Myotis septentrionalis Trouessart, 1897

Northern Myotis

Myotis septentrionalis is a new addition to the mammalian fauna since the publication of Lowery (1974). The first capture of M. septentrionalis was from Winn Parish (Crnkovic 2003). Stevens et al. (2017) produced new records from Jackson, West Feliciana, and Grant parishes, and Hoffman and Chauhan (2020) reported an additional record from Jackson Parish. In addition to these, new specimen records were reported from East Feliciana Parish and new nonvouchered records were provided from De Soto, LaSalle, Ouachita, and Sabine parishes.
