Barbastella barbastellus, Myotis capaccinii, M. mystacinus, Plecotus auritus, P. austriacus, kolombatovici, macrobullaris, and Rhinolophus euryale primarily moth feeders. Eptesicus bottae, E. serotinus, myotis, Taphozous nudiventris fed heavily on beetles. aurascens and, brandtii Diptera. blythii Tadarida teniotis tentatively classified as cricket feeders at least in Hypsugo savii, Miniopterus schreibersii, emarginatus, nattereri, Pipistrellus kuhlii, pipistrellus, pygmaeus, ferrumequinum, R. hipposideros, mehelyi preyed a variety insects may be treated generalists. In 17 species, the foods found paralleled those previously reported literature, but nine (some with notably small samples) they did not. These are apparently first food aurascens.
