ABSTRACT. Forty-one of the 57 species of mammals know to occur in Indiana were documented at Willow Slough during these studies. The western harvest mouse (Reithrodontomys megalotis), not previously known from the state, apparently entered Indiana from Illinois at or near Willow Slough in 1969. Species not previously collected in Newton County were the least shrew (Cryptotis parva), the woodland vole (Microtus pinetorum), and the little brown myotis (Myotis lucifugus).
