174:, this is a European bat that was only very recently and thanks to DNA data recognized as a separate species. Very few sources have covered this species (the most substantial one is a book in Catalan), but I believe I have covered everything that is known and relevant to an encyclopedia. 484:"The range of Myotis escalerai remains poorly constrained, and it may be found to be more widespread than currently known." the construction "it may be found to be more widespread" is awkward - perhaps "... and further study may find it to be more widespread."? 269:"Though very similar to Myotis nattereri, it apparently differs from that species in some features of the tail membrane." What you mean by "apparently" in that sentence seems a little vague to me. How about "according to several sources" or somehting like that? 584:
Perhaps "constrained" is not the best word, but I don't like "defined" either. Its range is not something humans define, it's where it actually occurs. But we don't really know quite where it occurs, so its range is not well-constrained.
285:"For example, it occurs widely, though localized, in Aragón, where Myotis sp. A is known from a single locality only." Why is it important to mention Myotis sp. A here? What about all the other species in this complex?-- 117: 496:
Otherwise, sources look okay, links checked out with the link checker tool. I ran the article through Coren's tool and Earwig's tool and nothing showed up in regards to plagiarism with those tools.
448:"...it was included in Natterer's bat (Myotis nattereri) until molecular studies..." I'm confused - if the species was first named in 1904, how can it have been part of another named species??? 40: 370: 30: 17: 88: 83: 92: 581:"The range of Myotis escalerai remains poorly constrained" - "constrained" seems an odd word here; perhaps "defined" would be better? 75: 424:
Why? We're writing in English, not Catalan, and the island is pretty universally called "Ibiza" in English. Thanks for the review!

Yes, that's what "Mr." means. The source doesn't mention a first name for him, and just saying his last name would sound odd.
133: 138: 413:
Which source specifically gives Ibiza as a location? If it's a Catalan source, would it be better to use

sp. A is the only other one that occurs in Aragón. I've added a clarification. Thanks for your comments!

Fine article, just some minor queries. None are a big deal, just for my enlightenment
497: 214:
For Gauthier and Hutson 2010, are those file names, or is that the actual publisher?

Mr. Martínez de la Escalera — What is "Mr." an abbreviation of, can't be mister?

The above are minor quibbles that do not detract from my support. Nice work!
