Compliance surveys for Myotis septentrionalis increases opportunity for long term bat monitoring at Acadia National Park
Heilakka C and Connery B. 2015. Compliance surveys for Myotis septentrionalis increases opportunity for long term bat monitoring at Acadia National Park. National Park Service, Acadia National Park
"The recent listing of the northern long-eared bat, Myotis septentrionalis, requires Acadia National Park to assess how our cyclic trail and facility maintenance could be affecting the habitat and the incidental taking of this listed species. Ultrasound detectors were placed at three long-term monitoring sites: Jordan Pond, Bubble Pond and Sieur de Monts throughout the summer to assess when bat species where beginning to emerge and arrive on Mount Desert Island."
