摘要：

Faunal elements are groups of species with similar contemporary distributional patterns and may represent an historical association. It is hypothesized that members of a faunal element will respond similarly to environmental conditions. Since the mid-1960s the central plains has experienced cool, mesic (cryomesic) conditions. The distributional limits of members of the Boreal faunal element in this region - Sorex cinereus, Microtus pennsylvanicus, Zapus hudsonius, and Mustela nivalis - expanded southward since onset of cryomesic conditions.
