Pipistrellus is a genus of bats in the family Vespertilionidae and subfamily Vespertilioninae. The name of the genus is derived from the Italian word pipistrello, meaning "bat".
The common pipistrelle is a small pipistrelle microbat whose very large range extends across most of Europe, North Africa, South Asia, and may extend into Korea. It is one of the most common bat species in the British Isles. In Europe, the northernmost confirmed records are from southern Finland near 60°N.
The soprano pipistrelle is a small species of bat. It is found in Europe and often roosts on buildings.
Nathusius' pipistrelle is a small bat in the genus Pipistrellus. It is very similar to the common pipistrelle and has been overlooked in many areas until recently but it is widely distributed across Europe. It was described by two German naturalists, Alexander Keyserling and Johann Heinrich Blasius, and named by them after Hermann von Nathusius, in gratitude for his support of their research.
The Mount Gargues pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat found in Kenya and believed to be widely distributed across highlands in Ethiopia. It typically lives in subtropical or tropical forests.
The greater Papuan pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat found in Papua New Guinea and Irian Jaya.
Endo's pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat that is endemic to Japan. It is found in temperate forests.
Kuhl's pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat that occurs in large areas of North Africa, Southern Europe and West Asia. It lives in temperate forests, subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, Mediterranean-type shrubby vegetation, temperate grassland, rural gardens, and urban areas. It is a rare and infrequent visitor to Britain, usually only detected by sound-recordings.
The Madeira pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat. It is endemic to Azores, Madeira and the Canary Islands.
The lesser Papuan pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat. It can be found in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea.
The least pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat.
Watt's pipistrelle is a species of vesper bat found only in Papua New Guinea.
The Minahassa ranee mouse is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found only on the island of Sulawesi (Indonesia).
The dusky pipistrelle is a small pipistrelle bat found in Africa.
Pipistrellus raceyi, also known as Racey's pipistrelle, is a bat from Madagascar, in the genus Pipistrellus. Although unidentified species of Pipistrellus had been previously reported from Madagascar since the 1990s, P. raceyi was not formally named until 2006. It is apparently most closely related to the Asian species P. endoi, P. paterculus, and P. abramus, and its ancestors probably reached Madagascar from Asia. P. raceyi has been recorded at four sites, two in the eastern and two in the western lowlands. In the east, it is found in open areas and has been found roosting in a building; in the west it occurs in dry forest. Because of uncertainties about its ecology, it is listed as "Data Deficient" on the IUCN Red List.
