Savi's Pipistrelle, Hypsugo savii (also often given as Pipistrellus savii) is a species of vesper bat found across Eurasia. Its summer habitat is not known, but in winter it favors caves, old buildings, and rock crevices. The Hypsugo savii and the Pipistrellus kuhlii have a share of similarities. They live rather close to each other, and their eating habits, selection of homes, hunting behavior, and reproduction are found to be very similar.
