Does water vole diet meet the prerequisites of the “plant hypothesis” for explaining population cycles?

Ecosphere
Rodent population cycles are observed in highly seasonal environments. As most rodents are herbivorous, the availability and the quality of their food resources vary greatly across seasons. Furthermore, it is well documented that herbivore densities have

Fossorial Form of Water Voles Select and Overexploit High-Quality Habitats, Hindering Future Colonizations Evidence From Drone-Based Monitoring of Dandelion-Vole Interactions in Mountain Meadows. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Dandelion‐rich plots are more likely to be colonized by voles. In plots with low dandelion density, areas denser than the plot average are also more likely to be colonized. We also found evidence that existing burrows are more likely to be reused by new voles if dandelions were still present.

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 Wildlife
Echinococcus 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.

Grazing by sheep Ovis aries reduces island populations of water voles Arvicola amphibius

Fauna Norvegica, 2014
The population of water voles Arvicola amphibius was surveyed on 21 islands in the Solvær archipelago, northern Norway, in August 2012; 11 islands with semi-wild domestic sheep Ovis aries and 10 islands without sheep. Signs from water voles are very easy

Global Prevalence and Subtype Distribution of Blastocystis sp. in Rodent Populations: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Overall, 16% of rodents worldwide were infected with Blastocystis sp. (95% CI: 12.6%–20.2%). Rodents host various Blastocystis sp. subtypes (STs), including ST1‐ST8, ST10, ST13, ST15 and ST17. The most commonly reported STs in rodents globally were ST4, ST5, ST1 and ST3.

Foraging Habitat Availability and the Non-Fish Diet Composition of the Grey Heron (Ardea cinerea) at Two Spatial Scales [PDF]

Animals
Habitat structure on foraging ground is one of the crucial factors determining diet diversity in colonially breeding avian predators. Quantifying the habitat and diet composition at different spatial scales (regional and local inter-colonial) can help ...

Mitochondrial Genome Evolution, Genetic Diversity, and Population Structure in British Water Voles (Arvicola amphibius). [PDF]

Genes (Basel), 2021
The European water vole (Arvicola amphibius) is a rodent within the subfamily Arvicolinae. In Britain, water voles have declined rapidly during the last century, making them a conservation priority. The relationship of Arvicola to other genera within Arvicolinae remains debated.

Historical distribution of Arvicola cf. amphibius (Mammalia, Rodentia, Cricetidae) in southern Tuscany [La distribuzione storica di Arvicola cf. amphibius (Mammalia, Rodentia, Cricetidae) in Toscana meridionale]

, 2007
Arvicola cf. amphibius occurs in most regions of peninsular Italy, showing a rather patchy distribution in central and southern districts. The literature, museum specimens and unpublished data show that the species was once present in coastal areas and in some inland localities of southern Tuscany.
