Arizona myotis is a ponderosa- and mixed-conifer bat of the state’s higher mountain ranges, recorded here only a handful of times, in the bottom fifth of Arizona’s mammal record. Like most bats, it is caught far more often in acoustic surveys and mist nets than in a camera lens.
The scattered single-digit counts from May through September describe when biologists happened to be out with detectors, not a true seasonal pulse; a species this rarely logged doesn’t yet have enough data to support a confident seasonal read.
