广东省蝙蝠新纪录——大黑伏翼

<正>广东南岭地区蝙蝠多样性较为丰富,2000年后发表的9种广东蝙蝠新纪录中即有5种采集于南岭(吴毅等,2001,2005;张燕均等,2010;周全等,2011,2012;陈毅等,2013)。2013年7月21日,我们在保护区动物资源调查过程中,于广东南岭国家级自然保护区八宝山保护站(北纬24°55'43.4″,东经113°0'57.0″,海拔1 000 m)附近的路上夜晚挂网捕捉到一批蝙蝠

New bat record from Guangdong Province in China - Arielulus circumdatus (Temminck,1840)

Three bats (2 males and 1 female)were collected in Babao Mountain (24°55'43.4″N,113° 0′57. 0″E,1 000 ma.s.l),Guangdong Nanling National Nature Reserve,Guangdong Province,China in July,2013. These bats are middle size,with 40. 4 - 41. 6 mm forearm length,and 16. 0 -16. 1 mm greatest length of skull. The pelage was characteristic.On the dorsum,the basal hairs are black,with distinctive yellow-ferruginous and shiny tips. On the abdomen,the basal hairs are black and brown,with paler tips,and differ among throat,chest and abdomen. The tragus is broad with lunar to kidney shape. The margins of the ears and tragus are palm and pale color. These bats were identified as Arielulus circumdatus (Temminck,1840),was and are the first records from Guangdong Province. Previous records suggested that this bat species was only found in Yunnan Province in China,and with very few specimens. The features of morphological structure and the skull of these specimens are given in this paper,and compared with specimens from Yunnan and SE Asia. We also recorded the echolocation calls of these bats,and discuss the taxonomy and distribution of this bat species in China. The specimens were kept in Guangdong Entomological Institute.
