  • Comparative Ecomorphology and Biogeography of Herpestidae and Viverridae (Carnivora) in Africa and Asia
    Comparative Ecomorphology and Biogeography of Herpestidae and Viverridae (Carnivora) in Africa and Asia Gina D. Wesley-Hunt1, Reihaneh Dehghani2,3 and Lars Werdelin3 1Biology Department, Montgomery College, 51 Mannakee St. Rockville, Md. 20850, USA; 2Department of Zoology, Stockholm University, SE-106 91, Stockholm, Sweden; 3Department of Palaeozoology, Swedish Museum of Natural History, Box 50007, SE-104 05, Stockholm, Sweden INTRODUCTION Ecological morphology (ecomorphology) is a powerful tool for exploring diversity, ecology and evolution in concert (Wainwright, 1994, and references therein). Alpha taxonomy and diversity measures based on taxon counting are the most commonly used tools for understanding long-term evolutionary patterns and provide the foundation for all other biological studies above the organismal level. However, this provides insight into only a single dimension of a multidimensional system. As a complement, ecomorphology allows us to describe the diversification and evolution of organisms in terms of their morphology and ecological role. This is accomplished by using quantitative and semi-quantitative characterization of features of organisms that are important, for example, in niche partitioning or resource utilization. In this context, diversity is commonly referred to as disparity (Foote, 1993). The process of speciation, for example, can be better understood and hypotheses more rigorously tested, if it can be quantitatively demonstrated whether a new species looks very similar to the original taxon or whether its morphology has changed in a specific direction. For example, if a new species of herbivore evolves with increased grinding area in the cheek dentition, it can either occupy the same area of morphospace as previously existing species, suggesting increased resource competition, or it can occupy an area of morphospace that had previously been empty, suggesting evolution into a new niche.

  • 3.4 ORDER CARNIVORA Bowdich, 1821
    3.4 ORDER CARNIVORA Bowdich, 1821 3.4.1 Family Ursidae Fischer, 1817 There are eight species of bears in the world: - American Black Bear Ursus americanus - Brown Bear Ursus arctos - Polar Bear Ursus maritimus - Sloth Bear Melursus ursinus - Spectacled Bear Tremarctos ornatus - Giant Panda Ailuropoda melanoleuca - Asiatic Black Bear Ursus thibetanus - Malayan Sun Bear Helarctos malayanus The last two species are the only members of the family Ursidae known in Southeast Asia. They differ from each other by their furs and body sizes and both are threatened with extinction (Nowak, 1991; Corbet & Hill 1992). Bears have relatively undeveloped carnassial teeth; narrow premolars, crushing molars with flat crowns and large robust canines. 127 3.4.1.1 Subfamily Ursinae Fischer, 1817, Plate 3(A1 to B3) As mentioned above, two genera and two species represent the subfamily Ursinae in Southeast Asia, namely: - Malayan Sun Bear (Figure 3.8, A), Ursus/Helarctos malayanus (Raffles, 1821) with the scientific name Ursu and synonym Helarctos is distributed in the south west of China, Assam, Myanmar, Vietnam, Peninsular Malaysia, to the islands of Sumatra and Borneo. It is the smallest of all bears found in the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia. - Asiatic Black Bear (Figure 3.8, B), Ursus thibetanus Cuvier, 1823 is mainly localized in the Himalayas, Afghanistan to southern China, Myanmar, northern Thailand and Indochina. It has several alternative names including Asiatic Black Bear, Himalayan Black Bear, Moon Bear and inhabits mountain forests.

  • Characteristics of the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Monotypic Genus Arctictis (Family: Viverridae) and Its Phylogenetic Implications
    Characteristics of the complete mitochondrial genome of the monotypic genus Arctictis (Family: Viverridae) and its phylogenetic implications Siuli Mitra1,*, Vaishnavi Kunteepuram1,*, Klaus-Peter Koepfli2, Neha Mehra1, Wajeeda Tabasum1, Ara Sreenivas1 and Ajay Gaur1 1 Laboratory for Conservation of Endangered Species (LaCONES), CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology, Hyderabad, Telangana, India 2 Center for Species Survival, Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute, Washington, D.C., USA * These authors contributed equally to this work. ABSTRACT The binturong (Arctictis binturong) is classified as a member of the subfamily Para- doxurinae within the family Viverridae (Carnivora: Mammalia) and comprises nine subspecies spread across Southern and Southeast Asia. Here, we describe the complete mitochondrial genome of the Indian subspecies A. b. albifrons using next-generation sequencing methods. The total length of the A. b. albifrons mitogenome was 16,642 bp. Phylogenetic analyses based on 13 mitochondrial protein-coding genes placed the binturong as a sister taxon to Paguma larvata within the Paradoxurinae and supported the clustering of Genettinae and Viverrinae and the monophyly of Viverridae and six other families of feliforms, consistent with previous studies. Divergence time estimates suggest that the Viverridae diversified during the Miocene (22.62 Mya: 95% CI [20.78– 24.54] Mya) and that Arctictis and Paguma split 12.57 Mya (95% CI [8.66–15.67] Mya). Further molecular studies are required to test the distinctiveness and

  • Civettictis Civetta – African Civet
    Civettictis civetta – African Civet continued to include it in Viverra. Although several subspecies have been recorded, their validity remains questionable (Rosevear 1974; Coetzee 1977; Meester et al. 1986). Assessment Rationale The African Civet is listed as Least Concern as it is fairly common within the assessment region, inhabits a variety of habitats and vegetation types, and is present in numerous protected areas (including Kruger National Park). Camera-trapping studies suggest that there are healthy populations in the mountainous parts of Alastair Kilpin Limpopo’s Waterberg, Soutpansberg, and Alldays areas, as well as the Greater Lydenburg area of Mpumalanga. However, the species may be undergoing some localised Regional Red List status (2016) Least Concern declines due to trophy hunting and accidental persecution National Red List status (2004) Least Concern (for example, poisoning that targets larger carnivores). Furthermore, the increased use of predator-proof fencing Reasons for change No change in the growing game farming industry in South Africa can Global Red List status (2015) Least Concern limit movement of African Civets. The expansion of informal settlements has also increased snaring incidents, TOPS listing (NEMBA) (2007) None since it seems that civets are highly prone to snares due CITES listing (1978) Appendix III to their regular use of footpaths.

On 14 occasions between 2012 and 2015, one or two juveniles were Cambodia Program, Phnom photographed in the early to mid-dry season (when camera-trap effort was Penh, Cambodia. concentrated) in northern Cambodia. These juveniles are likely to have been born 3. Forestry Administration, Ministry around the change from the rainy to dry season. All camera-trap stations that of Agriculture, Forestry and photographed young Large-spotted Civet were within 50 m of a water source. At one camera-trap station, foraging and regular visits by young and adult were recorded Fisheries, Royal Government of Cambodia around a very shallow pool; the civets were probably preying on leaf-litter arthropods. Further research could clarify the dependency of Large-spotted Civet on waterholes (locally called trapeangs) during the dry season in northern Cambodia, but it is clear that mitigating threats at these trapeangs, particularly the use of snares and poison, is Correspondence: very likely to be a priority for Large-spotted Civet conservation within this landscape.
