The study of bats was conducted in Pulau Bidong and Pulau Perhentian Besar
from 31st May to 7th July and 13th to 20th August 2015. This study aimed to document the
first record of bats and to construct a checklist in for these two off-coast islands in South
China Sea. Standard mist nets and harp traps were used throughout the study. A total of
116 individuals comprised of ten species of bats were captured. The most abundant species
of chiropterans for both islands was Cynopterus brachyotis with 74 individuals whereas
the least was Eonycteris spelaea with only one individual. Two species; Rhinolophus
lepidus and Hipposideros cineraceus were new records for Pulau Perhentian Besar. A longterm
study covering other areas and habitat types within Pulau Perhentian Besar and the
surrounding islands will definitely increase the bats records in the future.
