| Summary: | (Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) In 1969–2012, the following species of small mammals were recorded in a recreation cottage on the ridge of the Orlické hory Mts. (990 m a. s. l.) by trapping, collecting of dead specimens or by other methods: Apodemus flavicollis, A. sylvaticus, Clethrionomys glareolus, Microtus arvalis, M. subterraneus, Mus musculus, Rattus norvegicus, Sorex araneus, S. minutus, S. alpinus, Crocidura suaveolens, Myotis mystacinus, M. brandtii, and Eptesicus nilssonii. This sample, excluding bats (n=456), was compared with a sample of rodents and insectivores from the nearby primeval forest of Bukačka from the years 1970–2006 (n=585, 10 species). In the forest sample, synanthropic and hemisynanthropic species M. musculus, R. norvegicus and C. suaveolens were missing but Microtus agrestis and Muscardinus avellanarius were present in addition to the building sample. The Shannon index of species diversity was significantly higher in the forest sample (LME model, F=22.9, ... |
