Discussion: Subgenus Meriones . Reviewed by Corbet (1978 c) and Pavlinov et al. (1990); regional reviews offered by G. M. Allen (1940, China), and Ma et al. (1987, Xinjiang). Range in Russia, taxonomy, contrasts with other species and additional characteristics reviewed by Gromov and Erbajeva (1995). The restriction to subgenus Meriones reflects the very distinctive male genital morphology of M. tamariscinus compared with other species of Meriones ( Pavlinov, 1986) .
