分類群涵蓋範圍

Taxonomic coverage of the dataset consists of the Mammals from the order Chiroptera. All except one recorded bat belong to the family Vespertilionidae, one individual belongs to the family Molossidae (see Prylutska et al. 2020). In total, 12 species and 1 subspecies were recorded by direct records, 11 species from Vespertilionidae belonging to 7 genera. By correspondence records, 13 species from the family Vespertilionidae were recorded belonging to 8 genera. For most of the bat species presented in the database, there were no nomenclatural changes or developments for the last 10 years, and their taxonomic status is definite (Dietz and Kiefer 2014). The exception is Pipistrellus kuhlii (Kuhl, 1817), presented in Europe by two taxons well-distinguishable visually - Pipistrellus kuhlii kuhlii (Kuhl, 1817) and Pipistrellus kuhlii lepidus (Blyth, 1845) (Andriollo et al. 2015, Sachanowicz et al. 2017). However, there was not a clear view of the systematic status of these two taxons, do they just morphs or true subspecies (Sachanowicz et al. 2017). For the whole of the Ukrainian territory only P. k. lepidus was distinguished till now (Sachanowicz et al. 2017, Hukov et al. 2020). However, there was noted species range expansion for P. k. kuhlii from west to east, and it was hypothesized that it would appear in most western regions of Ukraine soon (Sachanowicz et al. 2017). All the bats identified previously (by UBRC specialists) as P. kuhlii were later reevaluated as P. k. lepidus. Yet we cannot absolutely confirm whether P. kuhlii from the western part of Ukraine ( identified by photos), actually was P. k. lepidus and not a P. k. kuhlii. For this reason, we categorized correspondence records to a higher-level species taxon P. kuhlii, but direct records were marked as P. k. lepidus.

The records of bats for this dataset were done by ordinary people or by specialists of UBRS during bat rescue operations in human settlements. Most of the records represent accidental findings of bats (on the ground or inside the flats/offices). Another smaller part of the records describes the bat hibernation colonies found in buildings during the renovation or window replacement works (Hukov et al. 2020, Kravchenko et al. 2017). The information about bat findings was transferred by citizens to the UBRC through the phone helpline and social media messengers. The UBRC facilities are based in Kharkiv city (NE Ukraine), and all found bats were transported to the UBRC’s office for detailed examination and recording. When a bat was not delivered to the UBRC’s office, its species and sex (if possible) were determined from a picture taken for record (see Prylutska and Vlaschenko 2013). For the current dataset we summarized two types of records: (i) direct (or factual) records consisting of bats that were delivered to the UBRC’s office and examined by specialists (“occurrences” in basiOfRecord term in the dataset); (ii) correspondence records, bats that were identified by picture(s) (“human observations” in basiOfRecord term). During the warm period of the year bats were released back to the wild. In the cold period of the year bats were staying at the UBRC facilities till spring (under suitable for hibernation conditions). Individuals with signs of injuries were examined by a veterinarian and received proper treatment. Bats that were not capable of flying after the treatment, were left at the UBRC for life-long care and rehabilitation. Additionally, protocols for bat care, ringing and releasing to nature have been already published (Domanska et al. 2017, Vlaschenko et al. 2020). Bat species were identified by UBRC workers and specialists using illustrated keys (Dietz and Helversen 2004, Dietz and Kiefer 2014). The methods for identification of bat age, sex and measurements has been already published in detail by members of the UBRC (Hukov et al. 2020, Kravchenko et al. 2017, Prylutska et al. 2021). Specifically, we use three age categories: for the description of bat age (i) juvenile - recently born not flying individuals, (ii) this-year-born individuals (subadult) - usually from the age of 1 till 10-11 months and (iii) adult individuals (Kravchenko et al. 2017). Females of bats with protuberant nipples (1 mm or more in diameter) and milk-white, abraded canine teeth were ranked as adults. Females with flat and pink nipples and pinkish, sharp canine teeth were ranked as first-year individuals (Kravchenko et al. 2017, Prylutska et al. 2021). Males with milky-white and worn canine teeth, big testes (from 7 × 4 mm or more), and distended, filled epididymis were ranked as adults. Males with pinkish and sharp canine teeth, small testes, and small, undescended epididymis were ranked as first year individuals (Kravchenko et al. 2017, Prylutska et al. 2021). Location of each found bat were recorded as exact address (oblast, city, address) and later was geocoded manually, using Google Maps service. For each record coordinate uncertainty is mentioned (in meters). Records for which only settlements were known, georeferenced as geometric centroid of the polygon of the settlement, with coordinate precision calculated as radius of the polygon. We identified it as the radius for each settlement using the official administrative boundary shapefile (https://data.humdata.org/dataset/cod-ab-ukr?), calculation of the square for each settlement and centroids in the QGIS software (QGIS Development Team, 2009.

方法步驟描述:

1. For bats transferred to the UBRC (Occurrence): Identification of bat species, sex and age, measuring body mass and forearm length, ringing the bats with bat rings. Completing google sheets with all bat details and measurements, date and place of the record.
2. For bats found in other cities (Human observation): Identification of bat species by photos or videos. Completing google sheets with all details about bat (species, sex), date and place of the record.
3. Aggregating occurrence records and human observation records.
4. Manual georeferencing of records based on descriptions of the localities using Google Maps;
5. Data post-processing using Darwin Core terms (Wieczorek et al. 2012);
6. Data cleaning using OpenRefine (OpenRefine 2022).
