Pelage of Dormer’s Bat is glossy grayish brown dorsally (hairs with pale tips) or occasionally yellowish brown, and paler ventrally (hairs with buffy white tips). Area around nose and lips is bare of hair and midto dark brown, along with ears, uropatagium, and wings. Veins on uropatagium are occasionally white. Ears are short and broad, and tragus is well developed with a small triangular lobe near base of outer margin. Tail is long and almost completely enclosed by uropatagium (except extreme tip). Penis is large. Skull is flattened dorsally with a distinct lambdoid crest. There is generally only one pair of upper incisors, but second pair is occasionally present, although it is minute and spiculate.

|
||
Dormer’s Bats are insectivorous. Feeding starts late in evening and they will often stay near their roosting sites. In winter,their diet consists largely of beetles, moths, grasshoppers, and crickets, while in summer and during monsoon season, they feed mostly on winged termites, beetles, moths, orthopterans, and hymenopterans. Many of their food sources are major agricultural pests, which makes the species a good means of controlling pest populations.

Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Dormer’s Bat does not seem to face any significant threats other than overuse of pesticides in agricultural ecosystems, as it often feeds on pest insects in those areas. The species works somewhat as a natural pesticide since it controls pest insect populations in agricultural environments. It may be declining in some parts of its range due to pesticide overuse.
