The false zokor (Myospalax aspalax) is a species of rodent in the family Spalacidae. It is found in eastern Khentei and eastern Khingan in Mongolia and in the Onon River basin in Russia.
The Chinese zokor (Eospalax fontanierii) is a species of rodent in the family Spalacidae.[2] It is endemic to China, ranging from Qinghai Province eastwards to Beijing in steppe and alpine grasslands. Henri Milne-Edwards first described it in 1867. Eradication programs in the 1990s in Qinghai Province resulted in a population decline to less than a third of the former population. It is considered common and has been assessed as Least Concern by IUCN.[1]
