Popis The ecology and behaviour of temperate zone microchiropteran bats are fundamentally affected by seasonal changes in day length and associated climatic variables, which become more pronounced at increasing latitudes. These changes require fl exible behavioural adjustments of their circadian as well as circannual activity patterns. A characteristic feature of the annual cycle of insectivorous temperate zone bats is hibernation. Our research conducted during last 15 years in several model caves in the central part of Moravian karst was aimed to various aspects of bat hibernation including the variation of fl ight activity of bats at the entrance of cave (seasonal and overnight) and different factors which infl uence it, the selection of places with specifi c parameters within a hibernaculum and the level of bat movement activity during hibernation period, the thermopreferendum of various bat species etc.
