Understanding species diversity and species distributions across the region provides a crucial baseline for developing effective conservation plans. Several checklists of bats of Kerala have already been published in combination with other mammal groups. However distribution data has been largely unavailable. A comprehensive bat survey was conducted at 43 different locations across various protected and non-protected areas of Kerala. Bats were monitored using harp traps (398 trap-nights), mist nets (51 trap-nights) and direct roost visits. Our sampling yielded a total of 42 species from 23 genera and seven families, of which three species (Barbastella darjelingensis, Hesperoptenus tickelli and Kerivoula hardwickii) are new records for Kerala and four Vespertilionid species belong to the genus Harpiocephalus, Kerivoula, Murina and Tylonycteris are potentially undescribed species. Previous records of 41 species were also gathered from various literature sources but six of these were not detected during our survey. After collating all the available data, here we produce the first comprehensive review on the distribution and occurrence of 48 bat species and 1 Rhinopomatid). Regional assessment based on the occurrence data further classified bat species into rare (16 spp.), common (13 spp.), abundant (9 spp.), however the status of remaining 10 spp. remains unknown. We also present a simplified dichotomous key for the identification of bats in Kerala.
... Additionally, they also use vegetative roosts, such as treeholes, under the bark of a big Ficus tree, hollow trunk of a Papaw tree, and among the scales of a date palm tree (Bates and Harrison 1997;Phillips 1980). Previously, M. spasma was recorded from geomorphic roosts including caves, mines, and ant holes; it also used man-made roosts including disused wells, under a tall water tank, temples, and houses, and vegetative roosts like hollow trees (Bates and Harrison 1997;Borissenko and Kruskop 2003;Devkar and Upadhyay 2015;Digana 2004;Molur et al. 2002;Yapa 2017). Our results indicate that bats prefer to roost in unoccupied human settlements rather than buildings occupied by humans. ...
Bats spend more than half of their life in roosts, where key life events transpire. Therefore the availability and selection of roosts are important to bats everywhere, and may limit their ability to exploit every habitat, including agricultural landscapes such as paddy fields, orchards and tea plantations. This study aimed to investigate the day roosts used by insectivorous bat species in tea plantations of Sri Lanka. We surveyed 18 tea plantations where we recorded a total of 44 roosts involving five families and nine species of bats ( Hipposideros galeritus , Hipposideros lankadiva , Hipposideros speoris , Rhinolophus beddomei , Rhinolophus rouxii , Megaderma spasma, Pipistrellus ceylonicus , Pipistrellus coromandra and Miniopterus cf . fuliginosus ). Most (26) of the recorded roosts were geomorphic, (11) were anthropogenic, and (7) were in vegetation. H. lankadiva and M. cf . fuliginosus are the only species known to roost exclusively in geomorphic roosts; all others were opportunistic. Although protecting bat roosts is crucial for their conservation, it is challenging in view of existing tea management practices. Therefore, natural roosts should be maintained and protected. The introduction of artificial roosts might increase the number of bats able to forage over tea plantations and maximize their consumption of agricultural pests, thereby increasing tea production.
... In addition, other population data i.e. age (adult or juvenile), sex and reproductive status were also recorded (Ibrahim et al., 2013). Identification of species were made based on taxonomy key of bats for Peninsular Malaysia (Kingston et al. 2009), Medway (1983, Francis (2019), while those in Borneo were identified based on Payne et al. (1985), Borissenko and Kruskop (2003), Shazali et al. (2016), and Phillips and Phillips (2018). The "dental formula" as described by Francis (2019) was used in the identification of unidentified species based on the standard procedure. ...
Abstract: Universiti Putra Malaysia consists of three main areas, namely Serdang maincampus in Selangor (UPMSC), Bintulu campus in Sarawak (UPMKB) and the UPM forestin Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve (AHFR) in Puchong, Selangor, which are all managed bythe university. This article compiles available information regarding bats in UPM besidesupdating the available list of bat species from published and unpublished papers, andrecent sampling using harp traps and mist nets. A total of 36 bat species were reportedin UPM (12 species in UPMSC, 20 species in UPMKB and 21 species in AHFR). Thesebats were from seven families: Emballonuridae (three species), Hipposideridae (fourspecies), Megadermatidae (one species), Nycteridae (one species), Pteropodidae (13species), Rhinolophidae (two species) and Vespertilionidae (12 species). With regards tothe conservation status, one species (Hypsugo macrotis) is categorised as ‘Data Deficient’,five species (Dyacopterus spadiceus, Kerivoula intermedia, K. minuta, Nycteris tragata,and Rhinolophus sedulus ) as ‘Near Threatened’ and one species (Megaerops albicollis )categorised as ‘Vulnerable’ on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. The list of batspecies provided, including those with conservation importance, can serve as a referencefor campus management practices on its environmental activities especially in enhancingbiodiversity value within the campus area.

