The subfamily Lonchorhininae encompasses 6 species of sword-nosed bats ( Lonchorhina ) and is one of the most problematic lineages in the Neotropical leaf-nosed bats (Phyllostomidae) phylogeny. There are at least 5 different hypotheses to explain when the subfamily diverged from the remaining phyllostomids, but none with robust statistical support....

The subfamily Phyllostominae (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae) comprises 10 genera of Microchiroptera bats from the Neotropics. The taxonomy of this group is controversial due to incongruities in the phylogenetic relationships evident from different datasets. The genus Lophostoma currently includes eight species whose phylogenetic relationships have not...

... Na citogenética comparativa, a pintura cromossômica se destaca por usar sondas cromossomo-específicas entre espécies, sendo um método de escolha para comparação do genoma. Dessa forma, permitindo elucidar homologias cromossômicas baseadas em sequências de DNA conservado, auxiliando na citotaxonomia e na interpretação dos rearranjos cromossômicos que ocorreram durante a evolução (Ferguson-Smith et al. 1998;O´Brien et al., 1999;Pieczarka et al., 2005;Sotero-Caio et al., 2015) e em estudos filogenéticos (Volleth et al., 2002;Benathar et al., 2019). ...
... Lonchorhina aurita pertence a subfamília Lonchorhininae, cuja posição filogenética entre os filostomídeos ainda é bastante discutida e sem um consenso (Baker et al., 2016;Amador et al., 2018). Entretanto, recentemente dados de pintura cromossômica de L. aurita realizados em Pernambuco, sugerem compartilhamento de rearranjos com espécies da subfamília Phyllostominae, resultando em um agrupamento irmão entre as duas subfamílias (Farias et al., 2021). ...
... Nas espécies de morcegos analisadas em PE, após a impregnação com AgNO 3 , foi possível estabelecer que o número de RONs variou de 1 a 6 em Phyllostomidae e até 4 na família Mo- velaram que mesmo que L. aurita esteja ameaçada de extinção, ela tem grande potencial adaptativo, revelado pela alta variabilidade genética observada. Para uma espécie em risco de extinção o conhecimento da sua diversidade genética é especialmente importante, uma vez que esta informação está diretamente relacionada ao seu potencial para enfrentar as mudanças ambientais e continuar sua trajetória evolutiva (Frankham et al., 2010). ...
... The cytogenetic approach, using classic analysis or molecular approaches, has been used to characterize the genomes of different and distant taxa [23][24][25][26][27]. The molecular cytogenetic approach through chromosome painting permits the identification of chromosomal homologies at the level of whole or partial chromosomes, as well as interchromosomal rearrangements (translocations, fissions, and fusions) that have occurred during genome evolution. ...
... The human probes specific for the 22 autosomes were mapped through FISH ( Figure 1) on 34 homologous fragments of the haploid set of the C. petaurista chromosomes. The GTG banding karyotype of C. petaurista had 2n = 66, with 22 submetacentric/metacentric chromosome pairs (1-22) and 10 acrocentric chromosome pairs (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32), in agreement with previous findings [30,46]. The X chromosome was the common mammalian type, and the Y chromosome was very small and acrocentric. ...
The Cercopithecini tribe includes terrestrial and arboreal clades whose relationships are controversial, with a high level of chromosome rearrangements. In order to provide new insights on the tribe’s phylogeny, chromosome painting, using the complete set of human syntenic probes, was performed in Cercopithecus petaurista, a representative species of the Cercopithecini tribe. The results show C. petaurista with a highly rearranged karyotype characterized by the fission of human chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 11, and 12. These results compared with the literature data permit us to confirm the monophyly of the Cercopithecini tribe (fissions of chromosomes 5 and 6), as previously proposed by chromosomal and molecular data. Furthermore, we support the monophyly of the strictly arboreal Cercopithecus clade, previously proposed by the molecular approach, identifying chromosomal synapomorphies (fissions of chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 11, 12). We also add additional markers that can be useful for deciphering arboreal Cercopithecini phylogeny. For example, the fission of chromosome 8 is synapomorphy linking C. petaurista, C. erythrogaster, and C. nictitans among the arboreal species. Finally, a telomeric sequence probe was mapped on C. petaurista, showing only classic telomeric signals and giving no support to a previous hypothesis regarding a link between interspersed telomeric sequences in high rearranged genomes.
