In September 2009, the species diversity of chiropteryx in Nanling Nature Reserve was investigated. 36 bats of 9 species were collected, among which Southwest Myotis bat and middle tube-nosed bat were new records in Guangdong Province. Based on the previous survey data, it is concluded that there are 25 species of chiroptera, belonging to 5 families and 12 genera, and their species diversity is very rich.
