SUMMER ACTIVITY PATTERNS OF FOUR RESIDENT SOUTH TEXAS BAT SPECIES

Summer activity patterns of four resident south Texas bat species

Although the activity patterns of bats are recognized to vary widely, both, temporally and spatially, the underlying drivers for those patterns remain poorly understood.Presently, studies focusing on foraging bat ecology have only generalized activity and influence of the environment (across sampling periods, sampling nights, or seasons).The influe

The toothless pterosaur Jidapterus edentus (Pterodactyloidea: Azhdarchoidea) from the Early Cretaceous Jehol Biota and its paleoecological implications.

In the Early Cretaceous Jehol Biota, the toothless pterosaurs flourished with the chaoyangopterids and tapejarids playing a key role in understanding the early diversity and evolution of the Azhdarchoidea.Unlike the more diverse tapejarids, the rarer chaoyangopterids are characterized by a long a&d ej-123 and low rostrum, supporting a close relatio
