An investigation was conducted to determine the diversity and abundance of bat fauna in some of the major caves of east Jaintia hills district of Meghalaya. A total of 11 bat species of 04 families were recorded from the surveyed caves. A few of the caves were found to be devoid of any discernable bat population while another few still harbour a significant populations of several bat species and thus could be priority areas for future conservation initiatives.
