The Mediterranean horseshoe bat fur is fluffy, with a light grey base. The dorsal side is grey-brown, with sometimes a slight reddish tinge, while the ventral side is white. The length is 43-58 mm, with a 22-30 mm tail. The wingspan is 300 and 320 mm. It weights between 8 and 17.5 grams. The strange shape of the nose is similar to a horseshoe (as in all the Rhinolophus bats). It lives in warm, wooded areas in foothills with caves, where are the roosts and nurseries. As all the European bats, it eats insects, preferring moths. |
