The eastern long-fingered bat, or big-footed myotis (Myotis macrodactylus) is a species of vesper bat. An adult Big-Footed Myotis has a body length of 4.1-4.8 cm, a tail of 3.1-4.9 cm, and a wing length of 3.7-4.2 cm. It nests in groups, and favors caves, tunnels and abandoned mines. It can be found in Korea, Japan, and eastern Siberia, including Sakhalin.
Famous quotes containing the word eastern:
“From this elevation, just on the skirts of the clouds, we could overlook the country, west and south, for a hundred miles. There it was, the State of Maine, which we had seen on the map, but not much like that,—immeasurable forest for the sun to shine on, the eastern stuff we hear of in Massachusetts. No clearing, no house. It did not look as if a solitary traveler had cut so much as a walking-stick there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
