Smith's vole

Smith's vole (''Myodes smithii'') is a species of rodent in the family Cricetidae. It is also known as Smith's red-backed vole and is found only in Japan.
This vole is named after Richard Gordon Smith, (1858–1918) who, after falling out with his wife, traveled the world hunting for animals and keeping a record of his travels and discoveries in eight large leather-bound diaries. He spent some time in Japan where he collected mammals for the British Museum,〔(Richard Gordon Smith's Journal ). Phoenixbonsai.com. Retrieved on 2012-12-27.〕 including the type species of this vole.
==Taxonomy==
There has been considerable discussion as to the phylogeny of this species. The molars grow continually during the animal's life and because of this trait, it was at one time placed in the genus ''Phaulomys''. However, studies using mitochondrial and nuclear ribosomal DNA have shown that it is closely related to the Japanese and Asian species, ''Myodes rufocanus'', and the Korean species, ''Myodes regulus'' and that there is no support for its inclusion in ''Phaulomys''. The ever-growing molars in ''M smithii'' are now believed to be independently derived from a rooted ''Myodes'' ancestor endemic to Japan.〔(Mammal Species of the World ). bucknell.edu〕
