Abstract
New records of ectoparasites from the eastern water bat Myotis petax Hollister, 1912, belonging to the Siberian-Russian Far Eastern complex and earlier regarded as the subspecies of the Daubenton’s bat Myotis daubentonii s. lato, are given. Previous records of ectoparasites of the eastern water bat (old interpretation of the species) are revised. Fourteen species of bloodsucking arthropods feed on M. petax; these species include 4, 3, and 7 species of gamasid mites, fleas, and bat flies, respectively.
