A tale of two African mongooses (Carnivora: Herpestidae): differing genetic diversity and geographical structure across a continent

Mammalian Biology, 2022
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 ...

Isolation of thogoto virus (Orthomyxoviridae) from the banded mongoose, Mongos mungo (Herpestidae), in Uganda.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 1999
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 ...

A craniometric comparison of the African and Asian mongooses in the genus Herpestes (Carnivora : Herpestidae)

mamm, 1999
Les mangoustes du genre Herpestes (au sens de Wozencraft 1989) d'Afrique et d'Asie ont ete examinees pour determiner si elles peuvent etre groupees en sous-genres ou genres, tels que Galerella, Herpestes et Urva, d'apres des mensurations craniometriques.

Identification and characterization of 14 polymorphic microsatellite loci for a member of the Herpestidae (Mungos mungo)

Molecular Ecology Notes, 2003
AbstractIn most cooperative breeders, reproductive skew is high. However, in the banded mongoose, Mungos mungo, multiple females reproduce concurrently within a social group, indicating that skew is relatively low in this species. In order to evaluate the degree of reproductive skew in the banded mongoose, we identified 14 polymorphic microsatellite ...

Topography of the chorda tympani nerve and the tensor tympani muscle in carnivores provides a new synapomorphy for Herpestidae (Carnivora, Mammalia)

Journal of Morphology, 2009
AbstractThe topographical relationship of the chorda tympani nerve (chorda tympani) to the tensor tympani muscle in the middle ear of carnivores provides new phylogenetic information. The examination of histological serial sections of 16 carnivore species representing most families revealed two distinct character states concerning the course of the ...

Phylogeography of the white‐tailed mongoose (Herpestidae, Carnivora, Mammalia) based on partial sequences of the mtDNA control region

Journal of Zoology, 2008
AbstractThe phylogeography of the white‐tailed mongooseIchneumia albicaudais examined using phylogenetic analyses based on partial sequences of the mitochondrial control region. The phylogeny is used to: (1) Analyse the phylogeographic pattern ofI. albicauda; (2) discuss the existing delimitation of subspecies; (3) test if the coloration of the tail ...

Evoluce sociality u promyk (\kur{Herpestidae, Carnivora})

2008
The origin, evolutionary polarity and possible causes of sociality in Herpestidae (Carnivora) are not clear. In this study, I compiled data matrix of 48 ontogenetic, reproductive, ecological and behavioural characters of mongooses. I used parsimonny optimization of the character states onto phylogenetic tree for reconstruction of the ancestral ...

Behavioural Cost Minimisation and Minimal Invasive Blood-Sampling in Meerkats (S. suricatta, Herpestidae) [PDF]

open access: possible, 2009
Meerkats (S. suricatta) are social mongooses inhabiting semiarid habitats in southern Africa. They are physiologically desert-adapted, but also utilise a high proportion of behavioural thermoregulation. This study investigated how thermoregulation by behaviour can aid to minimise the physiological costs of thermoregulation. In a first part, behavioural

Hatay İlinde Firavun Faresi Herpestes ichneumon L., 1758 (Mammalia: Carnivora: Herpestidae)

2016
Morphological descriptions and metric measurement of the body of Herpestes ichneumon caught alive during the field surveys under the project with the title “The Striped Hyaena (Hyaena hyaena L.) Ecology in Hatay” have been made. External morphology and measures belonging to the Egyptian Mongoose (Herpestes ichneumon) recorded only in Adana and Aydın so
