An annotated checklist of the insectivores (Mammalia, Eulipotyphla) of Laos
An annotated checklist of the insectivorous mammals (order Eulipotyphla) of Laos is presented for the first time. The checklist is based on an extensive literature review and an examination of available museum specimens from world collections. Confirmed fauna of eulipotyphlans includes 11 species from 7 genera and 3 families.

Abstract The morphology and histological structure of two adult Brandt’s hedgehog, Paraechinus hypomelas, (Brandt, 1836) tongue were examined by light and scanning electron microscopy. On the dorsal surface of the tongue, three types of papillae were observed: filiform, fungiform and vallate papillae.

Eulipotyphla (Mammalia) aus Cheile Turzii (Rumänien)
The first part of this diploma thesis deals with the description of the frequently discussed order of Eulipotyphla. At the beginning, the general physical characteristics of this order are illustrated and the four associated families (Solenodontidae, Erinaceidae, Soricidae and Talpidae) and insectivores of other orders are characterized.
