Extremely high mortality of newborn juveniles in the nursery colony of Myotis myotis at Žihobce, SW Bohemia, Czech Republic (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) [Extrémně vysoký úhyn čerstvě narozených mláďat v mateřské kolonii netopýra velkého (Myotis myotis) v Žihobcích v jihozápadních Čechách (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae)]

Jaroslav Červený, Luděk Bufka
In 2020, an extremely high mortality of juveniles was recorded in a nursery colony of Myotis myotis at Žihobce (Klatovy Dist.), reaching 50.6% of the potential growth. Most juveniles died within two weeks of age (67.4%). The cause of this phenomenon is not known. The results of chemical analyses…

Advanced survey effort required to obtain bat assemblage data in temperate woodlands (Chiroptera) [Pokročilé prieskumné úsilie je potrebné na získanie údajov o spoločenstve netopierov v lesoch mierneho pásma (Chiroptera)]

Morgan Hughes, Scott K. Brown, Stefano S. K. Kaburu, Simon T. Maddock, Christopher H. Young
There is a lack of precise guidelines concerning the survey effort required for advanced bat surveys in temperate European woodlands, resulting in a lack of standardisation in survey methods. In this study we assess catch data from 56 bat trapping surveys at 11 UK woodland sites in order to provide…

Contribution to the natural history of Barbastella barbastellus in Turkey (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) [Příspěvek k biologii ďasíka černého (Barbastella barbastellus) v Turecku (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae)]

Hairs of wild Felis silvestris silvestris and domestic Felis catus – are they distinctive after all? (Carnivora: Felidae) [Srst kočky divoké (Felis silvestris silvestris) a kočky domácí (Felis catus) – jsou přítomny rozdíly či nikoli? (Carnivora: Felidae)]

Lisa Lehmann, Clara Stefen
This study addressed the question whether it is possible to clearly differentiate between wild and tabby domestic cats on the basis of hairs (guard hairs in particular). The colour banding pattern of individual hairs is studied in this context for the first time. Also, hair length and width, as well…
