Claparede speaks as if they were confined to the rodents such as field mice, but it would appear not to be wholly so. We have specimens of Listrophorus gibbus from the ferret, and another species from the polecat; and seeing that these beasts of prey must often feed on field mice, it is not very difficult to imagine that they may more or less frequently be invaded by their parasites.
