Resumo: Thyropteridae é uma família de morcegos endêmica da região Neotropical e Thyroptera devivoi é a única espécie da família que ocorre exclusivamente em manchas florestais das savanas do norte de América do Sul e do Cerrado Brasileiro. Dados primários da espécie são ainda escassos e o objetivo deste estudo foi preencher lacunas de conhecimento sobre distribuição geográfica, uso de abrigos e padrões de ecolocalização da espécie. Nós observamos uma colônia de T. devivoi com 15 indivíduos vivendo sob uma folha morta de palmeira. Os morcegos usaram a folha como abrigo ao menos por quatro dias. Depois de capturar um indivíduo, nós confirmamos a identificação da espécie por meio da morfologia do crânio e do disco adesivo. O novo registro reforça a associação da espécie com formações não florestais e a ocorrência principalmente em savanas. Os chamados de ecolocalização de T. devivoi são consistentes com o conhecido para o gênero, com pulsos multi-harmônicos de baixa intensidade e alta frequência. A despeito destes novos dados, mais estudos são certamente necessários para aprimorar os dados de distribuição assim como os requerimentos biológicos da espécie.

Abstract: Thyropteridae is a family of bats endemic to the Neotropical region, and Thyroptera devivoi is the only species in the family that occurs exclusively in forest patches within savannas of northern South America and north of the Brazilian Cerrado. Primary data on the species are still scarce. Therefore, in this study our objective was to fill knowledge gaps on geographical distribution, roost-use, and echolocation for the species. We observed a T. devivoi colony of 15 individuals living under a dead palm leaf. The bats used the leaf as a roost for at least four days. After capturing one individual, we confirmed the species identification via skull size and the oblong shape of the adhesive disk. The new record reinforces the association of this species with non-forested formations, and its occurrence mainly in savannas. Echolocation calls of T. devivoi are consistent with those known for the genus, with multiharmonic, low intensity and high frequency pulses. Despite these new data, more studies are certainly needed to enhance distribution data for the species, as well as to clarify the biological and ecological requirements of the species.

ABSTRACT The tomato crop is one of the most demanding of nitrogen fertilizers. This element on soil has an elevated mobility that can represent danger to the environment and reduces its efficiency. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the methodology for recommending nitrogen fertilizer for tutored tomatoes with a variable rate based on nitrogen sufficiency index. The treatments consisted of a reference plot and five treatments with the nitrogen sufficiency index calculated on spectral indexes NDVI, GNDVI, MCARI, PSSRa and the SPAD value. The productivity was evaluated considering the fruits size and viability. The descriptors of quality, color, soluble solids, total acidity, titratable acidity and flavor were also evaluated. All the indexes evaluated decreased significantly with the applied nitrogen during the cycle, the only exception being MCARI, which resulted in a similar nitrogen quantity to the reference. The NDVI, GNDVI, PSSRa and SPAD value indexes presented a total applied nitrogen decrease varying from 25.2% to 43.8%, neither reducing significantly the productivity nor the fruits quality. The marketable fruits productivity varied from 2332.9 to 2773.8 g.plant−1 among treatments. Only the NDVI and the SPAD value presented significant improvements on the partial factor of nitrogen productivity, among the applied treatments.
