Comments on the Taxonomy and Geographic Distribution of North American Microtines

This is a scientific commentary on the taxonomy and geographic distribution of North American Microtines. Microtines (also called Arvicolinae) are a subfamily of rodents that includes the voles, lemmings, and muskrats. They are most closely related to the other subfamilies in the Cricetidae (comprising the hamsters and New World rats and mice.) The book is the work of E. Raymond Hall and E. Lendell Cockrum, from the University of Kansas.
