Abstract

Abstract In Colombia, 217 bat species have been recorded of which at least 22 species occur in Andean and sub-Andean ecosystems. To evaluate the richness of bats in an Andean elevational range at the Municipality of Manizales, Central Andes of Colombia, we performed surveys supplemented with incidental captures from 2018 to 2022 at different urban and peri-urban areas, and reviewed specimens in biological collections. We evaluated the perception and knowledge that local people have about bats using an online survey. We reported 33 species in the study area. Phyllostomidae showed the highest richness (20 species), followed by Vespertilionidae (11 species), and Molossidae (2 species). For the survey, we obtained responses from 219 people who showed a good knowledge about bats and their ecological importance. We did not find significant differences between ages and levels of schooling in the perception about bats. Our results highlight the relevance of conserving the green areas of Manizales and the need for environmental education programs to reduce possible bat-human conflicts and negative perceptions. Manizales has the potential as an Area of Importance for the Conservation of Bats, due to its high bat richness and that reproduction is occurring within the study area.

哥伦比亚马尼萨莱斯的城市和城郊蝙蝠(哺乳目:翼目目):探索亚安第斯和安第斯生态系统的保护区
在哥伦比亚,已记录到217种蝙蝠,其中至少22种出现在安第斯和亚安第斯生态系统中。为了评估哥伦比亚安第斯山脉中部马尼萨莱斯市安第斯山脉海拔范围内蝙蝠的丰富度,我们于2018年至2022年在不同的城市和城郊地区进行了调查,并对生物标本进行了审查。我们通过在线调查评估了当地人对蝙蝠的认知和知识。研究区共发现33种。丰富度最高的是Phyllostomidae(20种),其次是vespertilionae(11种)和Molossidae(2种)。在这项调查中,我们得到了219人的回复,他们对蝙蝠及其生态重要性有很好的了解。我们没有发现年龄和学校教育水平在对蝙蝠的认知上有显著差异。我们的研究结果强调了保护马尼萨莱斯绿地的重要性,以及环境教育计划的必要性,以减少可能的蝙蝠-人类冲突和负面看法。马尼萨莱斯有潜力成为蝙蝠保护的重要地区,因为它的蝙蝠丰富度很高,而且在研究区域内正在进行繁殖。

期刊介绍: Mammalia is an international, multidisciplinary, bimonthly journal devoted to the inventory, analysis and interpretation of mammalian diversity. It publishes original results on all aspects of the systematics and biology of mammals with a strong focus on ecology, including biodiversity analyses, distribution habitats, diet, predator-prey relationships, competition, community analyses and conservation of mammals. The journal also accepts submissions on sub-fossil or recently extinct mammals.
