“…The Jefferson County individual was caught over a spring-fed tributary of Big Sandy Creek with a sand and gravel bottom in an Eastern Riparian Forest community with a canopy of American elm, green ash, silver maple (Acer saccharinum), plains cottonwood, black walnut, hackberry, eastern red cedar, and honey locust (Rolfsmeier and Steinauer 2010). Geluso et al (2019) found variability in reproductive timing for this species across Nebraska. Our female from Pawnee County was lactating in late June, which most closely matches females in east-central Nebraska.…”

“…Remarks.-The northern long-eared myotis has been the subject of intensive study in Nebraska in recent years because the species is vulnerable to white-nose syndrome and listed as a federally threatened species (Geluso et al 2015, Lemen et al 2016a, Stein and White 2016, White et al 2017a, 2017b, Brack et al 2019. Johnson and Geluso (2017) mapped the species occurring in 14 counties in the state, with the distribution in a rough crescent shape with records along the Niobrara River in the north as far west as Sheridan County, Missouri River in the east, and Republican River in the south to as far west as Harlan County (Johnson and Geluso 2017).…”

Information on the distribution and current status of 25 species or subspecies of mammals occurring in Nebraska are presented. The species covered include one shrew, an armadillo, eight bats, 10 rodents (including two subspecies of one species), three carnivores, and one artiodactyl. Distributional information reported includes the first state record for one species (Sorex nanus) and new county records for 18 species. In Nebraska, we know that mammals are shifting their geographic ranges with some extending populations into the state, whereas others are expanding their geographic ranges within the state. The current status of six additional mammalian taxa in Nebraska is documented, providing knowledge important to the conservation of these species during this time of shifting environmental conditions. The concern is that some mammals have suffered population declines since the 1940s and may have a contracting geographic range as well in the state. These species would be endangered and could be lost to the mammalian fauna of the state. Extensive data on reproduction in these mammals are presented and the taxonomy of species is updated from the 1964 Mammals of Nebraska by Jones.
