- Abstract
Migration activity of bats of Pipistrellus nathusii across the European seas have been reported mainly for the North and Baltic Sea basins. Recently, we have recorded the species for first time within the Bulgarian Black Sea exclusive economic zone (100 km off the country's coast). In addition, six species, i.e. Myotis daubentonii, Nyctalus leisleri, N. lasiopterus, Pipistrellus pipistrellus, P. nathusii and Eptesicus serotinus, were identified over St. Anastasia Island in the Burgas Bay. These results suggest the necessity for organisation of a long-term acoustic monitoring for determination of bat migration movements along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast and in open sea areas using ships and platforms.
