Abstract: | The results of long-term studies on the fauna and ecology of murine rodents inhabiting the mountain forest belt of southern
Central Siberia are considered. A comparative analysis of the composition and organization of rodent communities has been
performed in 15 key plots located within three geographic-climatic facies: perhumid, humid, and semihumid. The species composition,
dominance structure, and total abundance of these communities in each facies have significant distinctive features, despite
the generally high similarity of the communities within the forest belt. Information indices have been used to determine parameters
of the diversity and evenness of communities, which reflect their state and degree of resistance to various factors. |
