Lasionycteris noctivagans (Le Conte, 1831)

Silver-haired Bat

The distribution of L. noctivagans , although occurring throughout most of the United States and southern Canada, is not well known in the southern portion of its range ( Bee et al. 1981; Caire et al. 1989; Davis and Schmidly 1994). Caire et al. (1989) reported only four specimens from four counties. Since then, records were reported for Cimarron County ( Dalquest et al. 1990), McCurtain County (Sheffield and Chapman 1992), and Beaver and Oklahoma counties ( Braun and Revelez 2005). New records are reported for Caddo and Le Flore counties.
