abstract

Materials on findings of birch mice in Ukraine are extremely incomplete and require verification, so the relative abundance of species and their distribution are estimated based on collections of natural history museums of Ukraine, both academic and university museums. In general, the de-tailed descriptions of 30 specimens of S. strandi (10 records) collected during 1951–2000 are pre-sented. Each record is given with all of the important details (collection, numbers, specimen types, location, date, and collector), and appropriate comments are given for all problematic data: species identification, publication data, location, date, or collector. Analysis of the distribution of speci-mens by months showed that specimens of S. strandi were collected mainly from May to August, and the whole period of seasonal activity covers not more than 4 months (10 decades), in fact from 12 of May to 24 of August. A map showing the geographical location of collecting sites of the described material is presented, supplemented by other record localities of the species, includ-ing records of karyotyped specimens and other findings.
