| [species structure and dynamics of bat communities (chiroptera: vespertilionidae) hibernating in artificial caves of samara luka]. | long-term data on the composition and absolute and relative abundance of eight bat species hibernating in artificial caves of samara luka are considered. about 13,000 hibernating individuals are annually accounted there. the relative abundance of the species decreased in the following order: myotis brandtii (35%), plecotus auritus (20%), m. daubentonii (13%), m. mystacinus (13%), eptesicus nilssonii (8%), m. dasycneme (8%), and m. nattereri (2%). singular e. serotinus were recorded not every yea ... | 2007 | 18038628 |
| [spatial structure of the community of bats (chiroptera: vespertilionidae) hibernating in artificial caves of samarskaya luka]. | specific features of the spatial distribution and localization of bats have been studied during their hibernation in artificial caves of samarskaya luka. the proportion of cave area occupied by bats varies from 70 to 93% in large caves (> 60000 m2), decreasing to 50% in medium-sized caves (10000-60000 m2) and to less than 30% in small caves (< 10000 m2). approximately 9% of bats choose sites near cave openings, up to 25% prefer central parts, but most bats (about 66%) concentrate in the deepest ... | 2008 | 18946997 |
