Histological characterisation of the skin of the Paraechinus hypomelas, Brandt, 1836 (Erinaceidae: Eulipotyphla)

Folia Morphologica, 2020
The current study represents the first description of the histological characterisations of the normal skin of Brandt's hedgehog (paraechinus hypomelas).Skin samples were collected from abdomen, back, nostril and cloacal regions.The skin consisted of 3 layers including epidermis, dermis and hypodermis.

Predicting Mammal Species Suitable for Chagas Disease Spread Using a Machine‐Learning Framework

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Chagas disease is maintained in wildlife by Trypanosoma cruzi cycling among many mammal species, but we still do not know the full range of potential hosts. Using machine learning and ecological/behavioral traits, we found that kissing bugs overlap with 573 mammal species and tend to feed on mammals that are den‐dwelling, medium‐to‐large in size, and ...

More of the Same Makes a Difference: Comparative Anatomy and Molecular Makeup of Tenrec and Hedgehog Intestines

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Tenrecs and hedgehogs have gastrointestinal tracts of comparable morphology, yet with marked differences in length. Among mammals, intestinal length is correlated with diet; however, these species share a common trophic niche. The length differences are accounted for by an expansion of the small intestine in the European hedgehog.

Discovery of a new mammal species (Soricidae: Eulipotyphla) from Narcondam volcanic island, India

Scientific Reports, 2021
We discovered a new Crocidura species of shrew (Soricidae: Eulipotyphla) from Narcondam Island, India by using both morphological and molecular approaches. The new species, Crocidura narcondamica sp. nov. is of medium size (head and body lengths) and has

Recombination Map of the Common Shrew,Sorex araneus(Eulipotyphla, Mammalia) [PDF]

Genetics, 2008
AbstractThe Eurasian common shrew (Sorex araneus L.) is characterized by spectacular chromosomal variation, both autosomal variation of the Robertsonian type and an XX/XY1Y2 system of sex determination. It is an important mammalian model of chromosomal and genome evolution as it is one of the few species with a complete genome sequence.

Non-target small mammal communities in invertebrate pitfall traps: effects of season, habitat, and elevation

Folia Oecologica
Despite considerable endeavours of scientists to avoid it, non-target species are frequently trapped for ecological and conservation research. Nevertheless, these data can provide valuable insights into how ecosystems function. Small mammals not targeted
