They range in size from the Taiwan broad-muzzled bat, at 3 cm (1 in) plus a 3 cm (1 in) tail, to the large myotis, at 10 cm (4 in) plus a 6 cm (2 in) tail. Like all bats, myotines are capable of true and sustained flight , and have wing lengths ranging from 2 cm (1 in) to 7 cm (3 in).
The California myotis is largely free of ectoparasites commonly found on other bat species, such as fleas, ticks, flies, lice, and bed bugs. However, mites have occasionally been found on the dorsal wings of the California myotis. [4] The dental formula for M. californicus is 2.1.3.3 3.1.3.3 × 2 = 38 [5] Skull of a California Myotis

Myotis species are remarkably long-lived for their size; in 2018, researchers revealed that a longitudinal study appears to indicate that Myotis telomeres do not shrink with age, and that telomerase does not appear to be present in the Myotis metabolism. 13 species of Myotis bats live longer than 20 years and 4 species live longer than 30 years.
The specimen he collected was described by Oldfield Thomas as a member of the black myotis (Myotis nigricans). [2] In 1928, the specimen collected by Forrer was identified as the California myotis (Myotis californicus). [3] In 1978, the Myotis bats of Tres Marías Islands were elevated to species level, receiving the name Myotis findleyi. [4]

M. californicus seems to spread its uropatagium widely only when hovering or performing other maneuvers requiring a departure from straight level flight, but the extreme maneuverability observed in M. californicus is probably due to the specializations of its sensory equipment. [2] With short, broad wings, it can fly at low speeds using minimal ...
