Home range size, habitat selection, and mycophagy of sympatric North American flying squirrels
Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract The northern flying squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus) is a mycophagous specialist (i.e., having a fungi‐dominated diet) which might be displaced following northward range expansion by the congeneric southern flying squirrel (Glaucomys volans). Loss of the northern flying squirrel could, in turn, limit fungi spore dispersal in forest communities ...
