DAUBENTON'S BAT 
visits to an artificial cave in the sandstone near Godalming, vs^here I 
found two hibernating. These were in small crevices among the stones 
in the roof of the cavern and soon became lively when brought into 
a warm room. In summer Daubenton's Bat will often use a hollow tree 
as a retreat during daylight. 
From the observations of Mr. Moffat {Irish Naturalist, 190S) P- 106- 
107) it appears to fly throughout the night. Its winter retirement is 
said to last from the end of September till April. 
NATTERER'S BAT. 
Myotis Naltereri, Kuhl^H^m|||||^ 
Plate j. 
This species, the Reddish - grey Bat of Bell, measuring in expanse 
of wings 1 1 inches or sometimes less, is easily distinguished from any 
other British Bat by the interfemoral membrane, which is fiirnished 
along its margin, between the end of the calcar or spur and the tail, 
with a fringe of stiff hairs not unlike the teeth of a tiny comb. It is 
also the lightest in colour of all our Bats. 
The ears are large and comparatively long ; the tragus, which is 
about two-thirds the length of the ear, is narrow and pointed. There 
are two prominent glands on each side of the upper part of the 
muzzle, which is long, naked about the nostrils and lips but fringed with 
hairs, more or less concealing the eyes. The gape is wide, the point 
of the lower jaw below the lip frirnished with longish hairs. The 
teeth number thirty-eight. The wings, compared with those of the 
other members of this genus, are long and broad, the feet small. The 
fijr is soft and long, the colour of the upper parts a pale brown.
