Dorsum is medium to dark brown, with hairs having dark brown bases and shiny paler tips, appearing frosted. Ventral hairs have dark brown bases and silvery whitetips, except on middle of belly where tips are orange-brown, producing striking medial patch. Ears are moderately large, with rounded tips; tragus is ¢.7-6-8- 6 mm long and narrow, with rounded tip and small basal lobe. Face is densely covered with hair, except nostrils and areas around lips and eyes. Membranes are dark brown to blackish and essentially naked. Wing membrane attaches on side of footjust above base of toe. Foot is ¢.50% the tibia length. There is no postcalcarial lobe; extremetip oftail is free. Baculum of the single specimen from Lam Dong Province , Vietnam , was small and proportionally wide ( 0-64 mm long and 0-44 mm maximum width); it was saddle-shaped, with distinct “wings,” and basal one-third was thickest; it had no basal notch, wide and blunt anterior tip, and thick edges of wings. Skull is robust, with broad rostrum, equal in width to braincase. Shallow depression occurs between rostrum and braincase. Sagittal and lambdoid crests are weakly developed. Supraoccipital forms most of posterior part of skull. When viewed from behind, braincase appears flattened, with rectangular outline. Anteorbital bridge is narrow (0-47- 0-67 mm ). When present, P° and P, are very small and displaced from tooth row. C! is short and broad, with well-defined cingulum. P? is absent or minute and completely intruded from tooth row; it is ¢.25% the crown area of P%. P* and P* are in contact or nearly so. C,is short. P, is minute, about one-eighth the crown area of P, and is displaced internally in tooth row or occasionally absent. P, and P, are in contact or nearly so. Condylo-canine lengths are 14-9-15- 7 mm ; maxillary tooth row lengths are 6:6- 6-9 mm . Dental formula is 12/3, C1/1, P 2-3/2-3, M 3/3 (x2) = 34-38. Middle premolars greatly reduced or missing. Chromosomal complement has 2n = 46 and FN = 54 (male from Thailand ), differing from common diploid number of 2n = 44 for Myotis by having one additional small acrocentric pair that is suspected to be entirely heterochromatic.	Montane forests and valleys, including wet evergreen and hill forests (Southeast Asia), second growth forest along a riverbank and wet pristine mixed forest (broadleaf and coniferous) with many seasonal and permanent streams ( Vietnam ) at elevations of 600-1250 m .	No information.	No information.	The Hairy-faced Myotis is nocturnal and seems to be an aerial hawker, with powerful flight similar to that of medium-sized serotines. In Dak Lak Province , Vietnam ,it was captured over a forest trail at ¢. 1100 m . In Cambodia , it had steeply FM calls, without any CF component; calls (durations 2:1-2-8 milliseconds) started at c.80 kHz and swept down to 30 kHz.	No information.	Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Hairyfaced Myotis is widespread, presumably has a large population, and is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for a more threatened category.	Amador et al.

Montane forests and valleys, including wet evergreen and hill forests (Southeast Asia), second growth forest along a riverbank and wet pristine mixed forest (broadleaf and coniferous) with many seasonal and permanent streams ( Vietnam ) at elevations of 600-1250 m . Food and Feeding. No information. Breeding. No information. Activity patterns. The Hairy-faced Myotis is nocturnal and seems to be an aerial hawker, with powerful flight similar to that of medium-sized serotines. In Dak Lak Province , Vietnam ,it was captured over a forest trail at ¢. 1100 m . In Cambodia , it had steeply FM calls, without any CF component; calls (durations 2:1-2-8 milliseconds) started at c.80 kHz and swept down to 30 kHz. Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information. Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Hairyfaced Myotis is widespread, presumably has a large population, and is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for a more threatened category. Bibliography. Amador et al.

However, Topál (1970b) compared the original series and fresh specimens collected from the type locality and found that the type was an abnormal specimen of Myotis Kaup, 1829 lacking second upper and lower premolars. Following Topál (1970), Corbet and Hill (1992), Koopman (1993) and Bates and Harrison (1997) treated it under Myotis Kaup, 1829. Additionally, Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1951) considered the taxon Myotis primula Thomas, 1920 allied to Myotis emarginatus (Geoffroy 1806) that is now synonymized with the present taxon (Görföl et al. 2013).	20000000	Myotis annectans	Least Concern		2020	2018-09-01 00:00:00 UTC	3.1	English	Listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution, presumed large population, and because it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a more threatened category.	In South Asia, little is known about the habitat or ecology of this species except that this species is found in montane forests and valleys (Molur et al. 2002). In Southeast Asia it has been recorded from wet evergreen forest. In Viet Nam, one specimen has been taken in second growth along a river valley (Smith and Xie 2008). In Chu Yang Sin (Viet Nam) it was captured at 1,100 m a.s.l. in a wet pristine mixed forest. It may be an aerial hawker bat (Kruskop 2013). It also occurred at lower elevation (260 m a.s.l.) in Cambodia (Phauk et al. 2013).	The threats to this species remain unknown (Molur et al. 2002).	In South Asia the abundance, population size and trends for this species are not known (Molur et al . 2002). In Southeast Asia it is widespread but uncommon to moderately common.	Unknown	This species ranges from northeastern South Asia, into southern China, and mainland Southeast Asia. In South Asia, this species is presently known from India (Nagaland and West Bengal) (Das 2003, Molur et al. 2002), it has been recorded from around 1,100 m asl. In China it is known only from a single record from Yunnan (Wang 2002, Smith and Xie 2008). In Southeast Asia, it ranges from northern Thailand (Corbet and Hill 1992), probably through much of Lao PDR (Francis et al. 1999, Thomas et al. 2013) and in Cambodia (Hendrichsen et al. 2001, Phauk et al. 2013). It also occurs in Viet Nam (Kruskop 2013, Görföl and Tu pers. comm.).		Terrestrial	In South Asia, there are no conservation measures in place, and this species is not recorded from any protected areas. Surveys, ecological and populations studies are recommended (Molur et al. 2002). The species has been recorded from protected areas in Cambodia and Lao PDR (C. Francis pers. comm.) as well as from Vietnam (Görföl and Tu pers. comm.).	Indomalayan		FALSE	FALSE	Global	Simmons, N. B., & Cirranello, A. L. (2023). Batnames.org Species List Version 1.4 (1.4).
