Many species require or use down wood (fine and coarse woody debris) as habitat. Where
forestry has been practiced for several rotations large proportions of these species are …

Many regions confront potentially competing goals: sustaining biological diversity and
extracting wood products from forests rich in biological diversity. Forests of the Pacific …

Summary 1 Cavity quality is important for the productivity and survival of many species of
tree‐dwelling wildlife. Intensive land management practices, such as logging and …

Bats spend more time roosting than in any other activity. Thus, it is not surprising that some
researchers have argued that roost availability influences the diversity of bat communities …

To assess habitat use by foraging bats in southern British Columbia, Canada, we used
narrow band bat detectors and estimated insect availability with light-suction traps. We …

Abstract During 1993 and 1994, we radiotracked 11 adult female and juvenile northern bats
(Myotis septentrionalis) to 32 roost trees: 18 silver maples (Acer saccharinum), 1 red maple …

We followed nine radiotagged female California bats (Myotis californicus) to 19 roosts in
trees at two study sites in southcentral British Columbia. Bats regularly switched roosts and …

The soprano pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pygmaeus) is a house-dwelling bat, whose maternity
colonies are often affected by exclusion from buildings in southern Europe. Bat boxes with a …

The fragmentation of forests by the expansion of agriculture is recognized as an important
factor influencing worldwide declines of forest-dependent species. Species that are forest …

To understand bat biology and appreciate their dependence on and role within forested
ecosystems, the biological resolution at which studies are directed must elucidate species …
