	Comparative Mammalian Brain Collections: Bulldog bat (Noctilio leporinus)
		The bat skims the surface of a large river or freshwater pond in a zigzag fashion while chirping where pelicans have disturbed schools of fish.
		The fish may be eaten in flight or taken back to a roost where the bat eats while resting.
		The reproductive cycle is monestrous, and one offspring is born during the wet season, offering the most food sources possible.

	Lesser Bulldog Bat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Lesser Bulldog Bat (Noctilio albiventris) is a bat, an insectivorous flying mammal, of the Western Hemisphere (Nearctic), ranging through Central America and northern South America.
		These bats are brown in color with the males being more of a red hue.
		Occasionally, the larger bats catch and consume small fish (A related species, the Greater Bulldog Bat, is known for its fishing ability).

	Lesser Whitethroat (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The Lesser Whitethroat, Sylvia curruca, is a common and widespread Old World warbler which breeds in temperate Europe, except the southwest, and in western and central Asia.
		It is likely that the two species separated in the last ice age, with their ancestor being forced into two enclaves, one in the south east, which became the Lesser Whitethroat, and one in the south west which became the Whitethroat.
		A similar situation occurs with the Chiffchaff and the Willow Warbler, where two very similar leaf warbler species are separated by their very different songs.

		This bat is found in lowland areas on mainland Central and South America and the Greater and Lesser Antilles.
		The diet of this bat consists primarily of fish but also includes insects and crustaceans picked up from the water surface and insects caught in the air.
		The bat fishes over relatively still water (ponds, slow-moving rivers, pools and bays) by flying close to the surface of the water in fairly straight passes with the feet occasionally dipping into the water.

	Elisabeth Kalko
		Among terrestrial vertebrates, bats are especially well-suited because they are distributed worldwide, highly speciose, and unsurpassed in ecological diversity among mammals.
		Currently, my research is divided into four main areas: (1) case studies of bat species interacting with other organisms, (2) comparisons of behavior, physiology, and ecology of sympatric bat species, (3) comparative community studies, and (4) museum studies on taxonomy and systematics of bats.
		Specifically, I am interested to find out how the bat’s use of its sensory systems (sound, smell, sight, touch) is coupled with differences in foraging strategies, diet, habitat choice, and morphology (i.e., wing shape) to affect its ability to exploit resources.

	Terrestrial Ecoregions -- Northern Dry Pacific Coast mangroves (NT1425)
		Resources are typically more available in these mangrove patches as freshwater is drawn up by the mangroves and mists from the ocean help provide moisture for plants.
		Two mammals, which most likely do live in this ecoregion, are the raccoon (Procyon lotor) and lesser bulldog bat (Noctilio albiventris) a fish eating bat that can find plenty of food in this ecoregion.
		Many species of sea turtles, freshwater turtles, crocodiles, iguanas, snakes, caimans and alligators can also be found utilizing the mangrove ecosystems.
