endemic to the Caucasus is covered with small keratinized spines but lacks larger spines or penile spikes jutting out of terminus that characterize species in the Northern and Steppe species groups. Diploid numberis 2n = 36. External and cranial measurements were taken from three adult males (type series) published by V. E. Sokolov and M. I. Baskevich in 1988.

Moist subalpine forest clearings and meadows covered with tall grass and dense herbage bordering forest at elevations of 2000-2200 m. Armenian Birch Mice from type locality near head of the Marmarik River were captured on slope with tall grass near timberline.

Diet of the Armenian Birch Mouse includes fruit, seeds, and insects, according to S. K. Dahl in 1954. Sokolov and Baskevich reported that captive individuals ate grasshoppers, oat flakes, raisins, apricot pulp, and walnut kernels.

Type series of the Armenian Birch Mouse consists of three reproductively mature males with sperm in testes captured between the end ofJune and beginning of July. Testes lengths were 4-3-5-4 mm, and width was 3-6 mm.

Armenian Birch Mice are rare according to Baskevich in 2000. She captured no individuals during a small mammal survey in 1980 and recorded a relative frequently of 0-6 ind/100 cone trap-days during a later survey in 1986; Armenian Birch Mice comprised 3:6% of all small terrestrial mammals (rodents and shrews) captured.

|

Classified as Endangered on The IUCN Red List. The Armenian Birch Mouseis also listed in the Red Book ofArmenia by L.. Sahakyan in 2010 due to its small distribution of less than 5000 km?, fewer than five collection localities, and continued decline of suitable habitat outside protected areas; population trends were classified as decreasing. Greatest threats to the Armenian Birch Mouse are human activities such as overgrazing and agricultural cutting oftall grass, according to Baskevich in 2000, Sahakyan in 2010, and S. Baloyan and colleagues in 2015. Protected areas are needed to enhance conservation of the Armenian Birch Mouse.
