Abstract

The survey of small mammal communities in the Lower Black River Basin was carried out between November 2005 and July 2012 in three locations. Using live traps several habitats have been investigated. During the study, we captured 199 individuals belonging to 9 species – 2 shrews and 7 rodents. Four other species were identified based on direct or indirect observations.
