Based on a study of dental characteristics of the water vole genus Arvicola from 7 regions of Azerbaijan, captured in 1926–1965 and stored in the collection of the Institute of Zoology, Ministry of Science and Education of Azerbaijan, the range of variability of the tooth enamel differentiation index SDQ is determined. The index is calculated as the ratio of the thickness of leading to trailing cutting edges of the enamel prisms of the cheek tooth crowns. SDQ serves as a criterion for identifying chronospecies of Arvicola in the fossil record, and it has recently been proposed for diagnosing modern Eurasian and Persian water voles. As a result of measuring the SDQ index in 55 individuals from the Shemakha, Saatli, Imishli, Goygol (= Khanlar), Ordubad, and Adjikabul regions, the water voles are shown to have a plesiomorphic type of enamel differentiation, in which the SDQ index values are greater than 100. In the specimens under consideration, the values of SDQ indices assessed for the first lower and second upper teeth vary from 100 to 178. In contrast to the dimensional characteristics of the teeth, the index values do not demonstrate directional changes in postnatal development and retain the plesiomorphic pattern of dental enamel differentiation in all age classes distinguished by the degree of skull maturity. The results obtained confirm the difference in the dental characteristics of the water voles occurring in Azerbaijan from the Eurasian A. amphibius and the proximity to the west Asian water voles currently considered as an independent species or species group, A. persicus (Persian water vole). Revision of data on differential chromosome staining and an analysis of molecular markers, both mitochondrial and nuclear, are necessary to answer the question concerning the taxonomic status of water voles in Azerbaijan and other regions of Western Asia, where water voles with a negative type of differentiation of tooth enamel occur. Until a final decision is made on the taxonomic status, composition and distribution of the Persian water vole, the water voles of Azerbaijan with a plesiomorphic type of tooth enamel differentiation are proposed to be referred to as Arvicola cf. persicus.
