In this study, we present 10 new microsatellite markers for a carnivorous bat, Megaderma lyra (family Megadermatidae). Out of 10 loci, only one locus showed a statistically significant value (P < 0.05) for F(IS) coefficient, and one was found to be X-linked. These loci were tested on 189 individuals representing four populations from southern India, and all loci were highly polymorphic. The mean number of observed alleles per locus was 10.1 (range from 6 to 16). Expected heterozygosity values ranged from 0.54 to 0.91. These polymorphic markers will be used to examine population structure, mating and dispersal behaviour of M. lyra in the field.
