Asian long-fingered bat

Mammals

The Asian long-fingered bat (Miniopterus fuliginosus), also called the eastern bent-winged bat, is a bat of the family Miniopteridae with a very wide range, which the Mammal Diversity Database places in the Australasian realm. Recorded countries include Afghanistan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Russia, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. Brian Houghton Hodgson described it in 1835 as Vespertilio fuliginosa from Nepal. The database treats it as a species split from Miniopterus schreibersii that tentatively includes blepotis, and records its IUCN Red List status as Not Evaluated.
