Abstract

<p>Occurrence of <em>Scotophilus kuhlii</em> was speculated throughout the southern plain (Tarai) of Nepal. However, there was no record of voucher specimen of the species from Nepal. We collected a specimen from the Tikulia tole, Pakali Village Development Committee, Sunsari District of southeastern Nepal and deposited at Central Department of Zoology (CDZ) Museum, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu. The specimen was identified as <em>S. kuhlii </em>based on measurement of external body, cranial, dental parts and detail description of the species. This is the first specific locality record of the species from Nepal that confirms its presence in the country.</p><div> </div>
