Book Description
The purpose of this study is to determine the presence and habitat suitability for the Indiana Bat and Gray Bat for portions of the lower 6.6 miles (10.6 km) of McKee Creek; McGee Creek Drainage and Levee District, Pike Co., Ill. Three channel cutoffs are scheduled to be constructed to straiten McKee Creek before it's destination into the Illinois River, in an effort to provide better drainage in the surrounding heavily agriculturalized area. This study involves mist netting for bats inside each of the proposed cutoffs, between each cutoff and collecting localities immediately upstream and immediately downstream of the study area. A number of data were collected in determining habitat suitability, such as characterization of riparian habitat, description of the stream and data generated from live trapping bats. It is not the intention or duty of this report to comment on the possible effects on the local bat fauna by altering the course of McKee Creek. Bat fauna will be discussed in relation to all species captured, however, major emphasis will be placed on the endangered species, Myotis sodalis, captured during this study.

Determination of Presence and Habitat Suitability for the Indiana Bat (M̲y̲o̲t̲i̲s̲ S̲o̲d̲a̲l̲i̲s̲) and Gray Bat (Myotis Grisescens) for the Pine Ford Study Area, Jefferson, Washington, St. Louis and Franklin Counties, Missouri

Book Description
From 29 June 1981, through 14 August 1981, fifty five trap nights and four monitor nights on the Big River and its tributaries within the Pine Ford Study Area resulted in the capture of 393 bats of ten species. High mist nets that spanned the river from bank to bank and extended from water level to a height of 7.5 meters were used. Ultrasonic monitors were used to document bat activity levels at net sites and to assess the presence of myotine bats in areas that could not be netted. Activity patterns and capture times of different species appeared to be related to the presence of mayfly hatches. The red bat (Lasiurus borealis), was the most common bat captured, comprising fifty-four percent of the total sample. Two federally endangered species, the Indiana bat, (Myotis sodalis) and the gray bat, (Myotis grisescens), also were captured, comprising 2.3 percent and 1.5 percent of the total sample, respectively. Of the nine M. sodalis captured, all were adult males except for two adult females. One lactating female M. sodalis was captured on 1 July and a post-lactating female M. sodalis was captured on 22 July. Of six M. grisescens captured, all were adult males except for one juvenile female captured on 12 August.
