Pleistocene Bats from San Josecito Cave, Nuevo Leon, Mexico
"Pleistocene Bats from San Josecito Cave, Nuevo León, México" by J. Knox Jones Jr. is a scientific publication written in the mid-20th century. This work focuses on the study of bat fossils found in the San Josecito Cave, detailing specific species from the Pleistocene era, some of which are newly identified within this publication. In the book, J. Knox Jones Jr. provides an in-depth analysis of bat specimens collected from San Josecito Cave, highlighting the morphological characteristics and classifications of various bat species. The research is significant as it introduces the new species Desmodus stocki and offers comparative data on other bat species from both Pleistocene and modern contexts. The text includes cranial measurements, descriptions of the specimens, and insights into the paleobiology of bats, contributing to the understanding of biodiversity and evolutionary history in the region. The findings presented are critical for paleontologists and researchers interested in the mammalian fauna of the Pleistocene epoch in North America.
