List of bats of Madagascar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bats are one of the major components of the indigenous mammalian fauna of Madagascar, in addition to tenrecs, lemurs, euplerid carnivores, and nesomyine rodents. Forty-six bat species have so far been recorded on Madagascar, of which thirty-six occur only on the island. However, new species continue to be discovered, causing the number of species to rise rapidly; for example, Nick Garbutt's Mammals of Madagascar (2007) listed only 36 species.[1] Most Malagasy bats have their origins in nearby mainland Africa, but on at least three occasions—Pipistrellus raceyi, Pteropus rufus, and the species pair Emballonura atrata–E. tiavato—bats have colonized Madagascar from Asia.[2]

Taxonomic classification

[edit]

The following bat genera and families include species found on Madagascar (all species counts are for Madagascar only):

Key

[edit]
Scientific name Scientific name of the species
Classified Year when the species was formally described and classified, as well as the binomial authority of the species
Distribution Geographic distribution of the species. Abbreviations used are S, south; N, north; E, east; W, west; C, central; SW, southwest; etcetera.
Forearm Range in forearm length of adult members of the species, in metric and English units
Conservation status Conservation status of the species, per IUCN as of 2008, except as indicated. "Not evaluated" is used to indicate that no IUCN status assessment is available.

Family Pteropodidae

[edit]

Pteropodidae are a diverse family, with 186 species recognized in 2005,[3] which occurs across the tropical regions of the Old World. They include the largest bats, but also some smaller species, and are mostly diurnal and frugivorous. Three species are known from Madagascar; each is classified in its own genus and is most closely related to species from outside Madagascar.[4]

Scientific name Classified Distribution Forearm Conservation status References
Eidolon dupreanum[Note 1] 1866, Pollen Madagascar only 115 to 130 mm (4.5 to 5.1 in) Vulnerable [6]
Pteropus rufus 1803, E. Geoffroy Madagascar only 155 to 175 mm (6.1 to 6.9 in) Vulnerable [7]
Rousettus madagascariensis[Note 2] 1928, G. Grandidier Madagascar only; absent in SW 65 to 75 mm (2.6 to 3.0 in) Near threatened [9]

Family Hipposideridae

[edit]

Hipposideridae are a moderately diverse family—81 species were listed in 2005[3]—and occur across the Old World tropics. Insectivorous, cave-roosting, and characterized by an elaborate noseleaf, they have often been united with the horseshoe bats (Rhinolophus; absent from Madagascar) into a single family Rhinolophidae, but are currently classified separately. Six species, all endemic, are known from Madagascar, of which four are extant. Macronycteris commersoni is the largest non-pteropodid bat of Madagascar and the extinct Hipposideros besaoka was even larger. The other species belong to the closely related genera Triaenops and Paratriaenops; the latter was split from Triaenops in 2009 and is restricted to Madagascar and the western Seychelles.[10]

Family Emballonuridae

[edit]

With 51 species (2005),[3] Emballonuridae are a moderately diverse family. Found in tropical and subtropical regions across the world, they are characterized by a tail that extends beyond the uropatagium (tail membrane), but may be retracted into a sheath. Four species are known from Madagascar, of which two are endemic and two others are shared with mainland Africa.[21]

Family Nycteridae

[edit]

Nycteridae is a small family of 16 species (2005)[3] in a single genus found in Africa and east to the Sunda Islands. They are characterized by a groove on their face and are insectivorous. A single, poorly known species has been recorded from Madagascar.[26]

Family Myzopodidae

[edit]

This family, characterized by suction disks on the hand and feet, is unique to Madagascar. (It does, however, have a fossil record in Africa extending from the late Eocene to the Pleistocene.[29]) A single species has historically been recognized, but eastern and western populations were classified as separate species in 2007.[30]

Family Molossidae

[edit]

This diverse family of 100 species (2005)[3] occurs across the world in tropical regions. The tail conspicuously projects from the uropatagium and the wings are long. Eight species are known from Madagascar, four of which are endemic.[33]

Family Miniopteridae

[edit]

This family contains a single genus, Miniopterus, with 19 species recognized in 2005,[45] which was classified in Vespertilionidae until recently.[46] Insectivorous and characterized by long fingers, the species are all quite similar, leading to a confused classification. On Madagascar, four species were recognized as recently as 2007, but systematic research has led the number to increase to eleven, of which nine are restricted to Madagascar and two shared with the Comoros.[47]

Family Vespertilionidae

[edit]

With 407 species (2005; including Miniopterus, which is now classified in its own family), Vespertilionidae is the largest bat family.[3] Characterized by a tail contained in the uropatagium, they occur around the world in many habitats and are insectivorous.[59] Madagascar hosts an endemic species of the extremely widespread genus Myotis, four species (three endemic) of the house bat Scotophilus, and at least six (four endemic) of small vespertilionids ("pipistrelles") in the genera Hypsugo, Eptesicus, Neoromicia, and Pipistrellus.[60] The classification of the "pipistrelles" is confused, leading to many changing identifications.[61] In addition to the six "pipistrelles" listed here, the African Neoromicia nanus has also been recorded from Madagascar, but the identification of the Madagascar records needs to be confirmed.[62]
