Low morphological variability within the genus Paranoplocephala has led to erroneous identification of P. omphalodes a wide range of definitive hosts. The use of molecular methods in the earlier investigations has confirmed that P. omphalodes parasitizes four vole species in Europe. We studied the distribution of P. omphalodes in Russia and Kazakhstan using molecular tools. The study of 3248 individuals of 20 arvicoline species confirmed a wide distribution of P. omphalodes. Cestodes of this species were found in Microtus arvalis, M. levis, M. agrestis, Arvicola amphibius, and also in Chionomys gud. Analysis of the mitochondrial gene cox1 variability revealed a low haplotype diversity in P. omphalodes in Eurasia. Keywords Paranoplocephala omphalodes . Cestodes . Vo le s . Haplotype . cox1 .

  • Armenia, 2018
    Armenia Mai 2018 Sophie and Manuel Baumgartner General Informations We went to Armenia for a voluntary project (Barev trails) with the WWF Armenia. We still did as much mammal watching as possible (night drives on every night). When we did, we were accompanied by wildlife expert of the WWF and guide Alik ([email protected]). Alik is probably the best guide we had so far: He is very passionate, has the right attitude and always tried his best to show us mammals. We could really feel that he enjoyed being out as much as we did and he wasn’t shy to show us his favourite mammal watching places. We are very grateful to be able to share this precious information on mammal watching. Alik has tons of knowledge mainly about mammals but also about plants and other animals as well as a great general knowledge. The only side back is that his English is not fluent, but we never had any trouble to communicate. We will go back to Armenia next year (in the very promising Khosrov forest where there are good chances to see the eurasian lynx and brown bear) and are already looking forward to this time. Tatev In Armenia we met the most welcoming people so far. The food is great there is a great historical heritage and most importantly true wilderness: No need to look for a long time where to put a camera trap so that people wouldn’t be photographed by it or find it. Sadly, hunting is not yet well regulated and out of a few hundred wolves in the country 200 can be shot in a year.

The taxonomic status of Schelkovnikov’s Pine Vole Microtus schelkovnikovi (Rodentia, Mammalia). Acta zoologica cracoviensia, 50A(1-2): 67-72. Abstract. A comparison of morphological and karyological traits as well as an analysis of ecological preferences and the distribution pattern support the opinion that Microtus schelkovnikovi does not belong to subgenus Terricola and is the sole member of its own taxonomic species group. Hyrcanicola subgen. nov. comprises a single species Microtus (Hyrcanicola) schelkovnikovi, an endemic and relict form, inhabiting the Hyrcanian broad-leaved forest zone of Azerbaijan and Iran.

E-mail: [email protected] I. INTRODUCTION Schelkovnikov’s Pine Vole (Microtus schelkovnikovi SATUNIN, 1907) is one of the most enig- matic voles represented in natural history collections by only 45-50 specimens globally. This spe- cies was described by K. A. SATUNIN, on the basis of a single male specimen collected by A. B. SHELKOVNIKOV, July 6, 1906 near the village of Dzhi, in Azerbaijan (SATUNIN 1907). Next, 14 specimens from Azerbaijan, were found by KH.M.ALEKPEROV 50 years later in 1956 and 1957 (ALEKPEROV 1959).

Les oiseaux sélectionnaient les secteurs où les densités de ces rongeurs prairiaux étaient non seulement les plus élevées mais aussi distribuées de manière la plus homogène. Le succès moyen des tentatives de capture était de 32 %. Les performances de chasse entre mâles dans les différents milieux fréquentés (prairies, pâtures, marais) n'étaient pas significativement différentes. Cependant le nombre de jeunes à 1' envol était fortement corrélé (r = 0,89) au succès de capture des mâles. Il semble donc que, compte tenu de l'homogénéité des populations de proies, le succès de reproduction ait bien été déterminé par les performances de chasse des mâles. Le régime alimentaire fut étudié à partir de 192 pelotes, totalisant 297 proies identifiables. La recherche de corrélations entre les tentatives de capture par les mâles et la proportion des différentes espèces de rongeurs dans le régime alimentaire des couples a montré que les proportions de Campagnol des champs et de Campagnol agreste (Microtus agrestis) étaient liées à l'effort de chasse des mâles dans l'habitat typique de chaque espèce de rongeur (respectivement r = 0,97 pour la prairie permanente et le Campagnol des champs, et r = 0,96 pour les marais et le Campagnol agreste).

  • Early Middle Pleistocene Ellobius (Rodentia, Cricetidae, Arvicolinae) from Armenia Cлепушонка Ellobius (Rodentia, Crice
    Russian J. Theriol. 15(2): 151–158 © RUSSIAN JOURNAL OF THERIOLOGY, 2016 Early Middle Pleistocene Ellobius (Rodentia, Cricetidae, Arvicolinae) from Armenia Alexey S. Tesakov ABSTRACT. A large mole vole from the early Middle Pleistocene of Armenia shows morphological features and hyposodonty intermediate between basal Early Pleistocene E. tarchancutensis and the late Middle Pleistocene to Recent southern mole vole E. lutescens. The occlusal morphology of the first lower molar is similar to Early Pleistocene forms but hypsodonty values do not overlap either with Early Pleistocene mole voles (higher in the described form) or with extant E. lutescens (lower in the described form); these features characterise the Armenian form as a new chronospecies Ellobius (Bramus) pomeli sp.n., ancestral to the extant southern mole vole. Three phyletic lineages leading to two extant Asian species and to Pleistocene North African group of mole voles are suggested within Ellobius (Bramus). KEY WORDS: Ellobius, Bramus, phylogeny, early Middle Pleistocene, Armenia. Alexey S. Tesakov [[email protected]], Geological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Pyzhevsky str., 7, Moscow 119017, Russia. Cлепушонка Ellobius (Rodentia, Cricetidae, Arvicolinae) начала среднего плейстоцена Армении А.С.Тесаков РЕЗЮМЕ. Ископаемая крупная слепушонка из отложений начала среднего плейстоцена Армении по морфологии и гипсодонтии занимает промежуточное положение между раннеплейстоценовыми E. tarchancutensis и современной закавказской слепушонкой E. lutescens. По строению жевательной поверхности арямянская форма близка к раннеплейстоценовым слепушонкам, а значения гипсодон- тии у этой формы занимают промежуточное положение и не перекрываются ни с формами раннего плейстоцена (выше у описываемой формы), ни с современной E. lutescens (ниже у армянской формы). Эти признаки характеризуют новый хроновид Ellobius (Bramus) pomeli sp.n., предковый по отношению к современной E.
