The mtDNA control region variability of Microtus rossiaemeridionalis (Rodentia, Arvicolini) from two invasive populations of the Russian Far East was studied. The results demonstrated a lower genetic diversity in the East European vole population from Sovetskaya Gavan than in the population from the city of Khabarovsk. Wright’s F statistic did not reveal any heterogeneity in the samples from these populations. It was suggested that the discovered haplotypes belong to the EU subclade of the European lineage.
