Annamit myotis

Learn more about this article

The Annamit myotis (Myotis annamiticus) is a species of mouse-eared bat in the family Vespertilionidae, described in 2001, and indigenous to the Minh Hoa district on the northern coast of Vietnam.[2] Following its description, investigators succeeded in locating M. annamiticus only in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park, and the data regarding the distribution, population, and range of the species is otherwise inadequate to determine its conservation requirements.[3]
