Abstract
Recent examination of Microtus skulls from the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska by myself and then Gordon Jarrell from the University of Alaska-Fairbanks determined that voles captured since 1977 were Tundra Voles Microtus oeconomus and not Meadow Voles Microtus pennsylvanicus as previously reported. This discovery indicates that Meadow Voles are probably not indigenous to the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska.
