ABSTRACT
Several species of bats are known to modify leaves and build tents for shelters; fifteen of these are Neotropical phyllostomids (Timm, 1987; Charles-Dominique, 1993), and three are Old World bats (Rickart et al., 1989). This type of roosts offers protection from rain, wind, sun, and predators and also may be used as feeding roosts (Timm, 1987; Brooke, 1990; Charles-Dominique, 1993). A number of studies on bat"s tenthave been carried out in Central America, mainly in Costa Rica (Chapman, 1932; Ingles, 1953; Foster and Timm, 1976; Timm and Mortimer, 1976; Timm, 1984; Choe and Timm, 1985; Brooke, 1987; Timm, 1987; Broke,1990; Timm and Lewis, 1991). In Brazil the only published information is on Artibeus jamaicensis and Uroderma bilobatum roosting in tents built of leaves of Musaceae (Carvalho, 1961).
