There are large swellings on either side of the muzzle caused by supraorbital glands. Dorsal pelage is glossy black; ventral pelage is dark blackish brown except for a white band at margin of ventral pelage and membranes, extending from forearms to pubic region, making a V-shape and extending onto part of the membranes. Ears,face, and membranes are black. Ears are comparatively large, long, and broad, with ribbing on inner surface; there are well-developed fleshy lobes on the lower margin close to lips, extending below eyes; tragus is curved inward, rounded, and comparatively long. There is a well-developed lobe at corner oflips that extends onto lower (wrinkly) and upper (bulbous) lips. Uropatagium stretches to end oftail; calcar extends about halfway between tail and ankles, and there is a rounded postcalcarial lobe. Skull has well-developed supraorbital swellings; thereis little contrast between interorbital and intertemporal widths; there is no sagittal crest. Posterior cusp of I? is present; I° is 40-50% of height of I? above cingulum; P* has well-developed anterointernal cusp on cingulum; P* is much smaller than P*; lower molars are myotodont. Dental formula for species of Chalinolobusis1 2/3, Cl/1,P 2/2. M 3/3 (x2) = 34.	Mainly found in dry sclerophyll forests and woodlands, but also in cypresspine woodland, rainforest fringes, forest dominated by Callitris ( Cupressaceae ), tall open forest with rainforest understory, riparian vegetation in farmland, subalpine woodland, and sandstone outcrop areas. Usually found at elevations above 1500 m .	Large-eared Pied Bats fly relatively slowly, with rapid but shallow wingbeats. They fly directly, with moderate maneuverability, and have been seen flying along creek beds and mid-canopy level 6-10 m aboveground. In the Blue Mountains of New South Wales , they preferred foraging in sharp grassland-forest borders in a western-facing valley and over a creek with wet vegetation. They are insectivorous but the specific diet has not been recorded.	Large-eared Pied Bats breed once a year, and males with enlarged testes have been recorded during autumn and early winter. The facial glands on either side of the muzzle become swollen during this time as well, exuding a milky secretion when compressed; these glands may have some secondary sexual function, but this has not been studied. Exact time of mating is uncertain, but is probably in autumn, with sperm storage in males and females through winter, as in congeners; but they mayjust breed during spring. Females have been reported forming maternity colonies of 20-40 individuals from November to February in roof domes in sandstone caves. Females give birth to 1-2 young (average 1-8 per female) during late November and early December in Copeton; young were weaned around late January. Volant young have been recorded by late February. Banding records show that females can give birth when twelve months old.	The Large-eared Pied Bat forages throughout the night and returns to the day roost before dawn. It probably hibernates through colder portions of winter, but this has yet to be confirmed. Day roosts include rock overhangs, caves, mine tunnels, and the abandoned bottle-shaped mud nests of fairy martins (Petrochelidon ariel ). In the sandstone country of central New South Wales roosts occur primarily in overhangs or “pock-holes” on vertical cliff walls. Call shape is a short FM/QCF sweep.	[arge-eared Pied Bats typically roost in the twilight zone, where small numbers huddle together in indentations or crevices in the sandstone ceiling. Maternity colonies are often formed in caves, and females will stay in the caves for about another month after young become volant, continuing until late March; then they switch to a new summer roosting location. They go back to the same roost year after year. Colonies typically number under ten individuals, although up to 80 have been recorded at some roosts. In the Blue Mountains of New South Wales , females occupied a larger foraging area than males, and also roosted separately from them; females also roosted further from their foraging areas than males, and showed less roost fidelity. The Large-eared Pied Bat occasionally occupies the same rock overhangs as Eastern Cavet Bat ( Vespadelus troughtoni ).	Classified as Near Threatened on The IUCN Red List. The Large-eared Pied Bat is considered uncommon or rare throughout much ofits distribution, with most records coming from northern New South Wales . However, populations of these species are considered stable, and they are more widespread than previously thought. Major threats include roost disturbance and destruction, coal mining, deforestation for agricultural and urban expansion, and predation by feral cats and other introduced animals. In New South Wales , the species is found at low densities with a patchy distribution, being commonest in Pilliga and Sydney sandstone regions. The species is listed as vulnerable at the state and federal level in Australia .

