abstract |
Data on the species composition, relative abundance and habitat distribution of small mammals based on the results of summer surveys conducted in 1961 near Lake Chernikove are presented. The lake is located in the floodplain of the Siverskyi Donets River, in the territory of the Serebrianka Forestry. The total amount of surveys was 900 trap-nights, and 258 specimens of 11 species of small mammals were collected. Among the animals captured are 4 species of insectivores and 7 species of rodents. The dominant species were Apodemus agrarius (34.5%), Sorex araneus (22.1%), Myodes glareolus (16.3%), and Sylvaemus sylvaticus (16.3%). The remaining 7 species have a much smaller share (0.8–3.5%). Among the latter are Neomys fodiens, N. milleri, Sorex minutus, Micromys minutus, Mus musculus, Microtus levis, and M. subterraneus. The most important finds in this second group in terms of faunistics are those of Neomys milleri, Micromys minutus, and Microtus subterraneus, which are among the most eastern records of these species. |
