Chiroptera, Pipistrellus kuhlii, roost, emergence, foraging habitats, SloveniaAbstract
A small colony of about 20 Kuhl’s pipistrelles occupied fissures behind the weatherboarding of an apartment house from April to November, most numerous being in May. Mean first emergence of Kuhl's pipistrelle was 18,3 minutes after the sunset. The bats were later seen foraging around street lamps.
