Abstract

In August 2023, three bats were collected in Tianjingshan National Forest Park, Wuwei, Wuhu using harp traps. Two of the bats were identified as Murina huttoni. The other one is of small size with forearm length of 37. 53 mm and the greatest length of the skull of 14. 21 mm. It has a dorsal dark brown fur and its ears are oval-shaped with a funnel-like tubular base and its tragus is elongated. Its dental formula is 2. 1. 3. 3/3. 1. 3. 3 = 38. The above morphological and skull features are consistent with those of Kerivoula furva. The phylogenetic tree based on COI and Cyt b genes also support the specimen as a Kerivoula furva, which is a new bat record for Anhui Province.
