About: Evening bat is a research topic. Over the lifetime, 68 publications have been published within this topic receiving 1150 citations. The topic is also known as: Nycticeius humeralis.
TL;DR: Data regarding growth, development, and wing loading of Nycticeius humeralis and information that is available for some other species of bats are compared and discussed.
Abstract: Selected aspects of growth and development of young evening bats are presented and summarized. In addition, information on wing loading and development of flight in known-age animals is given. Data regarding growth, development, and wing loading of Nycticeius humeralis and information that is available for some other species of bats are compared and discussed.
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of fire on habitat selection of many vertebrate species, but no studies have reported the effect offire onbat roosting habitat, however, prescribed burning is used as a restoration and management technique in many deciduous forests of eastern North America.
TL;DR: Support is provided for continued use of prescribed fire and overstory thinning to restore hardwood forest to woodland and savanna and as a strategy to maintain and enhance habitat for forest bats in the Southeastern U.S.
TL;DR: Movement patterns appear to be related to thermor?gulation and to water conservation in the evening bat Nycticeius humeralis during the summer of 1971 in northern Missouri.
Abstract: Roosting behavior was investigated in the evening bat Nycticeius humeralis during the summer of 1971 in northern Missouri. Adult females arrived at maternity colonies by early May. They gave birth by mid-June and had all begun their southern migration by mid-September. Females nursed their own offspring during the 1st 2 weeks subsequent to birth; then they nursed any approaching young until weaning. Weaning and foraging flights by the young occurred simultaneously. Adults were found at higher temperatures during lactation than during pregnancy or postlactation. Following weaning, juveniles were found at higher temperatures than postlactating adults. Movement patterns appear to be related to thermor?gulation and to water conservation.
