Abstract
Eight sites were sampled for bats in the Flathead River Valley of SW BC 24 – 27 July 2014 using a combination of mistnetting and acoustic sampling. Due to close association of bats with riparian habitat, all sites were selected in close proximity to the Flathead River, or near its tributaries. Mistnet capture of bats confirmed the presence of 7 species of bats, all of which were suspected of occurring in the region. These species were as follows: Eptesicus fuscus, big brown bat, Myotis lucifugus, little brown myotis, M. evotis, long-eared myotis, M. volans, long-legged myotis and M. californicus, Californian myotis, Lasionycteris noctivagans, silver-haired bat, Lasiurus cinereus, hoary bat.
