  • Systematic Relationships of Five Newly Sequenced Cervid Species
    Systematic relationships of five newly sequenced cervid species Nicola S. Heckeberg1,2,3, Dirk Erpenbeck1,4, Gert Wörheide1,2,4 and Gertrud E. Rössner1,2,4 1 Department for Earth and Environmental Sciences, Palaeontology & Geobiology, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Munich, Germany 2 SNSB-Bayerische Staatssammlung für Paläontologie und Geologie, Munich, Germany 3 Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom 4 GeoBio-Center, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Munich, Germany ABSTRACT Cervid phylogenetics has been puzzling researchers for over 150 years. In recent decades, molecular systematics has provided new input for both the support and revision of the previous results from comparative anatomy but has led to only partial consensus. Despite all of the efforts to reach taxon-wide species sampling over the last two decades, a number of cervid species still lack molecular data because they are difficult to access in the wild. By extracting ancient DNA from museum specimens, in this study, we obtained partial mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequences for Mazama bricenii, Mazama chunyi, Muntiacus atherodes, Pudu mephistophiles, and Rusa marianna, including three holotypes. These new sequences were used to enrich the existing mitochondrial DNA alignments and yielded the most taxonomically complete data set for cervids to date. Phylogenetic analyses provide new insights into the evolutionary history of these five species. However, systematic uncertainties within Muntiacus persist and resolving phylogenetic relationships within Pudu and Mazama remain challenging.

  • Notes on Other Muntjac Species in Laos
    ORYX VOL 32 NO 1 JANUARY 1998 Status and conservation of the giant muntjac Megamuntiacus vuquangensis, and notes on other muntjac species in Laos R. J. Timmins, T. D. Evans, Khamkhoun Khounboline and Chainoi Sisomphone The large-antlered, or giant, muntjac Megamuntiacus vuquangensis was described from Vietnam in 1994 and found concurrently in the Annamite Mountains and nearby hill ranges of central and southern Laos. The northerly and southerly range limits are still unknown. It may occupy a wide range of habitats and is found sympatrically with the common muntjac Muntiacus muntjak. Another muntjac species, the taxonomic affinity of which is as yet undetermined, was recently discovered to occur within its range. The large-antlered muntjac is probably not threatened with extinction in the near future, but in view of its restricted range and threats from habitat degradation and hunting, it should be classified as Vulnerable in the Red Data Book. Its future in Laos is largely dependent on the recently created protected-areas system to maintain large tracts of habitat and reduce hunting pressure. Introduction and is distributed widely in Laos, including throughout the entire known range of the Megamuntiacus vuquangensis, the giant munt- giant muntjac. In addition to these species, a jac, was discovered in Vietnam and Laos in third, smaller species of muntjac, whose ident- 1994.

Förster1 and Andreas Wilting1 Abstract Background: The members of the genus Muntiacus are of particular interest to evolutionary biologists due to their extreme chromosomal rearrangements and the ongoing discussions about the number of living species. Red muntjacs have the largest distribution of all muntjacs and were formerly considered as one species. Karyotype differences led to the provisional split between the Southern Red Muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak) and the Northern Red Muntjac (M. vaginalis), but uncertainties remain as, so far, no phylogenetic study has been conducted. Here, we analysed whole mitochondrial genomes of 59 archival and 16 contemporaneous samples to resolve uncertainties about their taxonomy and used red muntjacs as model for understanding the evolutionary history of other species in Southeast Asia.

GROVES Department of Prehistory and Anthropology, the Australian National University, Canberra and PETER GRUBB Department of Zoology, University of Ghana (present address: c/o Mammal Section, British Museum (Natural History), London) With 4 text-figures and 4 plates ABSTRACT The hypothesis, originated by Kohlbrugge (1895) and supported by Lyon (1911), Van Bemmel (1952) and Hill (1960), that there are two taxonomically distinct muntjac (genus Muntiacus Rafines- que, 1815) on Borneo is supported by studies of abundant skin and skull material. The two are wide- ly sympatric, so must rank as distinct species. One represents the widespread M. muntjak (Zimmer- mann, 1780) of southeast and south Asia, while the other is endemic. The type material of Cervulus pleiharicus Kohlbrugge, 1895 consisted of a skin and frontlet with antlers. As the skin has been lost, the frontlet is designated as lectotype. It represents M. muntjak, as does the type of M. rubidus Lyon, 1911, so that the endemic species of Borneo is without a name. It is hereby designated Muntiacus atherodes. The two species are diagnosed, described fully, and discussed. INTRODUCTION Valid species may go unrecognised once their names are reduced to synonymy. The case we describe below involves both the recognition of a con- troversial species and the resolution of an unfortunate nomenclatural confusion concerning it. The case is all the more exceptional in that it refers to species of deer — among the larger and so supposedly better known groups of mammals.
