A Big Leap From Its Normal Distribution, Two Hahn’s Short-Tailed Fruit Bats (Carollia Subrufa) Reported in Far Southwestern Costa Rica.
Keyword(s):
Abstract Populations of Hahn’s short-tailed fruit bats (Carollia subrufa) are found from northwestern Mexico to the tropical dry forests of northeastern Costa Rica, with but two reports in the Monteverde area and another in Dominical. Here we report two captures registered 310 kilometers south of their normal range in the country; specifically, in San Vito de Coto Brus. Due to the location of San Vito a mere 10 kilometers from the Panamanian border, we suggest the possibility of a new mammal species for that country. Finally, we encourage continued efforts to better understand bat populations in this region of the isthmus.
