地理的範囲

We captured bats at 50 sites in seven Western Asian countries, specifically Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Jordan, Oman, Pakistan, and Türkiye.

生物分類学的範囲

We captured 4,278 individual bats of 41 species belonging to nine families, which represents nearly half of all bat species distributed across the seven focal countries.

時間的範囲

プロジェクトデータ

Western Asia represents a mixing pot of diverse bat species with distributions spanning across other geographic regions such as northern Africa, southern Europe, and southwest Asia. Yet there is a significant gap in coordinated bat research in the region, thereby resulting in a relatively limited number of curated occurrence records (Phelps et al., 2019). An objective of the Western Asia Bat Research Network (WAB-Net) project was to further our knowledge of the diversity and distribution of bat species in this little-studied region.

収集方法

Bats were captured primarily using harp traps and/or mist nets set in flyways or at the entrance to caves or other structures in which bats were roosting. Trapping began approximately 30 minutes prior to sunset and, on average, continued for approximately 5 hours per trap night. Bats were held individually in cloth bags and released at the original site of capture. See ‘Step Description’ for details about data collected from each captured bat.

Method step description:

1. Species identification was based on expert opinion, and when needed, we referred to the Illustrated Identification Key to the Bats of Europe (Dietz and von Helversen, 2004), Mammals of Jordan, 2nd Edition (Amr, 2012), and The Bats of Pakistan - The Least Known Creatures (Mohmood-ul-Hassan et al., 2009) as identification reference keys. In addition, species identification was later confirmed for a subset of individuals of each species per site from each country via barcoding the cytochrome b gene using previously published methods (Townsen et al., 2008).
2. We documented standard morphological measurements and demographic information for each captured individual. We measured forearm length (mm) using a dial caliper and body mass (g) using a spring scale, in addition, we measured ear length (mm), tail length (mm), hind foot length (mm), and head and body length (mm) when necessary to aid in species identification. We assessed age (juvenile/adult) based on visual inspection of ossification of the phalangeal epiphyses, sex (male/female) based on external genitalia, and reproductive condition (females: non-breeding, pregnant, lactating, post-lactating; males: non-scrotal, scrotal as determined by enlarged testes) (Racey, 2009).
