Mungotictis decemlineata lineata (Carnivora: Herpestidae), a mysterious Malagasy mongoose
Journal of Natural History, 2000The Malagasy narrow-striped mongoose Mungotictis decemlineata has two currently recognized subspecies: M. d. decemlineata and M. d. lineata. Recent literature indicates that the latter is very rare, occurring in the Toliara region of southwestern Madagascar, however there are no original locality data available for the sole specimen of this taxon, and ...

The earliest modern mongoose (Carnivora, Herpestidae) from Africa (late Miocene of Chad)
Naturwissenschaften, 2005We report on the earliest modern mongooses of Africa, from the late Miocene (ca. 7 Ma) of the hominid locality TM 266, Toros-Menalla, Chad. The material is based on fragmentary dentitions of three individuals. The main diagnostic feature of the Chadian species is the great development of the shear in the carnassials, which distinguishes the Chadian ...

Procyonidae, Viverridae, Hyenidae, Herpestidae, Eupleridae, and Prionodontidae
, 2018 This chapter covers the diseases and pathology of multiple taxonomic groups within the order Carnivora including Procyonidae several of the Feliformia carnivores. The overwhelming majority of knowledge about disease pathogenesis for these species is biased toward raccoons and concern for disease spread to humans and companion animals.

Phylogeographies of African mammals reveal patterns that correlate with Pleistocene environmental fluctuations and geographical barriers, which may affect species differently according to their habitat preferences and dispersal capabilities. The marsh mongoose Atilax paludinosus, a widely distributed African carnivoran, is a good model to compare with ...

Banded together: a review of the factors favouring group living in a social carnivore, the banded mongoose Mungos mungo (Carnivora: Herpestidae) [PDF]
Mammalia, 2007 carnivores; egalitarianism; group living;mongooses; sociality.As most species of the order Carnivora are solitary (Gitt-leman 1989), there is ongoing debate over the evolutionand maintenance of sociality in carnivores. It has beenhypothesised that five factors reduce the costs and/orincrease the benefits of tolerating conspecifics (CreelandMacdonald ...

Small wild vertebrates were trapped during an investigation into possible vertebrate reservoirs of o'nyong-nyong (ONN) fever virus in Uganda in 1997. Antibody neutralization test results and virus isolation attempts were negative for ONN virus, confirming the work of earlier investigators, who also failed to find evidence for a nonhuman ONN virus ...
