Description

The objective of this study was to provide important information about genetic variation in populations of the Delmarva Fox Squirrel in the context of a more general and hence more informative survey of electrophoretic variation in other populations of fox squirrels. This report compares genetic variation within and among a total of 19 populations of fox squirrels using data from horizontal starchgel electrophoresis. The focus was populations of Delmarva fox squirrels from the Eastern Shore of Maryland and Virginia Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge and Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge as well as other populations of eastern fox squirrels from Maryland, Virginia, and Georgia.
