The Baculum in Microtine Rodents

The Baculum in Microtine Rodents, published in 1960 by Sydney Anderson, is a scientific examination of the baculum, a bone found in the penis of many placental mammals. The work focuses on its anatomical features and significance in the taxonomy and evolutionary relationships among microtine rodents, particularly the genus Microtus. Anderson discusses methodologies for specimen collection and preservation, providing a detailed analysis of variations across species, which contributes to understanding species diversity and classification in this group of rodents.
