There are over 20 species of hamsters, which are related to voles, lemmings, and mice. (xxlmassgewand.de)
Also unresolved are the affinities of subfamilies containing only one genus (mouselike hamsters, the maned rat ). (en-academic.com)
Murinae2
There are hundreds of types of mice, belonging to the subfamily Murinae or other related groups. (thepetshopinc.com)
The 300 genera of muroid rodents are classified within 18 subfamilies, but more than 200 of them (and nearly 1,000 species) belong to only two subfamilies-Sigmodontinae (New World rats and mice) and Murinae (Old World rats and mice). (en-academic.com)
Muridae4
Two-thirds of all rodent species and genera belong to family Muridae. (en-academic.com)
Not all specialists agree on the number of subfamilies or that all of these should be included within Muridae. (en-academic.com)
Pending better resolution of the relationships between these problem groups, some specialists prefer to retain them as subfamilies within Muridae, but others still separate them as families under the umbrella of Muroidea. (en-academic.com)
New World hantaviruses are carried by different species of sigmodontine and arvicoline rodents ( Muridae ). (cdc.gov)
Genus5
A guinea pig is a domesticated rodent that belongs to the cavy family (Caviidae) and the genus Cavia. (thepetshopinc.com)
A rat is a rodent that belongs to the genus Rattus or is closely related to it. (thepetshopinc.com)
Woodland hedgehog belongs to the Erinaceus genus of a hedgehog from the family of Erinaceidae. (mammalage.com)
Viruses in the Hantavirus genus are unique among them because all members (except Thottapalayam virus) are rodent-borne. (cdc.gov)
A genus of the family HERPESVIRIDAE, subfamily ALPHAHERPESVIRINAE, consisting of herpes simplex-like viruses. (lookformedical.com)
Arvicolinae1
Two other subfamilies (Arvicolinae and Gerbillinae) include approximately 250 additional species, with the remaining 14 subfamilies accommodating various other genera, some of which consist of a single species. (en-academic.com)
Genera6
Four of the seven living genera include extinct species. (wikipedia.org)
Other groups, however, cannot be classified with certainty and may or may not be a hodgepodge of unrelated genera and species (New World rats and mice, dendromurines, and Malagasy rats and mice). (en-academic.com)
455 species in 90 genera found throughout the Western Hemisphere. (en-academic.com)
145 species in 26 genera found only in the Northern Hemisphere. (en-academic.com)

Voles1
Notably, these voles have been shown to harbor four species of nematodes, one species of flea, and at least two species of tapeworms. (thewebsiteofeverything.com)
South America3
A chinchilla is a rodent native to the Andes mountains in South America. (thepetshopinc.com)
In South America, studies of the correlation between rodent hosts and indigenous hantaviruses are complicated by the great diversity of sigmodontine rodents in this area. (cdc.gov)
Also, the sympatric distributions between the different species of sigmodontine rodents in South America provide opportunities for spillover infections and host-switching events ( 10 ). (cdc.gov)
Mammals3
They are both rodents and mammals, yet one lives and nests in trees while the other lives in underground burrows.Discover the many benefits PetCoach can offer you and your practice. (xxlmassgewand.de)
During 5,230 trapping nights, 672 small mammals were trapped in the areas where most hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) cases occur in Uruguay. (cdc.gov)
The Bank vole ( Clethrionomys glareolus ), or more recently, Myodes glareolus is a small rodent belonging to the second largest family of mammals. (thewebsiteofeverything.com)
Habitats2
The rodents were trapped in all the explored environments, and most of the seropositive rodents were found in habitats frequented by humans. (cdc.gov)
The purpose of this study was to identify the carrier rodents of hantavirus in Uruguay and their potential association with HPS cases, to determine the prevalence of infection in different habitats, and to begin to genetically characterize the hantaviruses recovered from these rodents. (cdc.gov)
Mice1
largest extant rodent family, indeedthe largest of all mammalian families, encompassing more than 1,383 species of the "true" mice ( mouse ) and rats ( rat ). (en-academic.com)
Humans2
Humans have introduced some species elsewhere. (en-academic.com)
The type species of LYMPHOCRYPTOVIRUS, subfamily GAMMAHERPESVIRINAE , infecting B-cells in humans. (lookformedical.com)
Family3
The members of this family are often collectively called murids, or muroid rodents. (en-academic.com)
Inclusion of these subfamilies emphasizes their closer evolutionary relationships to one another than to any other group of rodents, but such affinity could also be expressed by recognizing each as a separate family and then bringing them together within a larger category, the superfamily Muroidea. (en-academic.com)
Fossil evidence may support the single-family arrangement because clearly diagnosable groups of living species, such as mole rats and bamboo rats, lose their distinction when their lineages are traced far back in time. (en-academic.com)
Viruses2
Sequence comparison and phylogenetic analysis showed that rodent-borne viruses and viruses from three HPS case-patients form a well-supported clade and share a 96.4% identity with the previously characterized Central Plata hantavirus. (cdc.gov)
Indeed, genetic diversity and geographic distribution of these viruses are related to the genetic diversity, geographic distribution, and phylogenetic history of their rodent hosts. (cdc.gov)
Spillover1
Thus, reindeer CWD and classical sheep scrapie isolates were similarly propagated in substrates from different species, suggesting the potential for spillover of these contagious diseases. (bvsalud.org)
Extinct1
From huge dinosaur species to scary sea creatures, these are terrifying extinct creatures that actually existed on earth. (igorbnews.com)
Phodopus1
The results of another study suggest Cricetulus kamensis (and presumably the related C. alticola) might belong to either this Phodopus group or hold a similar basal position. (wikipedia.org)
Sequence1
2006) conducted a molecular phylogenetic analysis of 12 of the above 17 species using DNA sequence from three genes: 12S rRNA, cytochrome b, and von Willebrand factor. (wikipedia.org)

These type of rodents are small in size and are covered under a coat of very thick fluffy fur. (petponder.com)
Males reach sexual maturity a little earlier than females. (petponder.com)
Females tend to be smaller, weighing between 1 and 2.5 pounds and measuring approximately 18 inches long from the nose to the tip of the tail. (gizzlevibes.com)
