Passive acoustic sensing has emerged as a powerful tool for quantifying anthropogenic impacts on biodiversity, especially echolocating bat species. To better assess population trends there is critical need accurate, reliable, and open source tools that allow the detection classification of calls in large collections audio recordings. The majority existing are commercial or have focused species task, neglecting important problem first localizing echolocation which particularly problematic...
The interaction between agricultural production and wildlife can shape, even condition, the functioning of both systems. In this study, we i) explored degree to which a widespread European bat, namely common bent-wing bat Miniopterus schreibersii, consumes crop-damaging insects at continental scale, ii) tested whether its dietary niche is shaped by extension type fields. We employed dual-primer DNA metabarcoding approach characterize arthropod 16S COI sequences within faecal pellets...

The Blasius's horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus blasii) shows a fragmented distribution in the European part of its range, and populations are threatened by many human-induced factors. status species Romania largely unknown. In recent years, regular surveys monitoring have confirmed presence north-western Romania, Gălăşeni Cave, Pădurea Craiului Mountains, representing northernmost point R. blasii Europe. our study we investigated whether this colony is genetically isolated from, or related to,...
