Genus Myotis Kaup, 1829

Eight species of the Genus Myotis represent the Subfamily Myotinae in Korea, including the recently reported cryptic species M. davidii . Although Subgenera Myotis, Leuconoe , and Selysius are identified, no consensus exists on the subgenera ( Simmons 2005). For the Genus Myotis , we followed the English common name of ‘Myotis’ from Wilson and Reeder (2005). The common name ‘Whiskered Bat’ has also been common usage for this genus.
