Mammals

Alcathoe bat (Myotis alcathoe) is a species of vesper bat in the family Vespertilionidae, placed in the genus Myotis and subfamily Myotinae. It was described by von Helversen & K.-G. Heller in von Helversen, K.-G. Heller, F. Mayer, Nemeth, Volleth, & Gombkötő in 2001. Other common names recorded for it are Alcathoe Bat, Alcathoe Myotis and Alcathoe Whiskered Bat. The Mammal Diversity Database gives its type locality as netted over a small stream, the Fournikos Potamos, near the village of Kleistos (39°05'N, 21°49'E), Novos Evritanias, Greece. It is recorded from Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Luxembourg, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, Ukraine and United Kingdom, with Azerbaijan listed as probable in the Palearctic realm. That database treats it as a living species and lists its conservation status as Not Evaluated. The sources read give little more on its diet, roosting habits or numbers, and none is claimed here.
