The Javan pipistrelle is a pipistrelle bat found across South and Southeast Asia, throughout much of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, China and Southeast Asia. It favours human habitations, such as external crevices in old buildings and culverts (Wikipedia, general species account).
Reports from cities suggest it is adapted to living in them despite urban clutter, and in cities it is often found roosting singly or sparsely. The cached account gives no description, diet or breeding information (Wikipedia, general species account).
