Small mammal distribution was studied along a grazing gradient in a pastoral landscape of the Tibetan plateaus of Western Sichuan, China. Smaller small mammals (&lt;100 g) were sampled using standard trapping. The link between habitat and both smaller and larger small-mammal distribution on a landscape scale was estimated using landscape transects. The relative density of the  Microtus oeconomus/limnophilus  complex ranged from higher levels in fenced grassland and bushes (i.e., low grazing pressure), to lower levels in habitats with a high grazing pressure, where this species was not trapped.  Ochotona curzoniae ,  O. cansus  and  Cricetulus kamensis  displayed a reverse gradient, with higher relative densities in overgrazed habitats (bare ground). The distribution of  Microtus irene  was restricted to two slope habitats: rocky slopes and  Stellera chamaejasme  grassland.  Microtus leucurus  was only trapped in  Potentilla fruticosa  bushes and in a single grassland type with an intermediate stage of degradation. These results suggest a differential response of the small mammal species in terms of relative density to grazing pressure level.
