Abstract
Of 30 bats belonging to four species, only one species, Brachyplylla cavernarum, yielded positive for Histoplasma capsulatum. Bats were collected at the Aguas Buenas Caves in Puerto Rico. The other species are: Artibeus jamaicensis, Monophyllus redmani portoricensis, and Erophylla bibombifrons; these resulted negative for the fungus.
