Abstract
|
|
|
|
Univariate and multivariate analyses of morphometric characters were performed with samples of three subspecies of striped field mice (Apodemus agrarius coreae, A. agrarius pallescens, and A. agrarius chejuensis). It was found that the samples of A. agrarius chejuensis from Jeju-Do were distintc from those of the other two subspecies from the Korean peninsular, whereas subspecies coreae was similar to subspecies pallescens: it is concluded that A. agrarius pallescens is a synonym of A. agrarius coreae. Further analyses will be needed to clearify the subspecific status of A. agrarius chejuensis.
