Notes on biogeography of Cuban bats
Rojas Martín, Danny
Biogeography of Cuban bats have been received a general attention and little particular analyses of internal events referred to the origins, diversification, and extinction of Cuban bats have been made. On thebasis of recent discoveries of two fossils and one extant species, and other recent publications, we approach to the historical biogeography of the Cuban microchiropteran fauna in an attempt of reconciling the hypothesis ofdispersal and vicariance, recognizing that in some cases taxon-specific hypotheses are required. Special attention has been paid to the relationship between the bat fauna of Isla de Cuba and Isla de Pinos.
