) patches of tundra. On St. Matthew Island, the Insular Vole is most abundant in moist lowlands and on lower slopes. Burrows are in well-vegetated rocky outcroppings. It is not found in dry lowlands or in areas with much standing water.

Insular Voles breed from May until mid-August. Gestation is likely ¢.21 days, and an average of six embryos perlitter have been reported. Young are furred by six days of age, eyes open at eleven days, and weaning occurs at 15 days.

Population fluctuations of Insular Voles have not been examined because they live in remote areas and are difficult to study. They construct burrows and live in colonies near rocky ridges or along small streams in well-drained soils of lower elevations of Bering Sea Islands. Burrows can be up to 20 cm underground and can include grass-lined nesting chambers. Larger chambers, up to 26-50 cm in size, are used to store roots, grasses, willow shoots, and herbaceous annuals. Like their close relative, the Singing Vole (M.
