Abstract

SOUZA, Juan de  and  PAVE, Romina. New records of bats from Entre Rios Province, Argentina. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2009, vol.16, n.2, pp.291-298. ISSN 0327-9383.

We studied 66 specimens deposited at the Museo de Ciencias Naturales y Antropológicas "Prof. Antonio Serrano" of Paraná, Entre Ríos, and from other collections, with the objective to update the distribution of the bats species in Entre Rios Province. We cited 11 species for the province, of which Noctilio leporinus and Eptesicus diminutus constitute first records. In addition, we incorporated 10 new localities, included the city of Paraná. The absence of information on this group in the province, due to the lack of systematic samplings, does not permit to interpret distribution and systematic aspects of the species. We consider of importance to survey in different environments, besides analyzing collections of museums to clear the distribution of bats to regional and provincial level.
