Abstract

Microtus montebelli is one of the endemic species with few collecting records in Yamaguchi Prefecture, the westernmost location in Honshu, Japan. One male specimen of M. montebelli was captured in 602, Ooaza Susuman, Shyunan, in August 8, 2011. The habitat is abandoned paddy ields, where grasses were dominant. Referring previous collecting reports, this species inhabits the foot of mountains connected to the central mountains in the Chugoku District. With taking into account for the habitat of this species, further collecting information is needed in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
