Resumo

Species of batflies of bats from Amazonas and Pará, Brazil are reported. Eleven species of Streblidae and three of Nycteribiidae were found on nine species of bats, belonging to seven genera. Pseudostrebla greenwelli Wenzel, 1996, Trichobius affinis Wenzel, 1976, Trichobius silvicolae Wenzel, 1976, and Hershkovitzia inaequalis Theodor, 1967 were collected for the first time in Brazil. Strebla consocia Wenzel, 1966, Strebla galindoi Wenzel, 1966, Trichobius dugesioides phyllostomus Guerrero, 1998, and Trichobius joblingi Wenzel, 1966 are new records for state of Amazonas. Noctiliostrebla maai Wenzel, 1966, Basilia dubia Guimarães & D'Andretta, 1956, and Basilia ferruginea Miranda Ribeiro, 1903 are new records for state of Pará.

ABSTRACT

Species of batflies of bats from Amazonas and Pará, Brazil are reported. Eleven species of Streblidae and three of Nycteribiidae were found on nine species of bats, belonging to seven genera. Pseudostrebla greenwelli Wenzel, 1996, Trichobius affinis Wenzel, 1976, Trichobius silvicolae Wenzel, 1976, and Hershkovitzia inaequalis Theodor, 1967 were collected for the first time in Brazil. Strebla consocia Wenzel, 1966, Strebla galindoi Wenzel, 1966, Trichobius dugesioides phyllostomus Guerrero, 1998, and Trichobius joblingi Wenzel, 1966 are new records for state of Amazonas. Noctiliostrebla maai Wenzel, 1966, Basilia dubia Guimarães & D'Andretta, 1956, and Basilia ferruginea Miranda Ribeiro, 1903 are new records for state of Pará.

AGRADECIMENTOS. Agradecemos ao Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia (INPA) e ao Projeto Dinâmica Biológica de Fragmentos Florestais (PDBFF), pela utilização da infraestrutura das reservas em Manaus. A captura dos morcegos em Manaus foi possível graças ao apoio financeiro provenientes dos Drs. Charles Handley, Elisabeth Kalko e Érica Sampaio, e apoio logístico de Francisco Marques, José Tenasol e Jerônimo Andes. As atividades em Alter do Chão foram possíveis através da utilização da infraestrutura oferecida pelo INPA, através do Dr. William Magnusson, e de bolsas da CAPES e CNPq (doutorado) e York University para o segundo autor. Edivaldo Farias, Adnor Farias Costae Caroline Aires auxiliaram na captura dos morcegos e coletados parasitos.
