Habitat:
This species has been taken in wet pine-oak forest, also in a variety of habitats including desert scrub, dry forest, and ponderosa pines (Reid 2009). Day roosts have been reported, night roosts include buildings, mines, and caves (Barbour and Davis 1969). Activity usually begins 1 to 2 hours after sunset, later than most myotis bats. The food consists mainly of moths gleaned from tree trunks or walls of buildings. In Arizona, single young are born in late June or July (Warner 1982, Reid 2009).
Range:
This species occurs from Arizona and New Mexico (USA) to Jalisco and Veracruz (Mexico), and Guatemala (Simmons 2005). It occurs from lowlands to 2,200 m (Reid 2009).

Found in protected areas in the United States as well as in Mexico (Arroyo-Cabrales pers. comm.).
