Evolutionary history of the Altai grey vole, <i>Microtus obscurus</i> (Rodentia: Cricetidae), reconstructed using modern and ancient genomes Open
The Altai grey vole (Microtus obscurus) is a rodent species present in Western Asia, Eastern Europe, and the Near East. The taxonomic relationship of M. obscurus and its sister-species, Microtus arvalis, is a matter of ongoing debate and t…

The evolutionary history of the field vole species complex revealed by modern and ancient genomes Open
Background The field vole, an abundant and widespread microtine rodent, is a complex comprising three cryptic species. The short-tailed field vole (Microtus agrestis) is present over much of Eurasia, the Mediterranean field vole (Microtus …

Ancient DNA Contradicts the Presence of Social Voles (Genus Microtus, Subgenus Sumeriomys) in the Late Pleistocene of Western Europe Open
Taxonomic decisions made by palaeontologists are often based on a few morphological features preserved in the fossil material. This practice may sometimes lead to the description of new species based on single specimens, which are, in fact…

Ancient DNA of narrow-headed vole reveal common features of the Late Pleistocene population dynamics in cold-adapted small mammals Open
The narrow-headed vole, collared lemming and common vole were the most abundant small mammal species across the Eurasian Late Pleistocene steppe-tundra environment. Previous ancient DNA studies of the collared lemming and common vole have …

Ancient <span>DNA</span> reveals interstadials as a driver of common vole population dynamics during the last glacial period Open
Aim Many species experienced population turnover and local extinction during the Late Pleistocene. In the case of megafauna, it remains challenging to disentangle climate change and the activities of Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers as the ma…

Ancient DNA reveals interstadials as a driver of the common vole population dynamics during the last glacial period Open
1 Abstract Aim The common vole is a temperate rodent widespread across Europe. It was also one of the most abundant small mammal species throughout the Late Pleistocene. Phylogeographic studies of its extant populations suggested the Last …

Hučivá Cave: a Magdalenian hunting camp in the Tatra Mountains Open
This article discusses the objectives of the Stone Age Man in Caves of the Tatra Mountains project, which aims to explain the mysterious absence of evidence for the Palaeolithic in the Tatra Mountains of Eastern Europe. We present prelimin…

The Tien Shan vole (<i>Microtus ilaeus</i>; Rodentia: Cricetidae) as a new species in the Late Pleistocene of Europe Open
Grey voles (subgenus Microtus ) represent a complex of at least seven closely related and partly cryptic species. The range of these species extends from the Atlantic to the Altai Mountains, but most of them occur east of the Black Sea. Us…
