Lasiurus borealis View in CoL

(eastern red bat).

— Four specimens ( TTU 82478-82480 , TTU 108166 ) were obtained at Terneros Creek , BBRSP ( Fig. 1 View Figure 1 ) . Along the creek is an area of well-developed riparian vegetation. For an additional description of the habitat, see Brant et al. (2002). Other species of bats collected at this site included Mormoops megalophyla (ghost-faced bat), Myotis californicus (California myotis), M. velifer (cave myotis), Lasiurus cinereus (hoary bat), Lasionycteris noctivagans (silver-haired bat) (see the report by Brant et al. 2002), Parastrellus hesperus (American pipistrelle), Eptesicus fuscus (big brown bat), Corynorhinus townsendii (Townsend’s big-eared bat), Antrozous pallidus (pallid bat), Tadarida brasiliensis (Brazilian free-tailed bat), and Nyctinomops macrotis (big free-tailed bat). This represents the first record of L. borealis from the Park. However, the Terneros Creek property was added to BBRSP after the survey by Yancey (1997).
