Additional Notes an Some Mammals From Eastern Nebraska (original) (raw)

Field studies in eastern Nebraska focused on documenting the distribution of small mammals, particularly the short-tailed shrew (Blarina brevicauda), have revealed new locality records for several species. Notably, records were established for the masked shrew (Sorex cinereus), least shrew (Cryptotis parva), thirteen-lined ground squirrel (Spermophilus tridecemlineatus), northern grasshopper mouse (Onychomys leucogaster), and hispid pocket mouse (Perognathus hispidus). The findings contribute to the understanding of mammal distributions in Cass County, highlighting patterns of abundance and habitat preferences.
