Notes on the lesser white-lined bat, Saccopteryx leptura (Schreber) (Chiroptera, Emballonuridae), from southeastern Brazil

Abstract

*[Saccopteryx leptura (Schreber, 1774) is reported from two new localities in SE Brazil, both in Atlantic forest remains in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Analysis of food material showed that individuals from both localities had preyed on insects on Hymenoptera. Cheek contents were available from one bat specimen, and in this case the food item was Pheidole sp. flying ants.]
