Book Description
The Indiana bat, Myotis sodalis, is classified by the Department of Interior as an endangered species. In developing a plan that will enable the recovery of the bat from its endangered predicament, an extensive search was made for literature concerning the species. This compilation is intended as an aid to biologists and conservationists interested in the animal and its habitats; it is hoped the bibliography will serve as a directory to available information and assist in research efforts on the animal. An attempt has been made to include reports and papers dealing with all aspects of the species, and, therefore, a number of papers included that have not been published. Each numbered item in the bibliography has been read and its contents indexed and cross referenced by subject.

Book Description
Although bats are often thought of as cave dwellers, many species depend on forests for all or part of the year. Of the 45 species of bats in North America, more than half depend on forests, using the bark of trees, tree cavities, or canopy foliage as roosting sites. Over the past two decades it has become increasingly clear that bat conservation and management are strongly linked to the health of forests within their range. Initially driven by concern for endangered species—the Indiana bat, for example—forest ecologists, timber managers, government agencies, and conservation organizations have been altering management plans and silvicultural practices to better accommodate bat species. Bats in Forests presents the work of a variety of experts who address many aspects of the ecology and conservation of bats. The chapter authors describe bat behavior, including the selection of roosts, foraging patterns, and seasonal migration as they relate to forests. They also discuss forest management and its influence on bat habitat. Both public lands and privately owned forests are considered, as well as techniques for monitoring bat populations and activity. The important role bats play in the ecology of forests—from control of insects to nutrient recycling—is revealed by a number of authors. Bat ecologists, bat conservationists, forest ecologists, and forest managers will find in this book an indispensable synthesis of the topics that concern them.
