First record of Myotis crypticus (Ruedi, Ibanez, Salicini, Juste and Puechmaille, 2019) for Portugal
Description
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Myotis crypticus is a recently described bat species belonging to the Myotis nattereri species complex. Its distribution range is not entirely known and so far has only been found across Italy, southern France, and central and northern Spain. Here we present the first record of M. crypticus for Portugal. In October 2018, one individual of this species was captured at a swarming site within the Natura 2000 Site of Community Importance (SCI) Alvão/Marão in northern Portugal. The morphological identification of the bat in the field was later confirmed molecularly.
