| Summary | "Comments on the Taxonomic Status of Apodemus peninsulae, with Description of a New Subspecies from North China" by J. Knox Jones, Jr. is a scientific publication written in the mid-20th century. It presents a detailed examination of the taxonomy of the rodent species Apodemus peninsulae, originally described in the early 20th century. The book likely focuses on the taxonomic classification of this species, specifically examining its relationships with other related species and subspecies based on specimens collected primarily from Korea and North China. In the work, Jones discusses the classification of Apodemus peninsulae and provides a new subspecies designation, Apodemus peninsulae sowerbyi, based on extensive comparisons of morphological characteristics and cranial measurements. The study highlights the distinctions of peninsulae from related species like Apodemus flavicollis and Apodemus sylvaticus, describing key differences in physical features such as skull shape, color, and reproductive traits. Through his analysis, Jones seeks to clarify the taxonomic standing of the species and its subspecies within the broader context of mammalian classification in northeastern Asia, underscoring the need for further research in this relatively under-explored area of zoology.
