The long-fingered bat (latin Myotis capaccinii) is a carnivorous species of vesper bat that is native to coastal areas of the Mediterranean and the Balkans, from the eastern Iberian Peninsula to the coastal areas of Turkey, Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, and northwestern Africa
It lives in caves or mines, forming colonies of a few tens to thousands of individuals. It hunts its food on the surface of wetlands (swamps, lakes, rivers, river deltas) and much less often in forests and scrublands.
