Author: | Strautman, 1949. | Citation: | Vestn. Akad. Nauk Kazakh. SSR, 5: 109. | Common Name: | Gray Birch Mouse | Type Locality: | E Kazakhstan, Altai Mtns, N slope of Narymskiy Range, Katon-Karagay. | Distribution: | E Kazakhstan, Taiga of S Altai Mtns; see Kuznetsov (1965), Sludskii (1977), and Shenbrot et al. (1995). | Status: | IUCN – Data Deficient. | Comments: | Sokolov et al. (1982, 1987b) gave karyological, spermatozoal, and phallic characters that distinguished this species from S. napaea and S. betulina. Sicista pseudonapaea is provisionally recognized here, but requires further documentation, and the inclusion of other data sets, to establish its specific status. Recognized by Pavlinov and Rossolimo (1998) and reviewed by Gromov and Erbajeva (1995) and Shenbrot et al. (1995). |
