The upper canine is without additional cusps or indentations, and its base is wide-oval on a crosssection. The upper small premolar is highly reduced; in some individuals, it is absent in one or both sides of the jaw. The first and second upper molars have greatly reduced hypocones and basins opened at the base of the metacone. The lower canine has a moderate secondary cusp, which is higher than the outer incisor.

. We did not find any variation in the haplotypes between the northern and southern populations of this species, suggesting that the divergence of these populations is very recent. Morphologically, as shown above, these two samples were also indistinguishable; we only found that animals from the Honshu population more frequently lacked upper small premolars. The difference in bacula size between our specimens and an individual depicted by

Hibernation sites and day roosts are in caves, artificial underground shelters and rock crevices. The population number and natural density is not known; the status of the whole population, and especially the isolated southern sub-populations, requires further in-depth study.
