Pipistrellus arabicus Harrison, 1979 The Arabian pipistrelle (Hypsugo arabicus) is a species of vesper bat in the family Vespertilionidae.

"[2] It is insectivorous, consuming Auchenorrhynchans, beetles, and hymenopterans.

[3][4] The species is found in the Arabian Peninsula and Western Asia.

[1] A 2002 study noted that the species had been documented in Iran.

While its extent of occurrence—spanning Iran to Oman—is relatively large, it is possible that its area of occurrence could be much smaller.
