Abstract
A male greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferruequinum) was netted at the entrance to the abandoned Mauritius mine (50°23’32”N, 12°50’01”E; 1018 m a. s. l.) in the Krušné Hory Mts (Ore Mountains) on 2 September 2023. This is the first record of this species in north-western Bohemia and first record outside the hibernation period for the whole Bohemia. The site is situated beyond the northern limits of the continuous distribution range of the species. Mist netting campaigns during the swarming period have been taking place at the site regularly since 2005 (except 2006 and 2022) and Rhinolophus ferruequinum was never recorded there before.
