Hoary Bat
The hoary bat (''Lasiurus cinereus'') is a species of bat in the vesper bat family, Vespertilionidae. It lives throughout most of North America (and possibly also in Hawaii, although this is disputed). Taxonomy The hoary bat was described as a new species in 1796 by Palisot de Beauvois. Beauvois noted that the holotype was collected in the US state of Pennsylvania by an individual identified as "Master Pancake". It has many taxonomic synonyms, including ''Vespertilio pruinosis'' ( Say, 1823) and ''Atalpha mexicana'' ( Saussure, 1861). Mammalogist Harrison Allen was the first to use its current name combination of ''Lasiurus cinereus'', doing so in 1864. In a later publication, Allen placed it in the now-defunct genus ''Atalapha'', with a scientific name of ''Atalpha cinerea''. The South American hoary bat (''L. villosissimus''), which is found throughout South America, and the Hawaiian hoary bat (''L. semotus''), which is endemic to Hawaii, were both previously classified u ...

Hawaiian Hoary Bat
The Hawaiian hoary bat (''Lasiurus semotus''), also known as ''ōpeapea'', is a species of bat Endemism, endemic to the islands of Hawaiian Islands, Hawaii. The Hawaiian hoary bat occupies the major Hawaiian islands, making it the only extant and native terrestrial mammal in the islands. Some studies report that the mainland hoary bat lives in sympatry on the Hawaiian Islands alongside the Hawaiian hoary bat, although this is disputed. The Hawaiian hoary bat was officially named the state land mammal of Hawaii in 2015. It is a federally listed endangered species, endangered taxon of the United States. The Hawaiian hoary bat is listed as endangered under the Endangered Species Act. The Hawaiian hoary bat faces threats including habitat loss, collisions with man-made structures such as wind turbines and barbed wire, pesticide impacts on primary food sources, predation and competition with invasive species, roost disturbance, and tree cover reduction.

Minor Red Bat
The minor red bat (''Lasiurus minor'') is a species of bat from the family Vespertilioninae. It is found in the Bahamas, Hispaniola (both the Dominican Republic and Haiti), and Puerto Rico in the Caribbean, though there are only six known individuals in the latter. Diet and behaviour The minor red bat is a solitary, insectivorous species that forages in open areas and rests among the leaves of trees. It is a swift flier, though it is not highly maneuverable. Conservation Hurricanes, habitat destruction, and human population growth are several factors leading to a decreasing population trend, and the minor red bat is listed as vulnerable by the IUCN Red List due to ongoing population reduction and a small geographic range.

Lasiurus Insularis
The Cuban yellow bat (''Lasiurus insularis'') is a species of bat from the family Vespertilioninae. It was previously included as a subspecies of the northern yellow bat, a species that has a similar ecology and biology. The species is endemic to Cuba, specifically the Las Villas Province in Cienfuegos, and it is listed under the IUCN Red List The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, also known as the IUCN Red List or Red Data Book, founded in 1964, is an inventory of the global conservation status and extinction risk of biological ... as vulnerable due to its ongoing population reduction and relatively small geographic range.

Western Red Bat
The western red bat or desert red bat (''Lasiurus frantzii'') is a species of microbat in the family Vespertilionidae. It is found in western North America and Central America. Taxonomy Previously, it was believed to be a subspecies of the southern red bat (''Lasiurus blossevillii''), and was called ''Lasiurus blossevillii teliotis'' (abbreviated ''L. b. teliotis''). The western red bat is also very similar to the eastern red bat and is distinguished from each other by minor differences, such as the lack of white-tipped hair in the dorsal pelage in the western red bat and the presence of sparse fur in the lower third of their tail. Their habitats are separated by the Rocky Mountains and may overlap. Distribution and habitat The western red bat is found across western North America, ranging from southern Canada, through the western United States, down to Central America. The species has been recorded in Belize, Canada, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

This is one of the least well-known species of bats in Jamaica. No specimens have been recorded from within caves or near caves so this appears to be a tree-roosting bat. It is caught over water.

Seminole Bat
The Seminole bat (''Lasiurus seminolus'') is a species of bat in the family Vespertilionidae. Taxonomy The Seminole bat was first described in 1895 by Samuel N. Rhoads. The holotype had been collected in Tarpon Springs, Florida in 1892 by William S. Dickinson. Rhoads placed it in the now-defunct genus ''Atalpha'', identifying it as a subspecies of the eastern red bat with a scientific name of ''Atalpha borealis seminolus''. In 1932, the name ''Lasiurus seminolus'' was applied to the taxon for the first time by Earl Lincoln Poole. Description The Seminole bat is often confused with the red bat. This is due to the coloring of the Seminole bat, which is a mahogany color with a frosted look due to white tipped dorsal hairs. Coloring is not sexually dimorphic, meaning that males and females are similar in color. Average weight is around 12 grams with females being larger than males. Diet Seminole bats are insectivores. Insectivores are animals that feed primarily on insects ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Pfeiffer's Red Bat
Pfeiffer's red bat (''Lasiurus pfeifferi'') is a species of bat from the family Vespertilioninae and is endemic to Cuba. It is listed as Near Threatened by the IUCN Red List due to a significant population decline, caused by human population density on its endemic island, habitat conversion, and hurricanes. The species is likely insectivorous; fecal matter samples from a single bat contained only beetles. It may be a subspecies of the Seminole bat.
