The Eastern Small-footed Myotis is one of the smallest bats in North America. It has very small hind legs, short fur, and the ability to echolocate for hunting insects.
The Eastern Small-footed Myotis differs from other myotises by its very small feet and smaller body size. It is important for nature because it eats a large number of insects, including forest pests.
