Abstract excerpt
The Lusitanian (Microtus lusitanicus) and the Mediterranean (Microtus duodecimcostatus) pine voles are recently diverged sister species endemic of the Iberian Peninsula that can be identified with ecological and morphological characters, but in areas where the 2 species co-occur, species designation may be difficult. Genetic discrimination between M. lusitanicus and M. duodecimcostatus has not been achieved yet...
