Milk composition of white rhinoceros over lactation and comparison with other Perissodactyla.
Zoo Biology, 2021The proximate composition of milk from fifteen free-ranging white rhinoceroses at different lactation stages is reported with detailed analysis of fatty acid composition and minerals. Lactose is the main component at 7.93 ± 0.53%, followed by 0.93 ± 0.19%

Phylogenetics of Perissodactyla and Tests of the Molecular Clock
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2000Two mitochondrial genes, the protein-coding cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (COII) gene and a portion of the 12S rRNA gene, were used for phylogenetic investigation of the mammalian order Perissodactyla. The primary objective of the study was to utilize the extensive fossil record of perissodactyls for calibrating molecular clocks and comparing ...

Aprotodon is an extinct genus of the family Rhinocerotidae with a peculiar morphology that is mainly embodied in the wide mandibular symphysis and a pair of prominent second low incisors. The genus once lived on the vast grasslands of Asia, from Pakistan,

Tapirus pinchaque (Perissodactyla: Tapiridae)
Mammalian Species, 2010Abstract Tapirus pinchaque (Roulin, 1829), the mountain tapir, is considered the smallest and least specialized of the 4 species of Tapirus. It is restricted to parts of temperate areas from Colombia and Ecuador to extreme northwestern Peru. It is a foliage browser that generally inhabits moist habitats that facilitate bathing; however, they are ...

Molarization of the premolars in the Perissodactyla.
Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London, 1952SUMMARY. Molarization of the premolars in perissodactyls is reviewed in the light of that of the milk‐molars. The premolar patterns are closely related to those of the milk‐molars, the closest resemblance being shown, in most forms, to the milk‐molar that the premolar replaces. In a few Eocene forms, however, the premolars seem rather to resemble milk‐

Commonality in the vocalizations of order Perissodactyla
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2006As a follow-on to the human genome project, it has been suggested that the next major gene sequencing program may be for the horse as a representative of the relatively small order Perrissodactyla. This order consists of three families; Equidae (equines), Tapiridae (tapirs), and Rhinocerotidae (rhinos), for a total of 17 species.

The entotympanic of Equus caballus (Perissodactyla, Mammalia)
Mammalian Biology, 2013In the majority of extant placental mammals the bulla tympanica is composed of two skeletal elements, the entotympanic and the ectotympanic. Former studies revealed that the presence of an entotympanic in the bulla tympanica of extant Perissodactyla is restricted to Rhinocerotidae.
