Geography
Country: Bolivia



Coordinate: 14° 8' S, 66° 24' W
Coordinate basis: stated in text

Geography comments: "on the Yacuma River"

Environment
Habitat: tropical/subtropical savanna

Substrate: ground surface

MAT: 26.0

WMT: 26.9

CMT: 22.4

MAP: 2000.0

Habitat comments: savanna that is "inundated almost 7 months a year"
MAT is a minimum and precip is "just below" 2000 mm; CMT and WMT based on station 84658 (Puerto Maldonado)

Methods
Life forms: bats

Sites: 14

Sampling methods: no design,mist nets

Sample size: 454 individuals

Years: 1992, 1995

Days: 51

Net or trap nights: 321

Sampling comments: "3-5 nights" of sampling with "6-12 m" nets at each of 14 sites for a total of 51 nights, 289 hours, and 54,045 mist net meter hours with 2896 net meters (apparently meaning 54045 x 51 / 54,045 = 952 mist net hours); assuming the average net was 9 m, this works out to 2896/9 = 321 net nights
