Ecological studies of soprano pipistrelle, Kuhl's pipistrelle, common serotine and grey long-eared bat within the framework of the Species Management Plan

This tender concerns ecological surveys focused on specific bat species: the common pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pipistrellus), soprano pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pygmaeus), Kuhl's pipistrelle (Pipistrellus kuhlii), and the grey long-eared bat (Plecotus austriacus). The surveys are being conducted as part of a Species Management Plan (SMP) and will cover the entire SMP area, which spans approximately 3800 hectares. The primary objective is to identify and map larger summer roosts and maternity roosts for these bat species. The scope of work will involve detailed field surveys, potentially including bat detection techniques, roost identification, and population assessments. The data collected will be crucial for informing the implementation and effectiveness of the Species Management Plan, ensuring the conservation of these protected bat populations within the designated area. The successful bidder will be responsible for conducting these surveys professionally and delivering comprehensive reports.
