Several different types of mouse are used in laboratory research (e.g., the spiny mouse, the deer mouse, etc.) but the most commonly used mouse is Mus musculus, the house mouse. This is the typical white lab mouse envisioned by most. The naming system for particular inbred or genetically modified mice is complex, but the genus and species are typically the same.
