Abstract
New data on the spatio-temporal distribution of forest voles - red (Myodes rutilus Pallas) and red-gray (M. rufocanus Sundervall) - in the main types of habitats over the Prikhankayskaya plain (the Primorsky Territory) are reported. The seasonal and many years' dynamics of the numbers of these species during the years 2003-2005 is reported. The above-indicated problem was solved in view of the contradictory data available from literature concerning the distribution of the voles of Myodes genus over the Prikhankayskaya plain.
