A new northern serotine bat Eptesicus nilssonii varangus subsp. nov. is described on the base of an incomplete skull and a mandibular fragment from the Lower Pleistocene deposits of the Taurida cave in the central Crimea. This is the earliest record of the species. The presence of E. nilssonii (Keyserling et Blasius, 1839) in the Early Pleistocene bat assemblage of the Taurida cave indicates that this species lived in the south of Eastern Europe before its spreading into Central and Southeastern Europe.
一种新的北方吸血蝙蝠 Eptesicus nilssonii varangus 亚种被描述,其依据是来自克里米亚中部 Taurida 洞穴下部更新世沉积物的不完整头骨和下颌骨碎片。这是该物种最早的记录。E. nilssonii(Keyserling et Blasius,1839)在 Taurida 洞穴的早更新世蝙蝠组合中存在,表明该物种在传播到中欧和东南欧之前曾生活在东欧南部。
