East Asian Free-tailed Bat

The East Asian free-tailed bat was formerly considered the same species as the European free-tailed bat. It has a forearm measuring 57–65mm and the long, narrow wings characteristic of a fast-flying free-tailed bat. The opened general account places its range across China, the Korean Peninsula and adjacent East Asia, while the Korean catalogue independently records it in South Korea (Wikipedia, general species account; Wildlife of Korea occurrence records).

The available account does not provide dependable species-level details for habitat, diet, breeding or roost selection, so those subjects are omitted rather than inferred from related free-tailed bats. Reliable field separation should use verified measurements and diagnostic characters instead of range alone. Its documented Korean occurrence makes it part of the regional fauna, but the opened sources do not identify a dependable viewing locality (Wikipedia, general species account; Wildlife of Korea occurrence records).
