Lacking karyo- logical data from Iran, it is best to consider M irani as an independent species, known solely from its type locality. The identity of Microtus "'socialis'' 2n = 60 Microtus ''socialis'' 2n = 60 was described by Kefelioglu & Krystufek (1999). Their description was based on 13 specimens, all collected from a single locality in the vicinity of Konya, Turkey. Because the diploid number of 2n = 60 had already been reported for M. irani (Zima & Král 1984), we hesitated to apply a specific name until the scope of M irani had become better understood. It is now evident that the Konya voles are morphologically very different from true M. irani. Furthermore, they also differ, both karyologically and morphologically, from other Turkish social voles, and thus deserve to be recognised as a new Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Zoologisches Forschungsinstitut und Museum Alexander Koenig.
