Talk:Field Guide/Mammals/Northern Myotis

In your opening paragraph about the size of the Northern Myotis you include that the tragus is longer than other bats. Perhaps you could use this in your similar species section to show how they differentiate. When reading through your description the only thing that stands out that may confuse readers is the term cartilaginous structure. Is there a way you could further explain what this means or simplify it? Remember the audience may not be an expert in the field. In your similar species section the only thing I recommend changing is using italics when stating a species scientific name. In your diet section you have a sentence that says, “which often are often captured by gleaning,” you should revise this sentence and omit one of the oftens. In the activity section you state that the Northern Myotis hibernate and are primarily nocturnal but do they migrate at all? The reproduction section states twice that the Northern Myotis gives birth to only one bat. This could be fixed by eliminating one of the sentences to avoid redundancy. You have a wonderful notes section that is extremely informative! Overall, the content is very well laid out the only changes I would make are small.
