Quatro casos positivos para a raiva foram diagnosticados em morcegos de três espécies de molossídeos (um Molossus molossus, um Nyctinomops laticaudatus e dois N. macrotis) do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Três deles foram encontrados durante o dia em locais visíveis e não habituais e o outro entrou pela janela, no início da noite. Quadro descritivo com 19 casos semelhantes, envolvendo oito espécies, é mostrado e indica que morcegos com comportamento atípico devem ser considerados como fortemente suspeitos de estarem doentes, possivelmente com raiva.Four rabid bats belonging to three species of Molossidae (one Molossus molossus, one Nyctinomops laticaudatus and two N. macrotis) were captured in the State of S. Paulo, southeastern Brazil. Three of these bats were found during the day in unusual, visible places and the other came flying through a window in the evening. A descriptive table containing data on 19 similar cases, belonging to eight species, is presented and suggests that bats with atypical behavior must dearly be suspected of being sick, possibly as having rabies.
