ORGANIC FARMS AS REFUGES FOR SMALL MAMMAL BIODIVERSITY [PDF]
, 2009 Habitat fragmentation, the process by which relatively continuous habitats is broken into smaller pieces, occurs in natural systems but is to a high degree also human- induced through landscape use.

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.In the wild, individuals consistently differ in movement and space use behaviours, depending on their personality. This variation can lead to personality–habitat associations and spatial structuring, potentially generating individual niche segregation.

Small mammals of the suburban areas of Warsaw in the diet of the tawny owl Strix aluco
Studia Ecologiae et Bioethicae, 2020 We investigated the composition of small mammals at nine locations in the southwestern suburban zone of Warsaw (central Poland) through the analysis of the pellets of the Tawny owl Strix aluco. In total, we recorded 611 individuals of 15 species of small

, 2018 Genus Myodes Pallas, 1811 Because molecular analysis did not support Myodes as a monotypic genus (Lebedev et al. 2007; Buzan et al. 2008), Pavlinov and Khlyap (2012) separated Craseomys from Myodes. As a consequence, a single species, Myodes rutilus characterizes the Genus Myodes in Korea.

Dominant deer mice show the importance of abundance in competition
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Detecting competitive interactions is important for predicting species responses to environmental change but remains challenging, especially over large scales. Modern coexistence theory predicts that reduced ecological trait overlap promotes coexistence through stabilizing mechanisms, while fitness differences generate competitive asymmetries.

Whisker touch sensing guides locomotion in small, quadrupedal mammals [PDF]
, 2018 All small mammals have prominent facial whiskers that they employ as tactile sensors to guide navigation and foraging in complex habitats. Nocturnal, arboreal mammals tend to have the longest and most densely packed whiskers, and semi-aquatic mammals ...

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.We provide a systematic review of methodologies used to study personality in small mammals. We propose adopting ‘Standardised Experimental Design’ and ‘Behavioural Measurements’ to effectively compare results across studies and foster progress in this field.

GENETIC ANALYSIS OF HOKKAIDO HANTAVIRUS AMONG MYODES RUFOCANUS IN THE BAIKAL LAKE AREA
Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2013 Hokkaido hantavirus (HOKV) identified originally in the grey red-backed vole (Myodes rufocanus) in Hokkaido, Japan. Subsequent studies showed different genetic lineages of HOKV in Sakhalin, Buryatia and Far Eastern regions of Russia and in China ...

A Unifying Model for the Analysis of Phenotypic, Genetic, and Geographic Data [PDF]
, 2017 Recognition of evolutionary units (species, populations) requires integrating several kinds of data, such as genetic or phenotypic markers or spatial information in order to get a comprehensive view concerning the differentiation of the units. We propose
