Description:

The distribution of the harvest mouse, Micromys minutus, was surveyed in 50 discrete patches of habitat within the City of Oxford using hair sampling tubes and live trapping, and by searching for breeding nests. Mice occured in ten habitat patches ranging in area from 0.30 ha to 1.76 ha. Animals were associated most strongly with patches containing a dense and relatively undisturbed cover of grass and herbs (orchard, scrub and long grass), but in single instances animals were found in woodland, a churchyard and an overgrown garden. Analysis of faecal pellets collected from nests and live-trapped animals showed M. minutus to be omnivorous.
