Consistent individual positions within roosts in Spix’s disc-winged bats by Giacomini, Giada, Chaves-Ramírez, Silvia, Hernández-Pinsón, H. Andrés, Barrantes, José Pablo, Chaverri, Gloriana

“…We focus on the highly cohesive and mobile social groups found in Spix’s disc-winged bats (Thyroptera tricolor) given this species’ use of a tubular roosting structure that forces individuals to be arranged linearly within its internal space. We obtained high scores for linearity measures, particularly for the top and bottom positions, indicating that bats position themselves in a predictable way despite constant roost-switching. …”
