摘要: This study summarizes the data on population structure of Deomys ferrugineus, Hybomys lunaris Lophuromys dudui mainland and Praomys jacksoni as well islands Congo River. All species at these three localities show a stable without seasonal variation. Reproduction populations is probably continuous year-round, with subadult presence during whole year. The island P. have different from population, caused by periodic inundations. sex-ratio even for L. H. lunaris. For D. ferru- gineus however, more males were captured mainland. On islands, pattern not clear cut differs between years. No variation in has been found our populations.
