Eurobats Publication Series No5

... Guidelines for Surveillance and Monitoring of Bats

European bats are a species-rich group widely distributed through the range of agricultural and non-agricultural landscapes and habitats that form the wider country-side. The landscape of Europe has been and continues to be affected by intensive and varied human influences that have had widespread and sometimes devastating effects on bat populations. In addition there is continued misunderstanding and prejudice arising from ignorance about bats and their lives and habitats.
As a result of these effects many species are considered endangered, some have even become extinct in certain countries, and all are considered sufficiently threatened to be protected by legislation. The threatened status of bats in Europe means that information on changes in the distribution and abundance of bat species over time is urgently required. Monitoring and surveillance programmes are needed across Europe at varying levels: country, region and Europe wide.
In this publication, general information about surveillance and monitoring schemes is provided; surveillance methods are described and illustrated by examples, species accounts for all bat species occurring in the EURBATS range have been compiled; and national bat monitoring programmes give practical advice.
