Swarming of bats at underground sites in Britain—implications for conservation ...
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) We investigated the extent of visitation of underground sites during late summer and autumn ('swarming') by bats. Bats were captured at eight cave, mine and tunnel sites in southern England over 6 years (1995–2000). A total of 3077 bats re...
