Habitats of Sibling Species from the Arvalis Group (Microtus, Arvicolinae, Rodentia) in the Territory of Big Cities in the Middle Urals
Species identification and an analysis of the peculiarities of habitat distribution of common sibling vole species in urbanized territories near the northern limit of the sympatric zone in the Urals were carried out. Sampling was performed in 2009-2014 in two big cities, Ekaterinburg and Nizhniy Tag...
