White-throated Round-eared Bat
The white-throated round-eared bat (''Lophostoma silvicolum'') is a bat species found from Honduras to Bolivia, Paraguay and Brazil. It creates roosts inside the nests of the termite, ''Nasutitermes corniger''. It thrives on a mainly insect-based diet, focusing on the surfaces of foliage to hunt, and also eats fruit and pollen. It has a very wide range and is a common species over much of that range, so the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed its conservation status as being of "least concern". Taxonomy This species was first described in 1836 by the French naturalist Alcide d'Orbigny. Four subspecies are recognised: *''L.s.silvicolum'': southern Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, eastern and north-eastern Brazil, eastern and north-eastern Ecuador, eastern Peru, central and northern Bolivia and Paraguay *''L.s.centralis'': southern Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and northern Panama; *''L.s.laephotis'': Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana and northeastern B ...

Lophostoma Occidentalis
The western round-eared bat (''Lophostoma occidentalis'') is a bat species found only on the Pacific coast of northwestern Ecuador. Taxonomy and etymology It was described as a new subspecies of the white-throated round-eared bat in 1978 by Davis and Carter. As the white-throated round-eared bat was in the genus ''Tonatia'' at the time, the western round-eared bat had a trinomen of ''Tonatia silvicola occidentalis''. In 2011, it was recognized as a full species. In the same publication, it was established that ''Lophostoma aequatorialis'' was a junior synonym of ''L. occidentalis''. Its species name "'' occidentalis''" is Latin for "western." Description Its forearm length is . Its dorsal fur is long and dark brown, while the fur around its throat is whitish. It has white or pale gray patches of fur behind its ears. Range and status It is found in South America, where its range includes Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. It has been documented at elevations of . As of 2016, it was e ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
