Abstract
Abstract During a survey of the biota of part of Kisatchie National Forest, Louisiana, 3 specimens of Myotis septentrionalis were collected and are the first records of the species from Louisiana. Two males and 1 female were collected on 3 nights. The female is the earliest record (10 May) of lactation for M. septentrionalis. Caves known in Louisiana are 55 to 87 km from the Winn Parish collection site, but use of these caves by M. septentrionalis has not been documented. Based on the discovery of M. septentrionalis in Louisiana, it is necessary to reevaluate the southern boundary of the distribution of this species.
