Description
Marmota (Marmota) sibirica Radde 1862
Marmota (Marmota) sibirica Radde 1862, Reise in den Suden von Ost-Sibierien: 159.
Type Locality: "Kulusutai, near Lake Torei-Nor, southeast Transbaikal" [Chitinsk Obl., Russia].
Vernacular Names: Tarbagan Marmot.
Subspecies::
Subspecies Marmota (Marmota) sibirica subsp. sibirica Radde 1862
Subspecies Marmota (Marmota) sibirica subsp. caliginosus Bannikov and Skalon 1949
Distribution: SW Siberia, Tuva, Transbaikalia (Russia); N and W Mongolia; Heilungjiang and Inner Mongolia (China).
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Subgenus Marmota (Steppan et al., 1999). Placed (with baibacina) in bobak (Ellerman and Morrison-Scott, 1951:515; Corbet, 1978 c:81). Gromov et al. (1965) and Zimina (1978) provided evidence of specific distinctness and included caliginosus in this species; see comment under baibacina and sibirica. Steppan et al. (1999) found sibirica and himalayana to be sister species. Nikol'skii (1974) and Smirin et al. (1985) analyzed contact between baibacina and sibirica in Tuva and the Mongolian Altai; Sokolov and Orlov (1980:329) also indicated sympatry in NW Mongolia; limited hybridization is possible.
