Seminole bat records in Texas concentrate around the Trinity and Brazos river corridors and Caddo National Grasslands, wooded bottomlands where this bat can find the hanging Spanish moss and leaf clusters it prefers for daytime roosting instead of caves or buildings.
Reports peak hard in early summer, with June and July together holding 52 of the state’s 114 records, a pattern that likely tracks maternity-roost season and more warm-weather bat surveys rather than a true population swing.
NatureServe ranks the species S3, Vulnerable, in Texas, distinct from its Secure (G5) global standing, so the state-level picture carries more caution than the worldwide one. The most recent listed sighting was in June 2026.
