Hawaiian hoary bats (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) were captured at multiple locations on the east side of Hawaii Island from May 2019 to October 2019. Radio transmitters were affixed to captured bats and, when possible, radio telemetry was used to locate bats in trees used for day-roosts. In 2019, three maternity roosts were identified however only two were suitable for video recording. Thermal video recording at two maternal roosts was used to identify the time of bat departure and arrival at a roost. We examined an average of 2 hours during sunset and sunrise (range = 0.9 to 5.4 hours). The time of bat departure from a roost ranged from 53 minutes before sunset to 20 minutes after sunset (n = 48, mean = 2.7 minutes...

Hawaiian hoary bats (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) were captured at multiple locations on the east side of Hawaii Island from May 2018 through September 2019. Radio transmitters were affixed to captured bats and, when possible, radio telemetry was used to locate bats in trees used for day-roosts. A total of 23 bat day-roosts were identified to tree and used by 18 bats (10 male; 8 female; 17 adult; 1 juvenile). Three maternity roosts were confirmed. One maternity roost was determined to be a bat that was not captured or radio-tagged but was visually located in a roost tree that was also in use by a radio-tagged bat. During the period of monitoring of telemetered bats (less than one month), multiple roosts were located...

Hawaiian hoary bats (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) were captured at multiple locations on the east side of Hawaii Island from May 2018 through September 2019. Radio transmitters were affixed to captured bats and, when possible, radio telemetry was used to locate bats in trees used for day-roosts. In 2019, three maternity roosts were identified however only two were suitable for acoustic recording. Acoustic detectors were used to record acoustic activity (i.e., echolocation pulses) at two maternity roosts. Song Meter SM4BAT FS ultrasonic recorders (Wildlife Acoustics, Maynard, MA) with SMX-US ultrasonic microphones (Wildlife Acoustics, Maynard, MA) were deployed within 5-m of each maternity roost tree and configured...

Hawaiian hoary bats (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) were captured at multiple locations on the east side of Hawaii Island from May 2018 through September 2019. Radio transmitters were affixed to captured bats and, when possible, radio-telemetry was used to locate bats in forest stands used for day-roosting. A roost’s forest stand was defined as a 50-m radius circle around a roost location, which was established in two ways: 1) a bat was tracked to a specific roost tree location using radio telemetry and/or visual confirmation of a bat’s presence was made, or 2) when a specific roost tree could not be identified, the multiple points and compass bearings recorded during radio-tracking were analyzed with LOAS software...

‘Ōpe‘ape‘a (Hawaiian hoary bats; Lasiurus semotus) were surveyed at 23 sites on Hawaiʻi Island from 33 to 2,341 m elevation from May 2018 to August 2021. Of the 23 sites, 8 were established as fixed survey sites for sampling at repeated intervals from January 2019 through January 2021. We surveyed each fixed site at least once per four-month period (January–April, May–August, September–December), with a survey comprising one to three netting events. Additional opportunistic surveys were conducted at alternate sites or on alternate dates. We captured 138 unique bats (37 female, 101 male) and recaptured 10 bats over 224 mist-netting events. Of the total 148 captured bats we affixed 131 with radio transmitters and...

The Hawaiian hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus semotus), a federally and state listed endangered subspecies, is the only extant native terrestrial mammal in the Hawaiian archipelago. It is an insectivorous, solitary and foliage-roosting species that generally roosts alone or in mother-pup family groups. A total of 58 bats (17 female; 41 male; 56 adult; 2 juvenile) were captured at multiple locations on the east side of Hawaii Island from May 2018 through September 2019. Radio transmitters were affixed to 56 bats including two individuals that were recaptured and radio-tagged twice. When possible, radio telemetry was used to locate bats in trees and forest stands used for day-roosting. A total of 23 trees were identified...

Hawaiian hoary bats (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) were captured at multiple locations on the east side of Hawaii Island from May 2018 through September 2019. Radio transmitters were affixed to captured bats and, when possible, radio telemetry was used to locate bats in trees used for day-roosts. Repeated visits to confirm bat presence were conducted until radio-tagged bats were no longer detected at roosts. A total of 56 bats (40 male; 16 female; 55 adult; 1 juvenile) were captured and radio-tagged, and of these, 33 were tracked to roost (23 male; 10 female; 32 adult; 1 juvenile) of either stand- or tree-level. For this subset of 33 bats, the number of distinct days with confirmed occupancy of a bat at roost at either...

Hawaiian hoary bats (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) were captured at multiple locations on the east side of Hawaii Island from May 2018 through September 2019. Radio transmitters were affixed to captured bats and, when possible, radio telemetry was used to locate bats in trees used for day-roosts. Detection trials for roosting bats were conducted from June to October 2019. Bats confirmed as present at roosts were used as “targets” to evaluate the efficacy of detecting bats with thermal imaging, and when not effective (i.e., during hotter parts of the day when the technique could not discern bats from warm vegetation), visual searching with binoculars was also investigated. Most bat detection trials (48 of 95; 51%) were...
