Hello Ahmet!
Many thanks for your time and suggestion about species name. I am not specialist from Chiroptera (even if I like to photograph them) so I have a questions :)
You wrote that this is Rhinolophus hipposideros while Ivan (Argus) suggested that it can be Rhinolophus mehelyi (really later I checked it and in Magura cave there were noted only 2 species from this genus - greater and lesser horseshoe bats so your suggestion looks really good). What is the main difference between these two bats? And with R. ferrumequinum which as the second species from this genus is known from this cave. If I remember the most important are head (face?) characters, but without any good book I can see the differences. I would be grateful for any explanation :)
Thank you in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Radomir
