Lasiurus borealis Red Bat The red bat ranges throughout much of temperate and subtropical North America and is abundant in some areas. In Colorado, how- ever, it apparently never has been common. Red bats roost singly in trees or shrubs and evidently are confined to riparian communi- ties in the eastern part of the state. The pres- ent status of Lasiurus borealis in Colorado is not known. The most recent recorded capture in the state is August 1911 (Warren, 1912a:7). As in adjacent plains states, L. borealis is a summer resident, migrating southward in win- ter. The red bat is known from a number of localities in western Kansas, records being available from along the Arkansas River in Hamilton County, as well as from the High Plains at Hays (Jones et al, 1967:17). Rec- ords from western Nebraska are few (Jones
