    A revision of the African genus Myonycteris Matschie, 1899 (Mammalia, Megachiroptera) (1976)
    In:  Beaufortia (0067-4745) vol.24 (1976) nr.317 p.189
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-10-27
    Description: The fruit bat genus Myonycteris Matschie, 1899, is considered to contain only two valid taxa: the species M. torquata (Dobson, 1878) inhabiting the forest blocks in West Africa and Central Africa, and M. brachycephala (Bocage, 1889) from the island of São Tomé. M. wroughtoni Andersen, 1908, and M. leptodon Andersen, 1908, are considered synonyms of M. torquata. The subgenus Phygetis Andersen, 1912, proposed for the species brachycephala only, is sunk into the synonymy of Myonycteris. A number of new (collecting) localities for torquata is recorded, among which the first one in Nigeria. Data are included on morphological variability, sexual dimorphism, ecology and biology. The possible type locality of torquata, and some evolutionary trends within the genus are discussed.

    Taxonomy and geography of Rousettus amplexicaudatus (Geoffroy, 1810) with comparative notes on sympatric congeners (Mammalia, Megachiroptera) (1981)
    In:  Beaufortia (0067-4745) vol.31 (1981) nr.1 p.1
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-10-27
    Description: Rousettus amplexicaudatus (Geoffroy, 1810) is divided into three subspecies according to size: R. a. amplexicaudatus, R. a. infumatus (Gray, 1870), and R. a. brachyotis (Dobson, 1877). Cynonycteris minor Dobsou, 1873 is synonymized with R. a. infumatus; Rousettus stresemanni Stein, 1933 with R. a. amplexicaudatus; and Rousettus amplexicaudatus hedigeri Pohle, 1952 with R. a. brachyotis. Geography and dimensional variations of the recognized subspecies are discussed. R. amplexicaudatus is recorded for the first time from Celebes, Kisar, Mentawai, Muna and Ndao. The subspecific status of specimens from Celebes, Muna, Peleng and Talisai is left undecided. Other Rousettus species are discussed in so far as they are known to be sympatric with certain R. amplexicaudatus populations: R. leschenaultii (Desmarest, 1820) — recorded for the first time from Bali and Simeuluë —, R. celebensis Andersen, 1907, and R. spinalatus Bergmans & Hill, 1980 — of which a fourth specimen, from a new locality on Borneo, is described. Some dental anomalies and some ectoparasities are listed.

    Description: Mammal type specimens in the former Zoological Museum in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, are listed and, where necessary and possible, annotated. The collection held 123 type specimens including 10 holotypes, 91 paratypes, 2 lectotypes, and 20 paralectotypes, together representing 6 orders, 15 families, 22 genera, and 26 species and subspecies.

    Taxonomy and Zoogeography of the fruits bats of the People\xe2\x80\x99s Republic of Congo, with notes on their reproductive bilogy (Mammalia, Megachiroptera) (1979)
    In:  Bijdragen tot de dierkunde vol. 48 no. 2, pp. 161-186
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-12
    Description: This study deals with 272 Megachiroptera from the People\xe2\x80\x99s Republic of Congo, belonging to 13 taxa: Eidolon helvum helvum (Kerr), Rousettus aegyptiacus unicolor (Gray), Lissonycteris angolensis angolensis (Bocage), Myonycteris torquata (Dobson), Hypsignathus monstrosus Allen, Epomops franqueti franqueti (Tomes), Epomophorus cf. labiatus (Temminck), Epomophorus wahlbergi haldemani (Halowell), Micropteropus grandis Sanborn, Micropteropus pusillus (Peters), Scotonycteris zenkeri zenkeri Matschie, Scotonycteris ophiodon Pohle, and Megaloglossus woermanni Pagenstecher.\nOf these, Epomophorus cf. labiatus and Micropteropus grandis are recorded from this country for the first time. The known ranges of Epomophorus cf. labiatus and Micropteropus grandis are greatly extended towards the west. In morphology and zoogeography ten species correspond with populations to the north and, with the possible exception of both Scotonycteris species, to the south; towards the east the distribution of Rousettus aegyptiacus and both Scotonycteris species is possibly discontinuous. The two Epomophorus species and Micropteropus grandis are linked with populations towards the south and east only.\nSeasonal biannual reproduction is assumed for Epomophorus wahlbergi Epomops franqueti, and Micropteropus pusillus. Data on reproduction in other species are scarce or lacking.

    A new fruit bat of the genus Myonycteris Matschie, 1899, from eastern Kenya and Tanzania (Mammalia, Megachiroptera) (1980)
    In:  Zoologische Mededelingen vol. 55 no. 14, pp. 171-181
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-12
    Description: Myonycteris relicta n. sp. is described from the Shimba Hills in southeast Kenya and from the Usambara Mountains in northeast Tanzania. The species is larger than the only other known African mainland species of the genus, Myonycteris torquata (Dobson, 1878), from the Central and West African rain forests and, if compared to M. torquata and the only other species in the genus, M. brachycephala (Bocage, 1889) from S\xc3\xa3o Tom\xc3\xa9, has a relatively longer rostrum, a more deflected cranial axis, and further differs in number, shape and position of its teeth. The new species provides new arguments for the relationship between the genera Myonycteris Matschie, 1899, and Lissonycteris Andersen, 1912. It is believed that Myonycteris relicta may be a forest species and as such restricted to isolated East African forests.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-12
    Description: Five species of mites belonging to three genera of the family Spinturnioidae are reported from six species of bats in Nigeria. The species are Meristaspis kenyaensis (Radford), Ancystropus aethiopicus Hirst, Spinturnix walkerae Zumpt & Till, S. scotophili repens ssp.n., and S. intectus sp.n. Male and female specimens of the two new taxa are fully described and figured. Zoogeographical and taxonomical implications of the results of this study are discussed.

    Description: The approximate limits of the region of sympatric occurrence of the West African fruit bats Epomops franqueti (Tomes, 1860) and Epomops buettikoferi (Matschie, 1899) are discussed. Series of the two species from that region are compared and a key is given to identify adult specimens. Notes are added on the distribution, ecology and biology of E. buettikoferi.
