- Combination of frugivorous, nectarivorous and hematophagous bats.
- Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies

- Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group
- Insectivorous adult male bats caught in southern Brazil. Insectivorous bats have a specialized diet based on arthropods, adaptations include echolocation calls that allow tracking and capturing small fast-moving prey.
