Abstract: 80% of the rodents in Fujian and Taiwan, two coasts of Taiwan Straits, are same species, which had existed before the Taiwan Straits formed. It shows that the rodents in two coasts of Taiwam Straits came from same source at ancient time.Because of the species evolution and the natutal environental characteristics: some of its special species, such as Callosiurus caniceps, Chiropodemis glirodes and Microtus kikuchli, appear in Taiwan. Number of the species dwelled on trees is more in Taiwan than in Fujian. These species are valuable treasure in Chinese animal storage.Most of the species composition and ecosystem appear simillar between Taiwan and Fujian, but some difference exist also. It will be very valuable for the biologists in two coasts of Taiwan Straits to make a cooperated investigation on rodents species distribution, ecology and the diseases transmitted by rodents etc.
