The Murid rodent diversity has been sampled following the 9th Meridian in the east of Guinea from the forest region to Sudanian savannas of southern Mali. This represents the first small mammals survey in North Guinea. Murid diversity patterns have been researched using correspondence analysis and faunal comparisons. A difference between southern forest communities and northern ones is observed. Mastomys natalensis is found only in houses in southern Guinea while in the north it is found in all sampled habitats. M. erythroleucus is absent from the forest zone, but found from the ecotone forest-savanna to the north, and it seems that this species never enter houses. Implications for Lassa fever transmission are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
