Spatial distribution of mitochondrial and microsatellite DNA variation in Daubenton's bat within Scotland
Abstract Daubenton's bat ( Myotis daubentonii ) is a known reservoir for European bat lyssavirus type 2 (EBLV‐2). An appreciation of the potential for epidemiological spread and disease risk requires an understanding of the dispersal of the primary host, and any large‐scale geographical barrier...

Abstract Daubenton's bat ( Myotis daubentonii ) is a known reservoir for European bat lyssavirus type 2 (EBLV‐2).
