湖南省再次发现艾氏管鼻蝠

Murina eleryi Recorded Again in Hunan Province

摘要: 2020年7月20日，在湖南壶瓶山国家级自然保护区(29.9616522˚N，110.6883177˚E，海拔346 m)采集到1只体型较小的雌性管鼻蝠，基于形态特征和线粒体Cyt b基因序列分析，将其鉴定为蝙蝠科管鼻蝠属艾氏管鼻蝠(Murina eleryi)。该蝠种在湖南省的首次分布记录是2007年7月17日在永顺县小溪国家级自然保护区境内采集的一只雄性标本。本次艾氏管鼻蝠雌性个体的发现不仅是在湖南省境内的再次分布记录，而且也将其分布北缘移到了北纬30˚附近，是目前已知该物种的最北分布记录。标本保存在湖南壶瓶山国家级自然保护区管理局野生动物标本室。

Abstract: On the 20th of July, a small female tube-nosed bat was collected in the Hupingshan National Nature Reserve (29.9616522˚N, 110.6883177˚E, altitude 346 m), Shimen County, Hunan Province. Based on both the morphological characteristics and mitochondrial Cyt b gene sequence analysis, it was identified as Eleryi’s Tube-nosed bat (Murina eleryi) of Vespertilionidae. The first distribution record of this species in Hunan Province was a male specimen collected in the Xiaoxi National Na-ture Reserve in Yongshun County on July 17, 2007. This record was not only the second in Hunan Province, but also moved the northern margin of its distribution to about 30˚ North Latitude, which was the northernmost so far. The specimen has been preserved in the Wildlife Collection of Hunan Hupingshan National Nature Reserve Administration.
