The soundscape of swarming: Proof of concept for a noninvasive acoustic species identification of swarming Myotis bats
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9439
Abstract: Abstract Bats emit echolocation calls to orientate in their predominantly dark environment. Recording of species‐specific calls can facilitate species identification, especially when mist netting is not feasible. However, some taxa, such as Myotis bats can… read more here.

Cranial Biometrics of the Iberian Myotis myotis/Myotis blythii Complex: New Data for Studying the Fossil Record
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Mammalian Evolution"
DOI: 10.1007/s10914-018-9427-z
Abstract: The Myotis myotis/M. blythii species complex, spread across the Western Palearctic, is a problematic group for which the taxonomy of the species is not yet satisfactorily resolved. The Iberian Peninsula played a key role in… read more here.

The effect of short-term food restriction on the metabolic cost of the acute phase response in the fish-eating Myotis (Myotis vivesi)

DOI: 10.1016/j.mambio.2016.11.002
Abstract: Abstract Food restriction affects the activation of the immune system although the metabolic cost associated with mounting such a response has rarely been examined except in model animals. Wild animals are constantly exposed to variations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/zo20033
Abstract: Abstract. The large-footed myotis (Myotis macropus) is a specialist trawling bat with flexible roosting behaviour, being able to switch between caves, tree hollows and artificial roosts such as bridges, tunnels and culverts. However, little is… read more here.

Summer roosts of “The revenant” flat-headed myotis, Myotis planiceps
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Journal of Mammalogy"
DOI: 10.1093/jmammal/gyaa092
Abstract: The flat-headed myotis (Myotis planiceps) was declared extinct in 1996 but rediscovered in 2004, thus the reference to a revenant, one who came back from the dead, as it was declared extinct in 1996 but… read more here.

Differential selection of roosts by Eastern Small-footed Myotis (Myotis leibii) relative to rock structure and microclimate

DOI: 10.1093/jmammal/gyad037
Abstract: Roost selection by insectivorous bats in temperate regions is presumably influenced by roost microclimates in relation to thermoregulatory strategies, but few studies have included temperature measurements in habitat selection models. Rocky landscape features are an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.15395
Abstract: Age related telomere shortening is considered a hallmark of the ageing process. However, a recent cross-sectional ageing study of relative telomere length (rTL) in bats failed to detect a relationship between rTL and age in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0170534
Abstract: Because they can form seasonal mixed-species groups during mating and maternal care, bats are exciting models for studying interspecific hybridization. Myotis myotis and M. blythii are genetically close and morphologically almost identical, but they differ… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0205647
Abstract: Efforts to conserve bats in the western United States have long been impeded by a lack of information on their winter whereabouts, particularly bats in the genus Myotis. The recent arrival of white-nose syndrome in… read more here.
