	ASM 2004 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Relationships among the genera of free-tailed bats have not been tested with molecular data and thus, the objective of this study was to construct a phylogeny among molossid genera using DNA sequence data.
		We amplified, cloned, and sequenced intron 7 of the beta-fibrinogen gene to examine the relationships among 15 species from 9 genera in the family Molossidae and outgroups from the families Vespertilionidae and Phyllostomidae.
		We conclude that although additional taxonomic sampling will be necessary to completely understand relationships within the family Molossidae, the hypotheses of relationship supported by the analysis of the beta-fibrinogen gene are inconsistent with current taxonomy.

	Molossidae
		Molossidae (including Tomopeatinae) is a diverse group of fast-flying aerial insectivores.
		Monophyly of Molossidae (including Tomopeatinae) is stongly supported by morphological data (Simmons, 1998; Simmons and Geisler, 1998).
		Phylogenetic relationships within Molossidae have been investigated using morphometrics (Freeman, 1981), discrete morphological characters (Legendre, 1984, 1985; Hand, 1990), allozymes (Sudman et al., 1994), and cytochrome b gene sequences (Sudman et al., 1994).

	Family Molossidae or free-tailed bats
		The geographical distribution of Molossidae is shown in red.
		DISTRIBUTION: Eumops underwoodi, a member of the Family Molossidae, is known in the United States only from a few localities in Pima County, Arizona.
		Pesticides and Bats A new stress commonly implicated in the decline of free-tailed bats is the use of organochlorine pesticides, specifically DDT and dieldrin.

	FOSSIL BATS OF THE AMERICAS
		The Brooksville specimen probably represents a new genus and species of Molossidae, but the single available tooth is not sufficient for the description of a new taxon.
		The Molossidae occur worldwide in tropical regions, with a few species found in temperate latitudes on each of the continents (Hill and Smith 1984; Koopman 1993).
		The Molossidae are one of only three or four families of bats so far known to be shared by North America and South America before the Great American Biotic Interchange, the others being Emballonuridae, Vespertilionidae, and possibly Phyllostomidae (Czaplewski 1997; Czaplewski et al.

		These molecular data strongly support Noctilionoidea (Furipteridae, Mormoopidae, Mystacinidae, Noctilionidae, Phyllostomidae, and Thyropteridae) and Vespertilionoidea (Molossidae, Natalidae, and Vespertilionidae) and strongly contradict traditional association between Myzopodidae and other noctilionoid or vespertilionoid families.
		A prevalent hypothesis has been that all 5 families are allied closely with Molossidae and Vespertilionidae (superfamily Vespertilionoidea), but there has been little consensus about their exact affinities within traditional Yangochiroptera (Koopman 1984, 1993; Miller 1907; Smith 1976, 1980).
		Rag2 and combined analyses.-Phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences from nuclear Rag2 gene provides a novel assessment of yangochiropteran systematics and represents only the 3rd independent cladistic assessment of all families within traditional Yangochiroptera.

	Brazilian free-tailed bat - Tadarida brasiliensis - ARKive
		Status: The Brazilian free-tailed bat is classified as Lower Risk/near threatened (LR/nt) on the IUCN Red List 2004 and is listed on Appendix I of the Convention on Migratory Species.
		A member of the Molossidae family, the Brazilian free-tailed bat has the characteristic mouse-like tail protruding beyond the flight membrane stretched between its hind legs.
		Relatively plain when compared to many bats, this species has brown fur, large ears that are nearly square, and a strongly wrinkled upper lip.
