Chasing intermediate hosts of Echinococcus multilocularis at the southern edge of its European distribution using red fox stomach content analysis [PDF]
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and WildlifeEchinococcus multilocularis (Em) is a Taeniidae cestode circulating among canids (definitive hosts) and among voles (intermediate hosts). Humans can develop alveolar echinococcosis (AE) following egg ingestion.

The colonization history of British water vole (Arvicola amphibius (Linnaeus, 1758)): origins and development of the Celtic fringe. [PDF]
Proc Biol Sci, 2016 The terminal Pleistocene and Early Holocene, a period from 15 000 to 18 000 Before Present (BP), was critical in establishing the current Holarctic fauna, with temperate-climate species largely replacing cold-adapted ones at mid-latitudes.

Divergence time estimation using ddRAD data and an isolation-with-migration model applied to water vole populations of Arvicola [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Molecular dating methods of population splits are crucial in evolutionary biology, but they present important difficulties due to the complexity of the genealogical relationships of genes and past migrations between populations.

Measuring animal welfare within a reintroduction: an assessment of different indices of stress in water voles Arvicola amphibius. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Reintroductions are an increasingly common conservation restoration tool; however, little attention has hitherto been given to different methods for monitoring the stress encountered by reintroduced individuals.

Distributional, morphological and karyotypic contributions for the Eurasian water vole, Arvicola amphibius (Linnaeus, 1758) (Rodentia: Mammalia), from Turkey [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2011 The present study was focused on both the new distributional records and karyological data for Arvicola amphibius from the European part of Turkey. The karyotype of the Eurasian water vole was investigated by examining its metaphase chromosomes.

Beaver Dams and Fallen Trees as Ecological Corridors Allowing Movements of Mammals across Water Barriers—A Case Study with the Application of Novel Substrate for Tracking Tunnels [PDF]
Animals, 2023 Physical obstacles within animal habitats create barriers to individual movements. To cross those barriers, specific corridors are used, some of them created by keystone species such as Eurasian beavers (Castor fiber).

Micromammals as a reservoir for the zoonotic nematode Calodium hepaticum (syn. Capillaria hepatica) in recreational areas of Slovakia [PDF]
Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne DiseasesThe hepatic nematode Calodium hepaticum is a zoonotic parasite primarily parasitising small mammals, but it can infect a wide range of mammal species, including humans.

Leptospira erinacei auriti in a Water Vole, Arvicola amphibius [PDF]
Nature, 1964 DURING the course of an investigation made by the Central Veterinary Laboratory into the incidence of leptospiral infection in small wild mammals a number of strains were recovered. Most of these apparently belong to the hebdomadis group, but one strain, W. V.14, from a water vole, was serologically in the autumnalis group. It was finally identified in
