Genus Hypsugo Kolenati, 1856

Hypsugo was once regarded as a Subgenus of Pipistrellus ( Simmons 2005) , although Horáček and Hanák (1986) viewed Hypsugo as a distinct genus (followed by Juste & Paunovic 2016). Genetic and karyological analyses did not support a close relationship between Pipistrellus and Hypsugo ( Kruskop 2012) . One species, H. alaschanicus occurs in Korea. With Vespertilio , Hypsugo represents the Tribe Vespertilionini in the Subfamily Vespertilionae .
