“…adversus, M. hasseltii, and M. horsfieldii in body size and habitat use (Kingston et al, 2006). However, the wing membranes attach directly to the ankle in M. adversus and M. hasseltii, and directly to the metatarsus in M. horsfieldii (Bates and Harrison, 1997;Bates et al, 2005). Moreover, P 2 is completely in line with the toothrow in M. adversus and displaced inward in M.…”

National Park is one of the last refuges protecting intact forest and a representative mammalian fauna in Sumatra. However, knowledge of bat diversity in the area is limited. From 2010 to 2012, 47 bat species were recorded through a series of surveys in 12 localities within and around the national park. An additional six species from the area were identified from the mammal collection of the Museum Zoologicum Bogoriense, Indonesia. At least seven of the species reported in this study are new records for Sumatra, including Kerivoula krauensis, K. lenis, K. minuta, Murina rozendaali, Myotis horsfieldii, Myotis cf. borneoensis, and Rhinolophus borneensis/celebensis. Moreover, a finding of two distinct morphs of Chironax melanocephalus coexisting in the study area indicates another possible undescribed species. With 60 species, we consider Bukit Barisan Selatan Landscape to be a Southeast Asian bat diversity hotspot and of critical importance in maintaining bat diversity in Sumatra.

“…This is the first published record of Glischropus from Cambodia. In Myanmar, Bates et al (2005) cited a single record from Blanford (1888-91) who mentioned G. tylopus from the Karen Hills. No further data was given in these papers.…”

A new species of Glischropus from the Indochinese Subregion (Mammalia: Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae)

Within the tribe Pipistrellini, the genus Glischropus is very close to the genus Pipistrellus both in its external morphology and chromosomal features but can be unequivocally distinguished from the latter by the presence of thumb pads and the position of the second incisor. One of the two known species, G. tylopus was thought to have a wide distribution range from Myanmar to the Philippines, while the other, G. javanus is only known from Java. Recently collected Cambodian specimens of Glischropus are distinguished from their congeners by longer forearm and cranial features (the shape of the skull and the upper incisors and certain craniodental measurements) and are consequentially, described here as a new species. Based on thorough examination of the available museum material, it can be concluded that all specimens of G. tylopus previously collected in the Indochinese zoogeographic subregion are in fact representatives of this new species, while G. tylopus in a strict sense is restricted in the mainland to south of the Isthmus of Kra.

“…Adaptation to environments is a possible reason for the distribution of H. cadornae bats throughout the Indomalayan region. It has been reported that H. cadornae can roost on banana trees or a dry bamboos in a lowland forest (Bates et al 2005). In our surveys, H. cadornae bats were captured from an old building, a concrete bridge, and sabal trees in villages, which were partly or entirely surrounded by lowland forests.…”

“…Nine body and 12 skull morphological features were measured using a vernier caliper (0.01 mm) according to ; Furey et al (2012). Compared with H. pulveratus, H. cadornae ( Figure 1A) bats have a less distinctive dorsal pelage (Bates et al 2005;Görföl et al 2014). The forearm length ranged from 31.7 to 37.1 mm.…”

“…Because of strikingly differences in skull and baculum, it was later separated from H. savii and H. lophurus and considered as a distinct species (Bates et al , 2019Corbet and Hill 1992;Hill and Harrison 1987). In 2005, Bates et al described Hypsugo pulveratus as a species morphologically similar to H. cadornae (Bates et al 2005). Whereas H. pulveratus is widely distributed in China (IUCNredlist, Wilson and Reeder 2005), H. cadornae was not found there yet.…”

First records of Hypsugo cadornae (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) in China

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Hypsugo cadornae bats have been found in India, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. In 2017 and 2018, 15 medium size Hypsugo bats were collected from Shaoguan, Guangzhou, and Huizhou in Guangdong, China. Molecular and morphological examinations identified them as H. cadornae. This is the first record of H. cadornae in China. Morphological and ultrasonic characteristics of H. cadornae were compared with its close relative, Hypsugo pulveratus.
