The genus Desmodillus is monospecific, consisting of only the Cape short-eared gerbil (Desmodillus auricularis). Despite being widely distributed across southern Africa, previous studies did not find evidence of intraspecific phenotypic geographic ...

Mammal Research, 2016
Saltation is movement by means of hopping on two legs, or jumping on four. This locomotory mode is common in various taxa, including desert rodents, that inhabit open, arid environments and is associated with the elongation of hind feet and tails. Many adaptive hypotheses have been proposed to explain why saltation is common in open habitats, including

Mammal Study, 2020
. Identification of rodents usually has been done based on cranial and dental characters. Postcranial skeleton has been ignored in spite of its importance in archaeozoology for identification of skeletal remains.

Plague, a lethal zoonotic disease, primarily circulates within rodent populations and their fleas. In Iran, the widely distributed jird, Meriones persicus, serves as the principal reservoir for plague, with a belief in the existence of five out of its ...

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2016
The complete mitochondrial genome of the Mongolian gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus, was sequenced. The 16,360 bp long genome has 37 genes typical for rodent mitogenomes, including 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 13 protein-coding genes. The total GC content of the mitochondrial genome is 36.96% with the base composition of 32.61% A, 23.71% C, 13.24% G ...

The cestode Gerbillitaenia psammomi (Cyclophyllidea: Catenotaeniidae: Skrjabinotaeniinae) was found parasitizing fat sand rats (Psammomys obesus) in the south of Tunisia. The species was found previously in P. obesus from Egypt and in Meriones shawi from

Spontaneous Neoplasms in Aging Gerbillinae. A Summary of Forty-four Neoplasms
Veterinary Pathology, 1974Forty-four neoplasms were found at necropsy in 115 gerbils from a colony of wild-caught, and first- or second-generation laboratory-raised gerbils. Ten species of gerbils varying from 24 to 61 months of age were affected. The neoplasms occurred in 18 primary locations and included nine neoplasms previously unreported in gerbils.

Behavioural Divergence in Allopatric and Sympatric Gerbil Species (Rodentia: Gerbillinae)
Ethology, 1993AbstractSouthern African gerbils comprise 3 genera, each genus represented by morphologically‐ and ecologically‐similar species. All species are monomorphic, with social systems varying from asocial (Desmodillus auricularis) to colonial (Tatera species).This study compares the behaviour patterns of an allopatric species, T. afra, 2 sympatric species, T.
