| organochlorine residues in three bat species from four localities in maryland and west virginia, 1973. | in 1973, 119 bats of three species were collected from four localities in maryland and west virginia. the collection included 43 big brown bats (eptesicus fuscus), 43 little brown brown bats (myotis lucifugus), and 33 eastern pipistrelles (pipistrellus subflavus). the bats were collected from round top mountain, washington co., md.; trout cave, pendleton co., w. va.; montpelier barn, prince georges co., md. residues of sigmaddt were highest in carcasses of bats from round top mountain, which is ... | 1976 | 826874 |
| genetic structure of little brown bats (myotis lucifugus) corresponds with spread of white-nose syndrome among hibernacula. | until recently, the little brown bat (myotis lucifugus) was one of the most common bat species in north america. however, this species currently faces a significant threat from the emerging fungal disease white-nose syndrome (wns). the aims of this study were to examine the population genetic structure of m. lucifugus hibernating colonies in pennsylvania (pa) and west virginia (wv), and to determine whether that population structure may have influenced the pattern of spread of wns. samples were ... | 2014 | 24591103 |
