Greater Horseshoe Bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum) breeding productivity surveillance in Pembrokeshire

The greater horseshoe bat Rhinolophus ferrumequinum, nursery roosts at Stackpole and Slebech, Pembrokeshire, are principal summer roosts of the West Wales population of the species which ranges through Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Gower, West Glamorgan. Monitoring the population is difficult, as for much of the year only a small percentage are accessible through winter surveys of hibernacula. Monitoring the status of the population is therefore only practical at the nursery roosts. This dataset consists of Greater Horseshoe Bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum) surveillance results. The surveillance of the breeding productivity of Greater Horseshoe Bat i.e. numbers of young born annually occurs between June and August. The purpose of this data capture was to: - Provide information and updates to the local Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) - Assess feature conditions of greater horseshoe bats within Pembrokeshire Bat Sites Special Area of Conservation (SAC), and 3 component Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). - Contribute to the management database of the breeding population records for Greater Horseshoe Bats species recovers programme and the UK BAP species programmes.
