Paleoecological implications of the first prehistoric record of water vole (Microtus richardsoni) from Washington state, USA

Quaternary Research, 2019
Remains of the North American water vole (Microtus richardsoni) have previously been recovered from late Pleistocene and Holocene deposits in southwestern Alberta, western Montana, and north-central Wyoming.

Water Vole Field Signs and Habitat Assessment

2021
An essential guide to assist those surveying for water voles, whether as a professional ecological consultant, a researcher or simply an interested amateur. This book provides detailed descriptions of all the habitats used by water voles, including ideal habitats as well as less typical places, with annotated photos to help the surveyor home in on just

Metapopulation processes and persistence in remnant water vole populations

Oikos, 2001
We examined the spatial distribution of water vole populations in four consecutive years and investigated whether the regional population processes of extinction, recolonisation and migration influence distribution and persistence. We examined how such regional processes are influenced by spatial variation in habitat quality.

Seasonal variation of Mastophorus muris (Nematoda: Spirurida) in the water vole Arvicola amphibius from southern Sweden.

Journal of Helminthology, 2018
This study focused on the spirurid nematode Mastophorus muris in water voles (Arvicola amphibius) trapped in three regions in southern Sweden during spring and fall 2013.

A Comparison of the Water Balance of the Prairie and Meadow Voles

Ecology, 1963
The habitats of the meadow vole, Microtuts pennsylvanicus, and the prairie vole, M. ochrogaster, are fairly similar; both occur almost exclusively in areas supporting graminoid vegetation. Although each species has been recorded from both moist and dry situations, it would appear that M.

Reproduction in the Water‐Vole, Arvicola amphibius Linn.

Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London, 1943
Summary.1. Reproduction in the water‐vole, Arvicola amphibius, is described from field material comprising 128 males and 95 females.2. The reproductive organs resemble those of the bank‐vole.3. The breeding season extends from the end of March to the latter half of September, but fecund males were caught in February.4.

Water Consumption by Red Tree Voles (Arborimus longicaudus)

Northwestern Naturalist, 2011
Abstract We studied consumption of free water by a sample of 7 Red Tree Voles (Arborimus longicaudus) maintained in captivity on a natural diet of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) foliage. Mean consumption of free water by individual voles was 0.016 ± 0.001 ml/g/d, which is much lower than has been reported for most other species of voles. The small

[Factors of stress in a local population of water vole].

Zhurnal obshchei biologii, 2012
Physiological mechanisms of stress have a multiple influence on the implementation of the adaptive capacity of individuals. From this perspective, analysis of factors determining the stress level of animals in changing environment acquires important ecological and evolutionary significance.
