Abstract

Recent extensive bat surveys between 2010 and 2013 in Kunashir Island and the middle part of Iturup Island have brought about new important contributions on the bat fauna in islands. In Kunashir Island, we found 7 of the 8 species (Barbastella leucomelas, Plecotus sacrimontis. Myotis gracilis, My.ikonnikovi, My macrodactylus , My.petax and Murina ussuriensis), which were previously reported, and 2 additional species ( Eptesicus nilssonii and Myotis nattereri),which has been reported, In the middle part of Iturup Island, we found all of the 4 species( Eptesicus nilssonii,Plecotus sacrimontis, Myotis gracilis and My. petax ),which were previously reported. Our surbeys show that Kunashir Island habbors at least 6 bat species more than Iturup Island.
