Silver-haired bat migrates through Maryland rather than settling into one summer roost, typically traveling alone or in small groups and roosting under loose bark instead of in caves. NatureServe lists the species SU, Unrankable, in Maryland, reflecting genuine uncertainty about its true status rather than just thin data.
Records rise in April and again in November, tracking the species’ spring and fall migration passages through the state on the way to and from its breeding range farther north.
