Abstract:
We surveyed bats near the Hornbill Golf and Jungle Club Resort in the highland area of Penrissen from 27 to 29 January 2005. We caught 38 individuals of eight species in ten mist-nets and one harp-trap during two trapping nights. These represent new distributional records for Mount Penrissen (Payne et aL, 1998).
