Winter roosting ecology of eastern red bats in Southwest Missouri

Article Abstract:

An examination of the utilization of the winter roosts of the eastern red bats (Lasiurus borealis) in southwest Missouri, USA, reveals that they overwinter in regions with great temperature changes. It was observed that roost sites occurred more frequently in sites with least canopy cover, and they shifted from tree roosts to leaf litter roosts when temperatures approached or fell below freezing point.

Range extent and stand selection for roosting and foraging in forest-dwelling northern long-eared bats and little brown bats in the Greater Fundy Ecosystem, New Brunswick

Article Abstract:

The species- and gender-specific criteria of summer range extent and stand selection for roosting and foraging in northern long-eared bats (Myotis septentrionalis) and little brown bats (M. lucifugus) in the Greater Fundy Ecosystem, New Brunswick, Canada is studied. It is inferred that the gender effects is significant for the precise characterization of forest habitats and research on bats.

Interspecific and intersexual variation in roost-site selection of Northern long-eared and little brown bats in the Greater Fundy National Park ecosystem

Article Abstract:

Female northern long-eared bats (Myotis septentrionalis) were found to roosted alone or as part of maternity colonies in mature, shade-tolerant deciduous stands. The consistent availability of female northern long-eared bat roosts is attributed to the creation of suitable sites by continuously occurring, individual-tree stressors in mature shade-tolerant forests.
