Description:

The Cabrera vole (Microtus cabrerae Thomas 1906) in an endemic and endangered species of the Iberian Peninsula. The voles inhabited "juncales", small patches of sedge-rushes and grasses (usually less than 250 m2 in area). The feeding of Cabrera vole was studied through faecal pellet analysis. The voles voles consumed mainly grasses and sedge-rushes (over 60% of the diet). Both plant taxon were the main items consumed all year round. Finally, the role of the habitat stability was discussed in relation to the species conservation.
