Myotis (1)
Silvose
1933
Maa R. Lord, 2700 ft., above Ruth, Trinity Co., Calif.
May 26, 1933
Not common. Generally seen close to
trees or near brushy hillsides. Fly low
and erratically. Easily distinguished from
Lasionycteris by smaller size, more
twisting flight at lower level 5-10
yds., and occurrence near the brush
or trees.
May 29, 1933
Several seen at late evening at
willows at river's edge. So quick is
the flight of this bat & too darting
his movements close to the
shore or ground that one rarely obtains
a glimpse of one above the horizon
long enough to aim adequately and
shoot.
Horse Mt., 4700-5200 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif.
June 7, 1933
None seen.
