Glycerol permeability in two species of Peromyscus
… in rates of osmotic hemolysis within the genus Peromyscus. The four species studied were: P. eremicus fraterculus, P. leucopus noveboracensis, P. gossypinus palmarius, and P. T. truei. Consistent differences in hemolysis times were demonstrated and it was possible to identify each species with …

An Analysis of Species Recognition in Sympatric, Allopatric and Reciprocally Cross-fostered PEROMYSCUS CALIFORNICUS and PEROMYSCUS EREMICUS (Rodentia, Cricetidae)
… mate selection in two closely related species, Peromyscus californicus and Peromyscus eremicus. Comparisons were made between allopatric and sympatric populations and between males and females for mate selection performance. Both species made significant choice for the homospecific chambers. …

Morphological Variation of the Genus Peromyscus in Nebraska
… the geographic variation within most species. Peromyscus does, indeed, encompass a large number of species. In 1964, Hooper and Musser suggested some modifications of the current classification to include 13 species-groups. Within these 13 groups, they named 59 species, most of which they …

The Analysis of a Substrate Preference of PEROMYSCUS (Rodentia: Cricetidae)
… conditions. In three-compartmented choice boxes, Peromyscus californicus and P. eremicus chose a compartment with rocks and a sandy floor over a compartment with just a sandy floor but P. maniculatus did not show a preference. In a similar experiment, in continual total darkness, the three species …

Seasonal dispersal tendencies of sylvan deer mice (peromyscus maniculatus) with montana rangelands
… seasonal dispersal habits of sylvan deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) within two Montana rangeland types over a three - year period. The rangeland types included a grassland and shrub-steppe habitat. Within the state of Montana, both habitat types commonly contain peridomestic settings due to …

Causes and consequences of the postfire increase in deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) abundance
<p>Wildfire triggers an increase in deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) abundance. Here, I describe this phenomenon, investigate its causes, and explore the consequences of the postfire increase in mice for conifer recruitment in burned forest. I documented a shift in small mammal communities away …

The Effects of Social Stress on Reproduction in a Wild Deermouse Population (Peromyscus Leucopus)
Seton (1909) stimulated wide interest in the fluctuation of population density of Arctic mammals. However, his account of suicidal migrations of lemmings was based on legend, as were the accounts of periodic erruptions of house mice, rats and voles. Since then, many investigations have presented …

A Seasonal Study of the Pituitary-Gonadal-Adrenal Axes in Peromyscus Leucopus from Natural Environments
Since Elton’s account and description of population cycles in 1924, a vast amount of research has been undertaken to ascertain what animals have three to four ye a r cyclic fluctuations and what mechanisms are responsible for these seemingly predictable changes. For many years the spectacular …

The acceptability and palatability of certain feeds, diluents, and poisons to pitymys, microtus, and peromyscus
Among the mice trapped for use in cage trials, gravid females were caught from January through August. Pine mice, intergradations between Pitymys pinetorum scalopsoides and P. pinetorum pinetorum, were found most easily trapped from January through June. The time and energy involved in trapping …
