Abstract
RESUMENCon base en ejemplares capturados en la cueva “Los Laguitos”, Chiapas, se da a conocer el primer caso de braquidactilia en un murciélago mexicano, que corresponde a un juvenil de Leptonycteris yerbabuenae. Asimismo, reportamos dos nuevos casos del fenotipo “manchas blancas” en murciélagos mexicanos; uno corresponde a un juvenil de Natalus mexicanus y el otro a una hembra adulta de Mormoops megallophyla. Éstos representan el primer y segundo caso de su especie respectivamente.Palabras clave: Braquidactilia, fenotipo de manchas blancas, hipopigmentación, leucismo, murciélagos tropicales, piebaldismo.ABSTRACTWith specimens captured in the cave “Los Laguitos”, Chiapas, Mexico, here we report the first case of brachydactyly for a Mexican bat, which corresponds to a juvenile of Leptonycteris yerbabuenae. Likewise, we report two new cases of the “white spots” phenotype for Mexican bats, one corresponds to a juvenile of Natalus mexicanus and the other to an adult female of Mormoops megallophyla, which represent the first and second cases of their species, respectively.Key words: Brachidactily, hypopigmentation, leucism, piebald, tropical bats, white spots phenotype.
