The Orkney vole (Microtus arvalis orcadensis) is a population of the common vole (Microtus arvalis) found in the Orkney Islands, off the northern coast of Scotland, as well as in the Channel Island of Guernsey. Orkney voles are about 10% larger than voles from other populations of the common vole. The common vole is absent from the rest of the British Isles.

  • Microtus arvalis orcadensis (Orkney vole) is een ondersoort of populatie van de veldmuis (Microtus arvalis) die alleen wordt aangetroffen op de Orkneyeilanden ten noorden van Schotland (Verenigd Koninkrijk). Deze ondersoort is groter dan de veldmuizen uit de populaties op het vasteland van Europa en Azië. Opvallend is dat deze muis verder op de Britse Eilanden niet voorkomt; daarom wordt voorondersteld dat deze veldmuis op de Orkneyeilanden door de mens is geïntroduceerd. De oudste datering van fossiele resten is 5100 jaar geleden. Uit DNA-onderzoek blijkt dat deze populatie het meest verwant is met populaties uit het kustgebied van België. Mogelijk houden de prehistorische zeevaarders die de muis daarheen brachten, verband met de neolithische cultuur op Orkney. (nl)
