Abstract:

Literature survey has revealed similarity of ecological niches of bank voles and yellow-necked mice. Behavioral observations that show subordination of bank voles to yellow-necked mice suggest that the latter is a superior competitor. Nevertheless, neither spatial nor time separation of those species can be evidenced. Competition between these species seems to be occasional (or rare). Perhaps, their microhabitat niches are sufficiently separated to allow for coexistence.
