The Research/Resources Management Series of the Natural Science and
Research Division, National Park Service, Southeast Regional Office, was
established as a medium for distributing scientific information to park
Superintendents, resource management specialists, and other National
Park Service personnel in the parks of the Southeast Region. The papers
in the Series also contain information potentially useful to other Park
Service areas outside the Southeast Region and may benefit independent
researchers working within units of the National Park System. The
Series provides for the retention of research information in the
biological, physical, and social sciences and makes possible more
complete in-house evaluation of non-refereed research, technical, and
consultant reports.
The Research/Resources Management Series is not intended as a
substitute for refereed scientific or technical journals. However, when
the occasion warrants, a copyrighted journal paper authored by a
National Park Service scientist may be reprinted as a Series report in
order to meet park informational and disseminative needs. In such cases
permission to reprint the copyrighted article is sought. The Series
includes :
1 . Research reports which directly address resource management
problems in the parks.
2. Papers which are primarily literature reviews and/or
bibliographies of existing information relative to park
resource management problems.
3. Presentations of basic resource inventory data.
4« Reports of contracted scientific research studies funded or
supported by the National Park Service.
5. Other reports and papers considered compatible to the Series,
including approved reprints of copyrighted journal papers and
results of applicable university or independent research.
The Series is flexible in format and the degree of editing depends
on content.
Southeast Regional Research/Resources Management Reports are
produced by the Natural Science and Research Division, Southeast

ABSTRACT
Of the 40 species of bats known to occur within the United States,
15 occur within Tennessee and/or North Carolina and 10 species occur within
the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This bibliography was an attempt
to document much of the literature concerning bat research and species
occurrence in the park and surrounding southeastern states. The bibliography
cites approximately 235 books, theses, journal articles, and pieces of
correspondence; these cover 117 years, from 1864 to 1981, and are primarily
ecological in nature. The majority of the literature was obtained from major
scientific journals and from the files and library facilities of the author,
the University of Tennessee, and the Tennessee Valley Authority. In addition
to the bibliography, two indexes were constructed to allow the reader a quick
and efficient means of locating references for particular bat species and/or
major subject areas.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I would like to thank the Great Smoky Mountains Natural History
Association for its support of the work reported here. The present
report is one of a series of bibliographies being developed for the biota,
soils, geology, and environment of Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
The need for such a series was first expressed by a committee made up of
representatives from the Interpretation and Resources Management Divsions
of Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Uplands Field Research
Laboratory. Peter White of Uplands Laboratory supervised the project.

INTRODUCTION
Approximately 40 species of bats are known to occur in the United
States (Barbour and Davis 1969, Mohr 197 6). Of these, 15 (38 percent)
occur in Tennessee and/or North Carolina and 10 (25 percent) occur in Great
Smoky Mountains National Park (GRSM) (Table 1). Despite this fact, very
little research has been conducted on bats in the southeastern United States.
Although the primary objective of this bibliography was to document the
literature concerning bat research in GRSM and the surrounding southeastern
states, it became necessary to broaden the scope of the project. Many
species of bats, like birds, can undergo seasonal migrations. Banded
individuals of species such as the Little Brown bat (Myotis lucifugus) and
the Indiana bat (M. sodalis) have been recaptured 290 to 300 miles away from
their original capture points (Barbour and Davis 1969). Therefore, when
dealing with the ecology of such animals, it became necessary to consider
the literature of each species from a broad geographic range. Finally, some
books (Table 2) were included in the bibliography because they were considered
to be important to the overall topic of bat ecology.
Due to the plethora of literature concerning most temperate bat species,
it would be incorrect to assume that this bibliography is complete for any of
those species. In order to maintain some constraints on the size of the
bibliography, most of the literature that has been included is ecological in
nature. Literature concerning laboratory-oriented research in areas such as
cytology and genetics, for example, was sharply curtailed although not
completely eliminated. Furthermore, a sufficient number of general and review
papers have been incorporated so that one may obtain additional references
by using these general references.

Our basic approach in constructing the bibliography and the two indexes
was historical in nature. Many of the early, classic papers, which are still
relevant today, are included, along with the most recent and more
sophisticated research. Thus, the bibliography cites approximately 235 books,
theses, journal articles, and pieces of correspondence; these cover 117 years,
from 1864 to 1981.
METHODS
Much of the literature in this bibliography came from the files of the
author. In addition, the library facilities of the University of Tennessee,
Knoxville, and the Tennessee Valley Authority were also used. Records of
bat species found within GRSM were obtained from the mammal collection at the
University of Tennessee Zoology Department, from Linzey and Linzey (1971), and
from the author's personal files.
The major journals that were reviewed for bat literature included
Wildlife Review, Journal of Wildlife Management, Journal of Mammalogy, Ecology,
and Bat Research News. Other journals that occasionally contained relevant
articles included Journal of Wildlife Diseases, American Naturalist, American
Journal of Anatomy, Journal of Experimental Biology, Journal of Behavioral
and Ecological Sociobiology, and Journal of Morphology.
The bibliography was arranged alphabetically by author. This was the
easiest and quickest method and is standard practice for most major journals.
In addition to the bibliography, two indexes were constructed to give the
reader a quick and efficient means of locating references for particular bat
species and /or major subject areas. The references within each index are also
arranged alphabetically by author for each bat species end subject area. Thus,
the most efficient use of this bibliography would be to go directly to the
indexes for the particular bat species and subject area that is being
investigated. The references which are found in both places would be the
most worthwhile to initially locate in the bibliography.
TAXONOMIC CHANGES
There are several taxonomic changes that may be confusing within the
bibliography. The Southern Big-eared bat (Plecotus raf inesquii) was previously
known as Corynorhinus raf inesquii, the Least bat (Myotis leibii) was once
Myotis subulatus, and the Mexican Free-tailed bat (Tadarida brasiliensis)
was once Tadarida mexicana.
