Published in 2019 at "Bulletin of Entomological Research"

DOI: 10.1017/s0007485319000087

Abstract: Abstract The is insufficient knowledge of arthropod communities occurring in specific microhabitats. In this study, we characterize the arthropod assemblages inhabiting burrows of the common hamster (Cricetus cricetus L.) and factors that determine their diversity… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Royal Society Open Science"

DOI: 10.1098/rsos.250499

Abstract: Biodiversity decline is particularly pronounced in agricultural areas, where intensive farming practices have severely altered the ecosystems. In Alsace (France), this has led to the decline of the common hamster (Cricetus cricetus), a farmland-inhabiting hibernator.… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Mammalia"

DOI: 10.1515/mammalia-2017-0097

Abstract: Abstract This study applied the analysis of stable isotope ratios as a minimally-invasive tool to estimate the diet of Cricetus cricetus for the first time. We took hair and food samples of three different populations… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Sustainability"

DOI: 10.3390/su13126793

Abstract: The common hamster is a critically endangered species, but it is also perceived as a pest. Searching for an economic reason for its protection can be an argument to prevent its extinction. The purpose of… read more here.
