In the well diversified Biosphere Reserve of Mapimi, the rich rodent fauna is composed of 11 species, of which 5 granivorous Heteromyids form the most abundant group (70% of the density population). The spatial distribution of the rodent fauna in smaller communities is dependent upon habitat and trophic diversities. The role played by trophic competition is discussed.
