Summary

Hawaiian hoary bats ('ōpe'ape'a; Lasiurus semotus) were captured and tracked back to roosting locations on Hawaiʻi Island. Roost perch metrics were observed and collected from 2019 to 2021. We observed a total of 69 perches used by 52 bats (16 female; 22 male; 14 unknown) within 44 roost trees. This data file includes data pertaining to roost perch locations, dates, height, canopy cover, and aspect.

Purpose

Hawaiian hoary bats ('ōpe'ape'a; Lasiurus semotus) were captured, radio-tagged, and tracked for studies of habitat use, diet, roosting ecology, movement, and population genetics. Here we present details of the roost perch metrics collected for these studies.
