    • 2018, Tim Flannery, Europe: The First 100 Million Years, Penguin, published 2019, page 249:
      Today, among all of the Mediterranean's unique island mammals, there is a single survivor—the Cypriot mouse (Mus cypriacus)—a species so obscure and small that it was not even recognised as being distinct from the house mouse until 2006.
