Comparative hematology of the Myotis blythii

Description

Despite being a widespread group of mammals, bats have not been sufficiently studied in terms of their hematological parameters. There is a notable lack of data on the immune cells within their hematopoietic organs, such as the spleen and bone marrow, as well as on the structures involved in hematopoiesis, like erythroblastic islets. The aim of our work was to study hematological parameters including hemopoietic organs and hemoglobin in one of the most common species of bats, the lesser mouse-eared bat (Myotis blythii).
