Apodemini
Apodemini is a Tribe (biology), tribe of Muroidea, muroid rodents in the subfamily Murinae. It contains two extant genera, one found throughout Eurasia and the other Endemism, endemic to the Ryukyu Islands. Several fossil genera are also known from throughout Eurasia, including one large species (''Rhagamys'') that persisted on Sardinia and Corsica up until at least the 1st millennium BC, first millennium BC, when it was likely wiped out by human activity. Species Recent species Species in the tribe include: * Genus ''Apodemus'' - Old World field mice ** Striped field mouse, ''Apodemus agrarius'' ** Alpine field mouse, ''Apodemus alpicola'' ** Small Japanese field mouse, ''Apodemus argenteus'' ** Chevrier's field mouse, ''Apodemus chevrieri'' ** South China field mouse, ''Apodemus draco'' ** Yellow-necked mouse, ''Apodemus flavicollis'' – includes ''A. arianus'' ** Himalayan field mouse, ''Apodemus gurkha'' ** Caucasus field mouse, ''Apodemus hyrcanicus'' ** Sichuan field mo ...

Murinae
The Old World rats and mice, part of the subfamily Murinae in the family Muridae, comprise at least 519 species. Members of this subfamily are called murines. In terms of species richness, this subfamily is larger than all mammal families except the Cricetidae and Muridae, and is larger than all mammal orders except the bats and the remainder of the rodents. Description The Murinae are native to Africa, Europe, Asia, and Australia. They are terrestrial placental mammals. They have also been introduced to all continents except Antarctica, and are serious pest animals. This is particularly true in island communities where they have contributed to the endangerment and extinction of many native animals. Two prominent murine species have become vital laboratory animals: the brown rat and house mouse are both used as medical subjects. The murines have a distinctive molar pattern that involves three rows of cusps instead of two, the primitive pattern seen most frequently in ...

Miocene
The Miocene ( ) is the first geological epoch of the Neogene Period and extends from about (Ma). The Miocene was named by Scottish geologist Charles Lyell; the name comes from the Greek words (', "less") and (', "new") and means "less recent" because it has 18% fewer modern marine invertebrates than the Pliocene has. The Miocene is preceded by the Oligocene and is followed by the Pliocene. As Earth went from the Oligocene through the Miocene and into the Pliocene, the climate slowly cooled towards a series of ice ages. The Miocene boundaries are not marked by a single distinct global event but consist rather of regionally defined boundaries between the warmer Oligocene and the cooler Pliocene Epoch. During the Early Miocene, the Arabian Peninsula collided with Eurasia, severing the connection between the Mediterranean and Indian Ocean, and allowing a faunal interchange to occur between Eurasia and Africa, including the dispersal of proboscideans into Eurasia. During the ...
