Southeastern Turkey is an important geographical region where the bat species spreading especially in Arabian Peninsula, North Africa and the Middle East enter in Turkey and have an intense population. The aim of this study was to identify the bat species in this region, which has glacial mountains, arid steppes, river valleys and vast plains. As a result of the field studies conducted between 2004 and 2017, totally 15 species belonging to Emballonuridae, Rhinolophidae, Vespertilionidae and Molossidae families of Microchiroptera suborder were identified in the study area. The habitat characteristics of the species and their locality records were presented. In this study, Myotis nattererii, M. aurescens, and Rhinolophus mehelyi were firstly recorded in the study area. Also, two new locations were determined for Taphozous nudiventris known from one location in Turkey up to the present.

Güneydoğu Türkiye özellikle Arap yarım adası, kuzey Afrika ve Ortadoğu bölgesinde yayılış gösteren yarasa türlerinin Türkiye’ye giriş yaptığı ve yoğun olarak bulunduğu önemli bir coğrafik bölgedir. Buzul dağlardan, kurak steplere, ırmak vadilerinden geniş düzlüklere sahip bu bölgedeki yarasa türlerini tespit etmek bu çalışmanın amacı oluşturmaktadır. 2004-2017 yılları arasında yapılan arazi çalışmaları sonucunda araştırma bölgesinden Microchiroptera alt takımının Emballonuridae, Rhinolophidae, Vespertilionidae ve Molossidae familyalarına mensup toplam 15 tür tespit edilmiştir. Türlere ait habitat özellikleri ve lokalite kayıtları verilmiştir. Bu çalışma ile Myotis nattererii, M. aurescens ve Rhinolophus mehelyi’nin araştırma bölgesinden ilk kez kaydı verilmiştir. Bununla birlikte bugüne kadar ülkemizden tek bir lokaliteden bilinen Taphozous nudiventris için iki yeni lokalite daha tespit edilmiştir.
