Mastomys natalensis and Mastomys coucha: identification, habitat preferences and population genetics
M.Sc. Two species of multimammate mice occur in South Africa, namely Mastomys natalensis and M. coucha. These species, both reservoirs for different and equally important disease pathogens, are morphologically identical with variations described in chromosome number, sperm morphology, pheromones, ultrasound and allozyme and isozyme markers.
