Separating Pipistrelles In The Hand:

Attached is a PDF file which is a "Guide to the Identification of Pipistrelle Bats" - by Henry Schofield (2002) - this uses the wing venation of the bats to distinguish between 45Kh & 55Kh (Pipistrelle and Soprano Pipistrelle) pips, in the hand.

NB: Please note that there are legal constraints pertaining to the handling of bats and that only licensed handlers should be handling bats at all !!
