چکیده
— A very small of species Myotis in the Myotis daubentoni group was found in a valley of the foothills of the Annamit Mountains, Quan Binh Province, Vietnam. Thirteen specimens of this bat were compared with other Eurasian big-footed bats. Analysis of external and skull morphology indicate this Vietnamese form should be described as a new species. Compared to other species of Myotis the new taxon is most closely related morphologically to the recentely described Himalayan M. csorbai Topal, 1997.
