This guide presents all 45 bat species that regularly occur in Europe, covering the latest findings in bat evolution, behaviour and echolocation, along with species accounts covering life history, conservation status and identification, including echolocation characteristics, and distribution maps. It is a useful reference for identification of bats in hand including keys.

This is part of our Good Practice Guidance for Bats, produced by Becky Collins.
