometridae) were by far the most frequently recorded prey, occurring in nearly all samples and accounting for 96 out of 115 prey taxa. There were significant dietary differences between males and females, irrespective of age and season. Compared to males, females tended to consume larger moths and more moths of migratory behaviour (e.g.Autographa gamma). Our study provides the first example of gender-related dietary variation in bats, illustrating the value of novel molecular tools for revealing intraspecific variation in food resource use in bats and other insectivores.

economic value of the pest control service provided by brazilian free tailed bats in south central texas
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, 2006Co-Authors: Cutler J Cleveland, Gary F Mccracken, Margrit Betke, Paula Federico, Jeff D Frank, Thomas G Hallam, Jason W Horn, Juan D Lopez, Rodrigo A Medellin, Arnulfo MorenovaldezAbstract:Brazilian free-tailed bats (Tadarida brasiliensis) form enormous summer breeding colonies, mostly in caves and under bridges, in south-central Texas and northern Mexico. Their prey includes several species of adult insects whose larvae are known to be important agricultural pests, including the corn earworm or cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa zea). We estimate the bats' value as pest control for cotton production in an eight-county region in south-central Texas. Our calculations show an annual value of $741 000 per year, with a range of $121 000–$1 725 000, compared to a $4.6–$6.4 million per year annual cotton harvest.

acarine infracommunities associated with the mexican free tailed bat Tadarida brasiliensis mexicana chiroptera molossidae in arid regions of mexico
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2003Co-Authors: Carmen Guzmancornejo, Juan B Moralesmalacara, Luis Garciaprieto, Perezponce G De LeonAbstract:The Mexican free-tailed bat, Tadarida brasiliensis mexicana, is one of the most widely distributed bats, and its range includes the whole Mexican territory. Ectoparasites of this bat have been the subject of isolated reports, but no studies of its community ecology have been conducted. The acarine infracommunities associated with this bat were analyzed, comparing bat populations from three arid regions of Mexico: an abandoned factory in Nombre de Dios, Durango; a cave in Santiago, Nuevo Leon; and a church in Concepcion del Oro, Zacatecas. The acarine infracommunity in Nuevo Le6n's bats exhibited the highest levels of diversity as reflected by a higher richness, a lower dominance, and a moderate and relatively homogeneous abundance in this locality in relation to the other two. This pattern is influenced by stable cave conditions relative to artificial habitats. Notwithstanding, further studies are required to determine whether or not different habitat conditions are a primary factor in the process of structuring the acari infracommunities.
