摘要

New excavations at Grotte des Contrebandiers, Temara, Morocco, have uncovered a micromammal fauna from Pleistocene levels of the cave comprising at least three rodent genera: Meriones, Gerbillus and Mus. This paper presents a preliminary systematic account of the rodents. Taphonomically, the assemblage is unusual for preserving micromammals in relatively low abundance compared with other, nearby cave sites of similar age.
