Abstract
<strong>Abstract</strong> Blood samples were taken from <em>Mus musculus domesticus</em> (Rutty, 1772) and <em>M. spretus</em> (Lataste, 1883), live-trapped at one month intervals, from September 88 to July 89, in the district of Lisbon, Portugal. The seasonal hematological variations in the commensal species, <em>M. musculus domesticu</em>s, were characterized by an increase in red blood cells, hemoglobin and hematocrit values in winter which reverse during summer. On the contrary, in <em>M. spretus</em> hematocrit values slightly change throughout the year. In both species the albumin/globulin ratio was low in spring and high in autumn. These results were analysed and discussed taking into account environmental factors and physiological conditions of mice. <strong>Riassunto</strong> <strong>Effetti stagionali sull'ematologia e le proteine del plasma di <em>Mus musculus domesticus</em> e <em>M. spretus</em> (Rodentia: Muridae) in Portogallo</strong> - I campioni di sangue provengono da individui di <em>Mus musculus domesticus</em> (Rutty, 1772) e <em>M. spretus</em> (Lataste, 1883). Gli animali sono stati catturati vivi ogni mese, da settembre 88 a luglio 89, nel distretto di Lisbona, in Portogallo. Le variazioni stagionali ematologiche nella specie commensale, <em>M. m. domesticus</em>, sono caratterizzate da un incremento di cellule rosse del sangue, di emoglobina e dei valori di ematocrito in inverno che assumono un andamento opposto in estate. Al contrario, in <em>M. spretus</em> i valori di ematocrito non cambiano sensibilmente durante tutto l'anno. In entrambe le specie il rapporto albumina/globulina risulta basso in primavera e alto in autunno. Questi risultati sono stati analizzati e discussi tenendo conto dei fattori ambientali e le condizioni fisiologiche dei topi.
