title: Interannual Survival ofMyotis lucifugus(Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) near the Epicenter of White-Nose Syndrome.
abstract: Reduced populations ofMyotis lucifugus(Little Brown Myotis) devastated by white-nose syndrome (WNS) persist in eastern North America. Between 2009 and 2013, we recaptured 113 marked individuals that survived between 1 and 6 winters in New England since the arrival of WNS. We also observed signs of reproductive success in 57 recaptured bats.