The species also qualifies as Vulnerable under criteria A2c as there is an inferred 30% past and continuing decline in the number of mature individuals over the last three (3) generations (GL = 5.6 years; Pacifici ;et al. ;2013) as 30% of the species area of occupancy burnt during wildfires in 2019-2020 alone and by high levels of historic and ongoing vegetation clearance and degradation across its range (Woinarski ;et al. ;2014).	Large-eared Pied Bats are generally found in areas with extensive cliffs, escarpments or rocky outcropping, typically sandstone but also other geological substrates that it uses for roosting (Pennay 2008). It forages in a broader range of habitats surrounding these rocky areas including dry and wet sclerophyll forests and woodland, subalpine woodland, open Eucalypt forest with a rainforest canopy, and at the edge of rainforest habitat (Duncan et al. 1999; Hoye and Schulz 2008, Pennay 2008). It has also been reported roosting in mine tunnels, and Fairy Martin nests. Females give birth to one or two young in December in maternity colonies numbering 20-40 individuals (Pennay 2008).	The species is threatened by disturbance and destruction of roosting sites (including by goats entering caves) (Pennay 2008). Roosting sites may be threatened by subsidence from coal mining. Other threats to the species include: direct mortality and degradation of habitat due to intense wildfire, clearance of foraging habitat for agriculture and urbanisation, and predation by feral animals (Woinarski et al. ;2014). An estimated 30% of the species area of occupancy was burnt during wildfires in 2019-2020 alone.	The population of Chalinolobus dwyeri is inferred to have experienced a 30% past decline in population size and number of mature individuals over the past three (3) generations (GL = 5.6 years; Pacifici et al. 2013) due to historic and ongoing high-level of loss and degradation of its habitat (Woinarski et al 2014). At least 30% of the species area of occupancy burnt during wildfires in 2019-2020 alone and the decline is projected to be continuing. Expert estimations of the species total population have ranged between 10,000 (Pennay &; Thompson 2008) and 20,000 individuals (Woinarski et al. 2014) and the number of mature individuals would be significantly lower. The total number of individuals in any of the scattered subpopulations is estimated to be less than 1,000 (Woinarski et al. 2014). Numerical analysis of reporting rates in NSW support previous assessments that it is naturally rare as the species accounts for less than 1% (9.9:1000) of all bats reported within its range on average (Pennay 2011).	Decreasing	This poorly-known species is endemic to Australia where it is found in scattered localities in eastern New South Wales and adjacent south-eastern Queensland. Its distribution is severely fragmented and restricted due to the Large-eared Pied Bat’s specific requirements for foraging and roosting habitats (Pennay 2008, Woinarski et al. 2014). Although its extent of occurrence is large (EOO is &gt;20,000 km²), its area of occupancy (AOO) is 1,508 km²; if defined by maternity sites only, the AOO is believed to be smaller than 500 km² (Woinarski et al. 2014). Its strongholds are the sandstone areas of the Sydney Basin, Pilliga, and the Central Queensland Sandstone Belt (Pennay et al. 2011, Woinarski et al. 2014). Modelling of its distribution suggests it requires a combination of sandstone (or other rocky substrate) escarpment for roost and fertile valleys for foraging (Pennay 2008). It has been recorded from sea level to almost 1,500 m elevation at the top of Mount Kaputar in Northern NSW.		Terrestrial	The species has been recorded from a number of protected areas. There is an immediate need protect the few known maternity sites and forest habitats within its area of occupancy. Further research is needed to locate additional maternity roosts and into the species population status, trends, ecology and threats (Woinarski et al 2014).
