Resumo

A mtDNA based study of the population genetics of moles recently captured in France allowed us to discover a new species, Talpa aquitania nov. sp. We are giving here a preliminary description of the new species. Its distribution covers an area lying south and west of the course of the Loire river in France and beyond the Pyrenees, a part of Northern Spain.