CO1-Based DNA barcoding for assessing diversity of Pteropus giganteus from the state of Azad
... It was originally described as Discopus denticulus based on several specimens captured from Phong Saly (Phongsali) in northernmost Laos (Osgood, 1932) but later allocated to the genus Eudiscopus as the former was found to be preoccupied (Conisbee, 1953). This enigmatic species of Vespertilionidae has been allocated variously to the subfamily Vespertilioninae (Tate, 1942;Simmons, 2005;Görföl et al., 2019), or, more commonly, as a member of the Myotinae, with uncertain position (Borissenko & Kruskop, 2003;Tsytsulina et al., 2007;Borisenko et al., 2008;Yu et al., 2014;Amador et al., 2018;). In view of its relatively wide distribution, the IUCN categorized it as Least Concern although nowhere it is a common species and it is rarely found in museum collections (Tsytsulina et al., 2007;Soisook et al., 2016;Haslauer, 2019;Yu et al., 2021). ...

On the basis of two recently collected specimens from Meghalaya state in northeastern India, we report the occurrence of the monotypic vespertilionid genus Eudiscopus in the Indian Subcontinent. This taxon has so far been known only from a few localities in Southeast Asia. Our records also constitute a westward range extension of E. denticulus by about 1000 km into eastern South Asia. We provide comparative mensural data of several museum specimens of E. denticulus from Southeast Asia. Additionally, the echolocation call and wing characteristics of this species from Meghalaya are also described. The higher call frequency and lower wing loading and aspect ratio of the Indian E. denticulus indicate adaptation to cluttered environment, corroborating its guild assignment as edge space aerial forager. Molecular comparisons of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequence with samples from Vietnam revealed no genetic variation, despite large geographic distances separating the samples. Phylogenetic reconstructions confi rm that Eudiscopus is a basal Myotinae, but its position relative to Submyotodon and Myotis is still uncertain. Résumé: En se basant sur deux spécimens découverts dans l'état du Meghalaya, au nord-est de l'Inde, nous révélons l'existence d'Eudiscopus denticulus pour la première fois dans le sous-continent indien. Ce genre monotypique n'était connu que de quelques localités en Asie du Sud-Est. Cette découverte au Meghalaya étend par conséquent l'aire connue pour cette espèce de près de 1000 km vers l'ouest. Des données biométriques comparatives avec des spécimens d'Asie du Sud-Est sont présentées. De même, les cris d'écholocation et la morphologie alaire d'E. denticulus du Meghalaya sont aussi analysés. Une combinaison de signaux ultrasonores particulièrement brefs et aigus, ainsi qu'une faible charge alaire couplée à des ailes relativement larges suggèrent qu'E. denticulus est adapté à chasser dans des milieux encombrés, ce qui corrobore son classement dans cette guilde de chauves-souris insectivores. Des séquences mitochondriales du gène cytochrome b sont aussi comparées avec des échantillons vietnamiens et malgré la grande distance géographique qui les sépare, elles ne révèlent aucune différence génétique. Les reconstructions moléculaires basées sur ce marqueur démontrent que le genre Eudiscopus fait bien partie d'une lignée basale parmi les Myotinae, mais sa position exacte relativement aux genres Submyotodon et Myotis reste ambiguë.

The flying fox (Pteropus giganteus) also familiar with the name of the greater Indian fruit Bat belongs to the order Chiroptera and family Pteropodidae. Current research emphasis on the DNA barcoding of P. giganteus in Azad Jammu Kashmir. Bat sequences were amplified and PCR products were sequenced and examined by bioinformatics software. Congeneric and conspecific, nucleotide composition and K2P nucleotide deviation, haplotype diversity and the number of haplotypes were estimated. The analysis showed that all of the five studied samples of P. giganteus had low G contents (G 19.8%) than C (27.8%), A (25.1%) and T (27.3%) contents. The calculated haplotype diversity was 0.60% and the mean intraspecific K2P distance was 0.001% having a high number of transitional substitutions. The study suggested that P. giganteus (R=0.00) do not deviate from the neutral evolution. It was determined from the conclusion that this mtDNA gene is a better marker for identification of Bat species than nuclear genes due to its distinctive characteristics and may serve as a landmark for the identification of interconnected species at the molecular level and in the determination of population genetics. Código de barras de DNA à base de CO1 para avaliar a diversidade de Pteropus giganteus do estado de Azad Jammu e Caxemira, Paquistão Resumo A raposa-voadora (Pteropus giganteus), também conhecida como morcego indiano, pertence à ordem dos Chiroptera e à família Pteropodidae. A presente pesquisa dá ênfase ao código de barras de DNA de P. giganteus em Azad Jammu e Caxemira. Sequências genéticas dos morcegos foram amplificadas, e os produtos de PCR foram sequenciados e examinados por software de bioinformática. De espécies congenérica e coespecífica, foram estimados composição nucleotídica e desvio de nucleotídeos K2P, diversidade de haplótipos e número de haplótipos. A análise mostrou que todas as cinco amostras estudadas de P. giganteus apresentaram baixos teores de G (19,8%) em comparação com C (27,8%), A (25,1%) e T (27,3%). A diversidade de haplótipos calculada foi de 0,60%, e a distância média intraespecífica de K2P foi de 0,001%, com um elevado número de substituições transicionais. O estudo sugeriu que P. giganteus (R = 0,00) não se desviou da evolução neutra. É possível concluir que o gene mtDNA é um marcador favorável para identificação de espécies de morcegos do que genes nucleares por causa de suas características distintivas e pode servir como um marco para a identificação de espécies interconectadas em nível molecular e para a determinação genética de populações.
