contents (Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The main goal of this study was to contribute for the knowledge of the use of under-roads passageways by bats in northern of Portugal. We selected five underpasses in a road stretch of 8.250 m located in a rural agricultural and grazing area. The average dimensions of underpasses were, 9 m wide, 4.25 m high and 34 m deep. The data was obtained through acoustic detection, mist net capture and roost inspection. Acoustic and mist netting results confirm the use of the underpasses by at least 12 species (Pipistrellus pipistrellus, P. kuhlii, P. pygmaeus, Myotis daubentonii, M. escalerai, M. myotis, Nyctalus leisleri, Plecotus austriacus, Rhinolophus ferrumequinum, R. hipposideros, R. mehelyi/R. euryale and Eptesicus serotinus/E. isabellinus). Data from roost inspection in all the underpasses showed the presence of at least six species (M. daubentonii, M. myotis, N. leisleri, P. austriacus, Eptesicus serotinus/E. isabellinus y Pipistrellus sp.), they used fissure within the tunnels of between 1.2 and 1.9 cm. For the same height (4.2-4.3 m) and width (9m), the underpasses most used were the longest. These results stress the importance of underpasses in improving the connectivity and permeability between areas, along with its potential to offer new roosts for bats. We encourage further monitoring and detailed ecological studies to better understand the physical and environmental characteristics that underpin the usage of such structures by bats.
