“…Very few records for this species were available in the Province of Salamanca (Hernández-Tabernero 2010). The latest record (Hermida et al 2018) was located in the only UTM 10x10 km quadrant of the study area where we failed to find it. In forests located in Extremadura, relatively close to those studied, it is abundant (Napal et al 2009).…”

“…Previously, whether a species was present in the area was unknown for most species, especially the forest specialists. In total, we provide 26 new records (one species in a UTM 10x10 quadrant) compared to previously published data (Fernández-Gutierrez 2002, Palomo et al 2007, Hernández-Tabernero 2010, Hermida et al 2018.…”

“…It is found in a wide variety of European habitats, while in Mediterranean regions, it occupies mainly montane forests (Nogueras et al 2013, Dietz & Kiefer 2016. M. mystacinus is one of the scarcest species detected using mist-netting in the Iberian Peninsula (Alcalde et al 2008, Nogueras et al 2010, Hermida et al 2012, Nogueras et al 2013, de Paz et al 2015, Hermida et al 2018, Molleda & Fombellida 2018.

“…Although many studies have been carried out in this mountain range on a variety of taxa (Bosch et al 2001, Pardo & Gil 2005, Salvador et al 2007, basic knowledge about distribution, conservation status and natural history of bats remains poor except for a few works (Fernández-Gutierrez 2002, de Paz et al 2015, Hermida et al 2018). This lack of information is particularly marked in the western part of the range, where most of the available data only includes information about cave-dwelling species (Palomo et al 2007, Hernández-Tabernero 2010.…”

Forest-dwelling bats are a poorly studied group in Iberia. Little information is available about their abundance, conservation status, and, for some regions, even their distribution. This is the case in the western sector of the Sistema Central mountain range, an interesting area from a biogeographical point of view that potentially could host rich bat communities. However, there is almost no published information about forest bats in the region. From 2017 to 2019 we carried out acoustic and mistnetting surveys in the province of Salamanca (Western Spain), intending to fill this gap in the faunistic knowledge of the area. Our work has revealed a very diverse bat community, reaching 19 species out of the 31 known in Iberia. We obtained new data for forest-specialist species, including many records of the rare Myotis bechsteinii, Barbastella barbastellus and Nyctalus lasiopterus. Most interestingly, we also found a high abundance of Myotis mystacinus which is rarely captured. This study provides novel information about the distribution, status, and ecology of bats in the forests of one western sector of Sistema Central and highlights the importance of the area for conserving these species in the Iberian context. The large number of new records emphasizes the lack of sampling in the region and the need to get better knowledge to develop informed management and conservation decisions.

“…En la Comunidad de Castilla y León, donde se han llevado a cabo buenas campañas de prospección de quirópteros (Fernández 2002, Drosera 2015, la especie presenta un área de distribución que se sitúa a lo largo del cinturón montañoso que perimetra la Comunidad (Fernández 2002, Drosera 2015, Hermida et al 2018, donde parece preferir hábitats forestales no muy cerrados y con un cierto grado de humedad. Sin embargo, esta especie de murciélago aún no se había citado en Valladolid y Palencia (Fernández 2002, Palomo et al 2007, Quetglas 2015, Drosera 2015, Hermida et al 2018.…”

Divergent altitudinal distributions of bird and bat species richness in a Mediterranean mountain range: patterns and prospects

We studied the distribution of bird and bat species richness in Sierra de Guadarrama (Spain). We observed that bird richness had the highest scores at mid-elevations while bat richness increased monotonically with altitude. Both bird and bat richness were positively related to primary productivity but decreased and increased respectively with woodland cover. In addition, birds tracked vegetation complexity and shrub richness while bats did not track these fine-grained habitat traits. These differences could be related to the spatial scale of habitat use by birds and bats. While birds occur in small home ranges, bats can fly many km away from breeding sites in search of food. The tracking by bats of productive areas would thus blur the effect of fine-grained habitat traits. Our results suggest the need for further research on how the changes observed in productivity and tree cover in these mountains could affect distribution of bird and bat richness.
