List of classified species

[d-singer]

Hello batdetect2-team,

thank you for the really nice work, we really like the results of batdetect2 in our large scale acoustic bat monitoring in forests in Germany :)

I searched for a list of bat species that are currently included in batdetect2 but did not find information about it here on github or in the original paper. Would be great to know which species are currently included and could be detected by batdetect - maybe you could add it as a simple list included in the Readme file here on github?

Best,
David Singer

Hi @d-singer!

I'm currently documenting the code and model and will include a table with this information in the docs, thanks for the suggestion!

In the meantime, here's the list of UK species the model can detect:

• Barbastella barbastellus
• Eptesicus serotinus
• Myotis alcathoe
• Myotis bechsteinii
• Myotis brandtii
• Myotis daubentonii
• Myotis mystacinus
• Myotis nattereri
• Nyctalus leisleri
• Nyctalus noctula
• Pipistrellus nathusii
• Pipistrellus pipistrellus
• Pipistrellus pygmaeus
• Plecotus auritus
• Plecotus austriacus
• Rhinolophus ferrumequinum
• Rhinolophus hipposideros

Notes:

1. There's a typo in the current model: the barbastelle bat is displayed as Barbastellus barbastellus instead of the correct Barbastella barbastellus.
2. There has been a recent taxonomic update and the accepted name for Eptesicus serotinus is now Cnephaeus serotinus.

We'll fix these on the incoming update.
