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 ...

Systematic status and biogeography of the Javan and small Indian mongooses (Herpestidae, Carnivora)

Zoologica Scripta, 2006
The Javan and small Indian mongooses, ranging from the Middle East to South‐east Asia, are considered as two species or as a single species, varying in size and colour from west to east. In order to clarify their systematic status and to define the limits of their ranges, Cytochrome b sequences were obtained from 27 specimens, and localities of 392 ...

Molecular phylogeny of the Herpestidae (Mammalia, Carnivora) with a special emphasis on the Asian Herpestes

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2009
Until now, phylogenetic studies of the mongooses (Carnivora, Herpestidae) have not included an exhaustive sampling of the Asian members of this family. In this study, we used mitochondrial (Cytochrome b and ND2), nuclear (beta-fibrinogen intron 7 and Transthyretin intron 1) sequences from almost all of the recognized mongoose species to produce a well ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...
