Non-aggressive social behaviour rhythms of Bandicota bengalensis were studied in the laboratory. The species exhibited 95 % rhythmicity for social behaviour but the rhythms were uni-or bimodal and were influenced by the Dumber and sex of interacting conspecifics, Peaks occurred at 0900 and 1800 hr. Males were more socially active than females.
