Remarks--The worldwide
genus Myotis is diverse in southwestern North America, where many species (Myotis auriculus, Myotis californicus, Myotis evotis, Myotis fortidens, Myotis melanorhinus, Myotis occultus, Myotis thysanodes, Myotis velifer, Myotis vivesi, Myotis volans, and Myotis yumanensis) occurred within 500 km of Terapa in historic times (Bogan, 1999; Lopez-Gonzales and Garcia-Mendoza, 2006; Medellin et al.
White-nose syndrome affects seven bat species in the United States, the majority of which belong to the
genus Myotis. This genus includes the federally endangered Indiana (M.
Several bat species within the
genus Myotis are reservoirs for EBLV-2, BBLV, and the central Asian lyssaviruses ARAV and KHUV (5).
Molecular phylogenetics, Karyotypic diversity, and partition of the
genus Myotis (Chiroptera:Vespertilionidae).
Late summer and autumn activity or swarming at hibernation sites is supposed to be a characteristic behaviour of bats of the
genus Myotis (Parsons et al., 2003a).
Smaller-bodied species, such as those in the
genus Myotis, often are detected across the entire complexity spectrum, whereas larger-bodied or slower-flying species may avoid highly cluttered spaces and are observed more frequently in open-canopied or less structurally complex environments (Aldridge and Rautenbach 1987; Brooks and Ford 2005; Francl 2008; Wund 2006).
Nonetheless, within the
genus Myotis (Chiroptera, Vespertilionidae), distributed worldwide, feeding modes include aerial hawkers, gleaners, water bats and trawlers (Fenton and Bogdanowicz, 2002).
