• Abstract:
  The Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis) is a small, tree roosting species found throughout the eastern United States that is federally listed as endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Although their major hibernacula are protected, information on summer foraging and roosting habitat of the Indiana bat is limited, particularly in Ohio. ODOT’s roadway program is associated with several activities that may result in impacts to the bat. As a result, in accordance with the Endangered Species Act of 1973, ODOT must plan and implement its program in a manner that avoids or minimizes impacts to the Indiana bat. A more detailed understanding of summer roosting and foraging habitat for Indiana bats is needed for effective conservation and mitigation plans.
