  • Abstract
    Myotis capaccinii has only been reported from southern Iran in five localities close to eachother within a radius of approximately 100 Kilometers. Five males and two femalescollected from two new localities for this bat are recorded. Among these bats onepregnant female reared in a flight cage for 9 month provided data for postnatal growthand life history characteristics of the species. Various external and cranial measurementsobtained from these specimens have been compared with specimens taken from southernIran and indicate that M.capaccinii reported from western Iran belong to M.capaccinii bureschi
