[生態保育] 二種罕見蝙蝠現身雪見地區

雪霸國家公園雪見地區於2008年首次在園區內發現相當罕見的無尾葉鼻蝠彩蝠2種蝙蝠,其中無尾葉鼻蝠還列在珍貴稀有保育類動物,雪霸園區內的蝙蝠已達22種,佔全台灣蝙蝠種類76%,雪霸國家公園西北園區現已成台灣蝙蝠物種最多樣的生態寶庫。

用特殊網具捕獲這兩種蝙蝠的雪管處技士陳家鴻說,無尾葉鼻蝠鼻部為葉片狀,耳朵像紙捲成圓桶狀,主要棲息在洞穴,台灣已知分布地點只有宜蘭、南投與花蓮等少數棲地,海拔1870公尺的雪見是目前分布海拔的最高紀錄。彩蝠1999年在台灣首次發現,地點在雪霸觀霧地區周邊的新竹白蘭部落。彩蝠的主要特徵是耳朵像壓扁後撐開的漏斗,住在中空的竹節中。國外的彩蝠在毛色上有許多變化,台灣的彩蝠是灰黑色。

[Wildlife Conservation] Two Rare Species of Bat Found in Syuejian Area

Last year (2008), two rare species of bat, Formosan tailless leaf-nosed bat (Coelops frithi formosanus) and Formosan wolly bat (Kerivoula sp.), were found for the first time in Shei-Pa National Park; the former is even a listed rare and valuable species. Twenty-two species of bat (76% of all the species of bat in Taiwan) have been observed in Shei-Pa. The West-Northern area of Shei-Pa becomes the place with the most diverse species of bat in Taiwan.

Having captured these two kinds of bat with special designed equipment, the Shei-Pa technical specialist Chia-hung Chen (陳家鴻) said, the Formosan tailless leaf-nosed bat has leaf-shaped nose and paper-cone-liked ears and inhabits usually in caves. Only at a few spots in Yilan, Nantou and Hualian, is it observed. Syuejian, elevation 1879 meters, is its highest inhabitance ever found. Formosan wolly bat was first found in 1999 at Bailan Tribe near Guanwu area of Shei-Pa (Hsinchu). Its ears look like flattened funnel and it usually inhabits in hollow bamboos. Foreign wolly bats usually have various colors on their fur, while Formosan wolly are always dark gray.
