And supposedly ear size can vary by region in Peros. But the bicolor tail, its length, the buffy body, white chest, eye size and separation all seem maniculatus. IMHO.<br /><br />Such great Zapus shots.randomtruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01941027847362672057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2024196009162417404.post-17736503869256844492012-11-01T16:09:05.687-07:002012-11-01T16:09:05.687-07:00Christopher:

I have never actually had one in hand so to say I am a novice in identifying Peromyscus would be an understatement. I will have to send you photos in the future for your thoughts.JKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16614141904786915153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2024196009162417404.post-44720603864082496252012-11-01T16:02:58.808-07:002012-11-01T16:02:58.808-07:00They are pretty damn cute especially with those gi...They are pretty damn cute especially with those giant ears!

Ha!<br /><br />My guesses would are: 10% P. boylii, 30% P. truei, and 60% P. maniculatus (I hope that added to 100%!). I would say with 99% certainty that the dorsal part of the tail is bicoloured, and I think that it is really sharp.<br /><br />Thanks for this post! There are few things I like more than agonizing Peromyscus IDs!Christopher Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151099773625000334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2024196009162417404.post-65681768808045366832012-11-01T13:18:44.516-07:002012-11-01T13:18:44.516-07:00Those mice are cute enough to sell.
