We carried out fieldwork in May, June, July, and August 2008, at the Chiricahua National Monument (ChrNM) and Fort Bowie National Historic Site (FBNHS) in southeastern Arizona. Year 2008 was the ninth year of an on-going ten-year project to monitor and inventory bats for the National Park Service (NPS). A total of ten evenings of netting were spent in the two monuments at five different water sources. One hundred eighty-two bats of 12 species at ChrNM and 27 bats of 4 species at FBNHS were captured in 2008.
