The mtDNA control region variability used to estimate the genetic diversity level in gray vole populations in the Middle Amur Region. And also the reasons for increase genetic diversity are considered. In some Maximowicz's vole populations in the Middle Amur region the genetic diversity increased more than doubled, which is due to the contact zone of two phylogenetic lines in the interfluve between Bira and Bijan. The increased genetic diversity of the Reed vole population is due to the archaic haplotypes preservation at the range edge.
