Hrčci

Posted by
Hrčci (Cricetinae) su glodavci aktivni pretežno u sumrak. To je potporodica porodice Cricetidae iz reda glodavaca. U prirodiEurope živi jedino poljski, ili europski hrčak. Kao kućne životinje drže se pretežno zlatni hrčci i različite druge patuljaste vrste.
Rasprostranjeni su u Europi i Aziji. Imaju relativno malo (u odnosu na druge glodavce) vrsta, poznato je samo 18 vrsta svrstanih u sedam rodova. Najveći dio vrsta živi u stepama i polupustinjama Mongolije.
Neke sistematike ih ne razvrstavaju kao samostalnu potporodicu, nego ju smatraju tribusom potporodice Arvicolinae. Suprotno tome, ponekad se i rod Calomyscus svrstava u ovu grupu, međutim, oni nisu pravi hrčci.
Naziv "patuljasti hrčak" nije oznaka za neku jedinstvenu grupu unutar skupine hrčaka.
