TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a continental-scale classifier for acoustic identification of bats, which can be used throughout Europe to ensure objective, consistent and comparable species identifications, but the use of acoustic methods at continental scales can be hampered by the lack of standardized and objective methods to identify all species recorded.

Wing measurement variations in the five european horseshoe bat species (chiroptera: rhinolophidae)
TL;DR: It is argued that both size and shape are likely to play a role for niche separation between species, and both sexual and geographic variation within species are found.

Myotis daubentonii is able to catch small fish
TL;DR: Daubenton’s bat (Myotis daubentonii), a Palearctic vespertilionid species hunting for insects floating on or flying close to water surfaces, can take a small fish for prey if the fish penetrates a smooth water surface.

Effects of forearm bands on horseshoe bats (Chiroptera: Rhinolophidae)
TL;DR: It is suggested that banding of horseshoe bats should be limited to well defined projects and only used if the study populations are in a good preservation condition and long term effects of the marking method can be monitored.

TL;DR: The first records of this species are described from Germany, Poland, Albania, and from the European part of Turkey, including the northernmost locality in central Germany, suggesting that the species probably has a more continuous and wider distribution than currently known and might be expected to occur even further to the North.
