Of the 23 sites, 8 were established as fixed survey sites for sampling at repeated intervals from January 2019 through January 2021. We surveyed each fixed site at least once per four-month period (January\u2013April, May\u2013August, September\u2013December), with a survey comprising one to three netting events. Additional opportunistic surveys were conducted at alternate sites or on alternate dates. We captured 138 unique bats (37 female, 101 male) and recaptured 10 bats over 224 mist-netting events. Of the total 148 captured bats we affixed 131 with radio transmitters and attempted to relocate 127 (38 female; 89 male; 120 adult; 7 juvenile) bats in trees or forest stands used for day roosts on subsequent days of tracking. Of 91 bats (32 female; 59 male) relocated, males retained transmitters longer than females with a mean low estimate of 9 \u00b1 6 days for males and 6 \u00b1 4 days for females (time from capture to the last day a signal was confirmed). \nThis data release consists of three tabular datasets: (1) Hawai\u02bbi Island \u02bb\u014dpe\u02bbape\u02bba mist netting effort, 2018\u20132021, (2) Hawai\u2018i Island \u02bb\u014dpe\u02bbape\u02bba captures, 2018\u20132021, and (3) Hawai\u02bbi Island \u02bb\u014dpe\u02bbape\u02bba transmitter retention, 2018-2021.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9G4A2E3", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.63326026d34e900e86c5be8e.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_63326026d34e900e86c5be8e", "keyword": ["Hawaiian hoary bat", "USGS:63326026d34e900e86c5be8e", "bats", "biota", "endangered species", "mist netting", "telemetry", "wildlife biology"], "modified": "2023-06-20T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-156.0608, 18.9063, -154.7864, 20.0146", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Hawai\u2018i Island \u02bb\u014dpe\u02bbape\u02bba (Hawaiian hoary bat; Lasiurus semotus) mist netting effort, capture, and tag retention, 2018\u20132021"}
