Abstract

A comparative analysis of the immunohematological parameters of bats from fauna of the Urals Myotis dasycneme (Boie, 1825) in seasonal periods of their annual life cycle is presented for the first time. Multivariate nonparametric analysis of variance showed the absence of significant gender differences in bats according to the studied parameters of red blood (p = 0.35). The sexual determination of bats was established by the content of leukocytes, band neutrophils and segments neutrophils, lymphocytes in the blood (p < 0.05). Males are characterized by a higher development of innate immunity in the summer compared to females (p < 0.05). In the autumn-winter hibernation period, males and females have a significant lymphocytic profile (50.6–53.5%), providing immune “supervision” and specifically reactive activation of the acquired adaptive immune response.
