All previous records of M. schreibersii from the Maghreb need to be reevaluated because they could potentially belong to M. maghrebensis ; both species are found together in the region and can even share roosts. Monotypic.	So far known only from C & SW Morocco (Middle and High Atlas) and N Tunisia . Possibly occurs continuously across most of the Mediterranean part of N Africa, including Algeria .	Head-body 60 mm ,tail 63 mm , ear 13-4 mm, forearm 45-48 mm (holotype). The Maghrebian Long-fingered Bat is similar in most aspects to Schreibers’s Long-fingered Bat (M. schreibersit), from which it can only be taxonomically confirmed with genetic analyses. Dorsal pelage of the Maghrebian Long-fingered Bat is chestnut-brown to dark grayish brown, and ventral pelage is pale brown. Ventral hairs are bicolored, dark brown on proximal parts and pale brown to buffy on distal parts. Dorsal skin of ears and naked parts of face are pale grayish brown, and ventral skin of ears is almost without pigments, fleshy pale to pinkish. Wing membranes are dark brown to dark grayish brown. Ears are small, and tragus (6-3 mm) is slender and slightly curved forward.	Mediterranean scrublands and dry forests, steppes, and other semi-desert habitats at elevations of 300-1200 m. In Morocco , the Maghrebian Long-fingered Bat seems to prefer southern and more arid environments, and in northern one-half of Morocco , Schreibers’s Long-fingered Bat is found, although with large overlap between species.	There is no specific information available for this species, but based on wing morphology, the Maghrebian Long-fingered Bat probably forages for flying insects by moderately fast hawking in open, uncluttered places including clearings, above trees, and over water.	It is difficult to assign available information on reproduction of Miniopterus in the Maghreb to either the Maghrebian Long-fingered Bat or Schreibers’s L.ongfingered Bat. In any case, the pattern seems to be the typical for a temperate zone species of Miniopterus . An unusually wide range of dates of births has been reported for these bats in Algeria from mid-April to the end ofJune, but again it is not possible to taxonomically assign these records, and it was suggested that this wide range was due to the fact that the two species were present but had differentiated breeding periods.	The Maghrebian Long-fingered Bat is presumably nocturnal. As other temperate species of Miniopterus , it is expected to enter torpor in autumn, and it has been found to store fat in autumn for winter hibernation. It roosts in caves and other underground areas (e.g. irrigation channels). Echolocation calls have downward FM signals, with initial frequencies of 63-6-101-1 kHz, end frequencies of 48-9-51-8 kHz, peak frequencies of 51-54-8 kHz, durations of 3-2-5-6 milliseconds, and intervals of 67-2-239-2 milliseconds.	Colonies of Maghrebian Long-fingered Bats can include up to 400 individuals.	Classified as Near Threatened on The IUCN Red List because actual levels of disturbance are likely to lead to habitat declines of at least 30% in the next 15 years. This species is known from very few sites only, all representing underground spaces threatened by human activities.	Benda & Piraccini (2017) | Benda, Cerveny et al.
