Sub- species are: 1, M. o. haydenii; 2, M. o. ludovicianus; 3, M. o. minor; 4, M. o. ochrogaster; 5, M. 0. ohionensis; 6, M. o. similis; 7, M. o. taylori. Summary of Ecological Zoogeography It is clear from the foregoing that the largest number of species of Microtus in the New World (nine) are found in ecological for- mations associated with coniferous forest (taiga) biomes. Of these, three species occur primarily within boreal taiga (

Of these, three species occur primarily within boreal taiga (M. chrotorrhinus, M. pennsylvanicus, M. xanthognathus), three species within Pacific coastal taiga (M. canicaudus, M. oregoni, and M. townsendii), and.
