Alpine Long-eared Bat

The Alpine Long-eared Bat (Plecotus macrobullaris) is a species in the genus Plecotus. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

This chemoheterotroph decomposes dissolved organic matter in lacustrine environments and may degrade aromatic compounds.
