Abstract

Abstract Additional record for Asellia patrizii from As Saqid Island, Saudi Arabia, is reported. Illustrations for alive specimens are given for the first time. Current distribution for this species across its known range of distribution was provided. Echolocation data for A. patrizii is given for the first time, where it ranged from 133-139 KHz for maximum energy (average 135.22 ± 2.41). Calls were compared with two populations of Asellia tridens in Saudi Arabia and other regions in the Middle East.
