The Australasian bent-wing bat (Miniopterus orianae ) is a species of vesper bat in the family Miniopteridae . It is found in Australia and in Southeast Asia .
Taxonomy [ edit ]
The Australasian bent-wing bat was described as a new species in 1922 by British zoologist Oldfield Thomas .
The holotype had been collected on 9 July 1922 by Oriana F. Wilson , widow of Antarctic explorer Edward Adrian Wilson .
Thomas named the species Miniopterus orianae .[2] This species was once considered a subspecies of common bent-wing bat . It is now accepted that the Australasian bent-winged bat and the Eastern bent-winged bat are two distinct species.[1]
The Australasian bent-wing bat has three subspecies: M. orianae bassanii (the southern bent-wing bat ), M. o. orianae (the northern bent-wing bat), and M. o. oceanensis (the eastern bent-wing bat).[3] [1]
Ecology [ edit ]
It is known to harbor the blood parasite Polychromophilus melanipherus , though one study found that bats with the blood parasite did not appear to suffer deleterious effects such as anemia or low body weight.[4]
Range and habitat [ edit ]
M. orianae bassanii only occurs in southwestern Victoria and southeastern South Australia .
M. orianae oceanensis occurs widely along the east coast of Australia.[4]
M. orianae orianae was first documented in Casurina Bay, which is 17 mi (27 km ) from Darwin, Northern Territory .[1]
Conservation [ edit ]
One of the subspecies (M. orianae bassanii ) has been evaluated as critically endangered in Australia under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 since 2007.[5]
M. orianae oceanensis is listed as vulnerable in Victoria, as it is only known from one maternity cave .[4]
