Molecular Phylogeny of the Marsupial Genus Planigale (Dasyuridae)

Journal of Mammalogy, 1995
Phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial cytochrome- b gene from all species of the dasyurid marsupial genus Planigale reveals several key differences with morphology-based estimates of relationship. Planigale maculata is the most divergent member of the genus, possibly forming a separate clade with Sminthopsis.

Thermoregulation and metabolism in Planigale maculata (Marsupialia: Dasyuridae)

Journal of Thermal Biology, 1978
Abstract 1. 1.|The standard metabolic rate of Planigale maculata is 38.3 kcal/kg 0.75 ·hr; this rate is 21% below the average metabolic rate of marsupials. 2. 2.|Oxygen consumption rate and T b of resting animals are highly labile, and do not increase in a linear manner with decreasing T a 3.

Body temperatures in the tasmanian devil, Sarcophilus harrisii (Marsupialia: Dasyuridae)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1974
Abstract 1. 1. Retroperitoneally placed radios were used to monitor the body temperature of three Sarcophilus harrisii , maintained in both varying and constant ambient temperatures. 2. 2. The body temperature for each animal varied from night to day, reaching a maximum during the night.

Dentition of Victorian Antechinus species (Marsupialia: Dasyuridae).

Australian Mammalogy, 1986
The dentitions of Victoria's currently recognised subspecies of Antechinus (A. stuartii stuartii, A. flavipes flavipes, A . minimus maritimus and A. swainsonii mimetes) are described and illustrated. Subspecies from other states compared are: A. stuartii adustus, A . f!avipes leucogaster, A. minimus minimus and A. swainsonii swainsonii.

Communal Nesting in Antechinus-Stuartii (Marsupialia, Dasyuridae)

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1991
Unrelated Antechinus stuartii spend a high proportion of their time in mixed-sex communal nests. Communal nesting starts early in the year, after females have weaned their young. It appears to be driven by the need for social interactions and familiarity between all the individuals in an area.

Body temperatures in some Australian mammals. 4. Dasyuridae.

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1965
Body temperatures (TB) were measured in seven species of dasyurid marsupials ranging in size from 11 to 6700 g; these were: Sminthopsis laripinta, Sminthopsis crassicaudata, Antechinus flavipes, Dasycercus cristicauda, Phascogale tapoatafa, Satanellus hallucatus, and Sarcophilus harrisii.

Sminthopsis leucopus (Marsupialia: Dasyuridae) in north Queensland rainforest.

Australian Mammalogy, 1985
Until recently Sminthopsis leucopus (Gray, 1842) was known from temperate southeastern Australia. The collection of two S. leucopus from montane tropical Queensland produces a 2100 km gap between tropical and temperate ranges. Minor cranial and dental differences between northern and southern specimens include smaller bullae, longer molar rows, bulkier
