Abstract

The type specimen of Myotis abei YOSHIKURA, 1944 was examined and compared with species of subgenera Leuconoe and Selysius from Japan and adjacent territories. The analysis of external characters and measurements indicated that M. abei should be recognised as a junior synonym of Myotis daubentoni (KUHL, 1817).
