A population of Pipistrellus nathusii was investigated in the model Protected Landscape Area Trebonsko (South Bohemia). Systematic research of this species has been ongoing there since 1996. Unlike other species, which have been studied using similar research methods, this is a form whose annual life cycle and area distribution are characterized by seasonal long- distance migration of the entire population. Its social structure and mating system are not generally noted in species with similar characteristics. The object of the analysis was a group of 304 individuals, including 45 resident males, 98 adult females and 161 juveniles, captured in 3 Summer colonies during two consecutive seasons. From 15 verified micro-satellite markers, 4 of them, which a displayed standard high level of alelic polymorphism (24-85), were chosen for routine use. It has been shown, that the micro-satellite analysis employed enables highly reliable identification of individuals, and the identification of family relationships. The distribution of documented paternity illustrates that the multiple reproductive effect of certain males and the increased proportion in...
