The big brown bat is a species of vesper bat distributed widely throughout North America, the Caribbean, and the northern portion of South America. It was first described as a species in 1796. Compared to other microbats, the big brown bat is relatively large, weighing 15–26 g (0.53–0.92 oz) and possessing a wingspan of 32.5–35 cm (12.8–13.8 in).
Kobayashi's bat is a species of bat. An adult Kobayashi's bat has a body length of 6.0–6.3 centimetres (2.4–2.5 in), a tail length of 4.6–4.8 centimetres (1.8–1.9 in), and a wing length of 4.5–4.7 centimetres (1.8–1.9 in). The species is found only on the Korean Peninsula; it has been suggested that it may be a local form of Eptesicus bottae, Botta's serotine.

A tiny flying mammal, whose body is around twelve millimetres (½ inch) long, that occupies small cavities in trees and buildings while roosting. The nocturnal activity is foraging for insects, typically moths.
The yellow-lipped cave bat is a vespertilionid bat which only occurs in the Kimberley region of northwest Australia.

The Isalo serotine is a vespertilionid bat of Madagascar in the genus Laephotis. It is known only from the vicinity of the Isalo National Park in the southwestern part of the island, where it has been caught in riverine habitats. After the first specimen was caught in 1967, it was described as a subspecies of Eptesicus somalicus in 1995. After four more specimens were collected in 2002 and 2003, it was recognized as a separate species. Because of its small distribution and the threat of habitat destruction, it is considered "vulnerable" in the IUCN Red List.
The Mistratoan yellow-shouldered bat, is a species of leaf-nosed bat indigenous to the Cordillera Occidental, in the Mistrato municipality in Risaralda, Colombia.
