208 T. Görfól, I. Dombi & G. Csorba These two species were mist-netted in the place of the excavation in September 2009 (unpublished data). The Long-fingered Myotis is basically a Mediterranean species, which occurs almost exclusively in karst areas. The closest data of the species to Hungary was in a cave near Zagreb (DULIC 1963), but the species became extinct in this area, so the nearest colony is in the Matesica cave near Slunj, Croatia (HAMIDOVIC et al. 2006). There are no accepted recent records of this species in Hungary (BIHARI 2007), and only vagrant specimens might occur along the Danube or the Drava rivers. The Northern bat's main distribution area is in North Europe, but it occurs also south of Hungary in the Romanian Carpathians, the Rila Mountains in Bulgaria and in Croatia ( HANÁK & HORÁCEK 1986, NAGY et al. 2005, PAVLINIC & TVRTKOVIC 2003). According to our present knowledge the species has only one confirmed recent sighting supported by photographic evidence (PAULOVICS 1998). As the result of the revision of the skull and body remains of the proposed Northern Bat from Szekszárd the specimen proved to be a Savi's Pipistrelle ( Hypsugo savii). This species became common in the area during the past few years (GÖRFÖL et al. 2007), but the specimen found in 2000 is one of the first findings in the city. * Acknowledgements - We are very grateful to MIKLÓS ZÖRÉNYI (Paks) and MIHÁLY GASPARIK (HNHM) for making the specimens available for the study.
