The caloric equivalent of the body dry mass and biomass of the shrew (S. araneus, S. minutus, and N. jodiens) shows statistically significant changes in the annual cycle and is higher in winter and early spring than in summer and early au tumn. For ecological pu r poses it is suggested to use various caloric values of the shrew biomass in relation to the period of studies. The caloric value of 1 g of biomass of Soricidae depends mainly on the degree of hydration of their tissues and is independent of changes in the body fa t content. The amount of water in the shrew body is subjected to high, statistically significant variations in the annual cycle. Both the winter depression and spring rise in the body weight of these mammals are result mainly f rom changes in the tissue hydration. The fa t content in the body of Sori• cidae is smaller than in rodents. Fluctuations in the amount of f a t are result f rom the accumulation and utilization of the energy reserves present in BAT. All the studied indices showed no statistically significant differences related to the sex of animals.
