Pioneer plants consumption by frugivorous bats in a fragment of tropical dry forest (Colombia)

Seed dispersal is an important process for the regeneration and maintenance of forests; This mechanism allows plants to colonize new sites and maintain the structure of the population. Bats have been recognized as effective dispersers of seeds in several tropical forest ecosystems, due to the abilit...

Bats have been recognized as effective dispersers of seeds in several tropical forest ecosystems, due to the ability to defecate in flight, fly over open areas and exert a germination effect on released seeds. In this study was to evaluate diet preference of fruit bats in a tropical dry forest in the department of Tolima. The analysis of 63 dietary records of 14 bat species allowed to identify 11 plant species, three genera and one morphospecies. Bidens pilosa, Piper crassinervium and Physalis peruviana L. showed the highest consumption. Artibeus lituratus had the widest niche breath, followed by Artibeus planirostris. Low overlays were present among these bat species, which could reflect a niche segregation as a strategy to avoid competition between sympatric species. The consumption of fruits in a successional shrubs state is highlighted, which reaffirms the key role of bats in the dispersion of pioneer species.La dispersión de semillas es una de las interacciones planta-animal más importante en la dinámica de comunidades vegetales y el mantenimiento de la diversidad de plantas en los bosques tropicales; ya que, mediante este mecanismo, las plantas encuentran la posibilidad de colonizar nuevos sitios y mantener la estructura poblacional. Por lo anterior, se evaluó la preferencia en la dieta de las especies de murciélagos frugívoros de un bosque seco. El análisis de 63 registros dietarios de 14 especies de murciélagos permitió identificar 11 especies, tres géneros y una morfoespecie de frutos dispersados, de los cuales Bidens pilosa, Piper crassinervium y Physalis peruviana L. fueron las especies más explotadas. Artibeus planirostris presentó la mayor amplitud de dieta seguido por Dermanura phaeotis. Se presentó sobreposiciones de dieta bajas debido a que la dieta se centró en plantas con patrones de fructificación continuos. Se resalta el consumo de frutos en estado sucesional arbusto, lo cual confirma el papel clave de los murciélagos en la dispersión de especies pioneras.application/pdfspaspaUniversidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombiahttps://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ciencia_en_desarrollo/article/view/8240/8646Derechos de autor 2019 CIENCIA EN DESARROLLOhttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Ciencia En Desarrollo; Vol. 10 No. 2 (2019): Vol 10, Núm. 2 (2019): Julio - Diciembre; 33-41Ciencia en Desarrollo; Vol. 10 Núm. 2 (2019): Vol 10, Núm. 2 (2019): Julio - Diciembre; 33-412462-76580121-7488Dietadispersiónmurciélagosemilla.EcologíaChiroptera, Frugivory, tropical dry forest, seedPioneer plants consumption by frugivorous bats in a fragment of tropical dry forest (Colombia)Consumo de plantas pioneras por murciélagos frugívoros en un fragmento de bosque seco tropical (Colombia)info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1García Herera, Leidy VivianaRamírez Fráncel, Leidy AzucenaReinoso Flórez, Gladys001/15254oai:repositorio.uptc.edu.co:001/152542025-07-18 10:56:40.35metadata.onlyhttps://repositorio.uptc.edu.coRepositorio Institucional UPTCrepositorio.uptc@uptc.edu.co
