Late Miocene Soricidae (Mammalia) Fauna from Tardosbánya (Western Hungary)
Hantkeniana 2, 103-125 (1998) Budapest Late Miocene Soricidae (Mammalia) fauna from Tardosbánya (Western Hungary) Lukács Gy. MÉszÁRos Eötvös Loránd University, Department ofPalaeontology H-I083 Budapest, Ludovika tér 2, Hungary (Wi th 5 figures, 6 tables and 4 plates) The Soricidae (Mamrnalia, Insectivora) elements of the rich and well preserved fossil vertebrate fauna from Tardosbánya limestone quarry (Western Hungary, Gerecse Mountains) are presented. Five species could have been identified from the material: Amblycoptus oligodon KORMOS 1926, Crusafontina konnosi (BACHMAYER& WILSON, 1970), Blarinella dubia (BACHMAYERand WILSON, 1970), Episoricuius gibberodon (PETÉNYI, 1864) and Paenelimnoecus repenningi (BACHMAYER & WILSON, 1970). The occurrence of Crusafantina, B. dubia and P. repenningi indicates that the age of the sarnple is Late Miocene. The morphometrical studies on C. konnosi, and the morphology and the low relative frequency of A. oligodon suggest that the fauna is correlative with the Turolian MN 12 Zone. The occurrence of A. oligodon, C. konnosi and E. gibberodon indicates well watered, forested environment. Introduction The Late Miocene vertebrate fauna from Tardosbánya quarry was colleeted by D. JÁNOSSY Locality (Hungarian Natural History Museum) in 1975. He gave a prelinúnary faunal list of the sample (1981, Tardosbánya is situated at the northern margin only in manuscript form) and deposited the material of the Transdanubian Central Range (Western in the Geological Museum of Hungary (GMH) (in Hungary), about 10 km north from Tatabánya (see the Geological Institute of Hungary). JÁNOSSYlisted Fig. 1). The remains have been found in a sediment- the following soricids: filled fossil shaft in the Jurassic limestone of the Gerecse Mountains, excavated by exploitation in the - "Petenyia" "red marble" quarry near Tardosbánya. -

Rusin, M., Ghazaryan, A., Hayrapetyan, T., Papov, G., Martynov, A. — Armenian birch mouse is one of the least known species of mammals of Eurasia. It was described as a separate species based on three specimen trapped in 1986. From that time no other Sicista was found in Armenia. In 2015 we surveyed Central and Northern Armenia and established that probably population from the type locality is lost. But we found another population on Sevan Pass. Due to our observations the species meets Critically Endangered B2a+bIV category of the IUCN Red List. Key words: Sicista, Caucasus, Armenia, subalpine meadows, extinction, Critically Endangered. Introduction Armenian birch mouse, Sicista armenica Sokolov and Baskevich, 1988, is one of the sibling species in the S. caucasica group, which are S. caucasica s. str., S. kluchorica, S. kazbegica and S. armenica. All of these species were described based on diff erent chromosomal numbers in 1980th: S. caucasica 2n = 32, nF = 48; S. kluchorica 2n = 24, nF = 44; S. kazbegica 2n = 40–42, nF = 50–52; S. -

BEFORE THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR Petition to List the Preble’s Meadow Jumping Mouse (Zapus hudsonius preblei) as a Distinct Population Segment under the Endangered Species Act November 9, 2017 Petitioners: Center for Biological Diversity Rocky Mountain Wild Acknowledgment: Conservation Intern Shane O’Neal substantially contributed to drafting of this petition. November 9, 2017 Mr. Ryan Zinke CC: Ms. Noreen Walsh Secretary of the Interior Mountain-Prairie Regional Director Department of the Interior U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 18th and C Street, N.W. 134 Union Boulevard, Suite 650 Washington, D.C. 20240 Lakewood, CO 80228 [email protected] Dear Mr. Zinke, Pursuant to Section 4(b) of the Endangered Species Act (“ESA”), 16 U.S.C. §1533(b), Section 553(3) of the Administrative Procedures Act, 5 U.S.C. § 553(e), and 50 C.F.R. §424.14(a), the Center for Biological Diversity and Rocky Mountain Wild hereby formally petitions the Secretary of the Interior, through the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (“FWS”, “the Service”) to list the Preble’s meadow jumping mouse (Zapus hudsonius preblei) as a distinct population segment. Although the Preble’s meadow jumping mouse is already currently listed as a subspecies, this petition is necessary because of a petition seeking to de-list the Preble’s meadow jumping mouse (“jumping mouse”, “Preble’s”), filed by the Pacific Legal Foundation on behalf of their clients (PLF 2017), arguing that the jumping mouse no longer qualifies as a subspecies. Should FWS find this petition warrants further consideration (e.g. a positive 90-day finding), we are submitting this petition to ensure that the agency simultaneously considers listing the Preble’s as a distinct population segment of the meadow jumping mouse. -

BMC Genomics 2014, 15:32 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/15/32 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Transcriptome sequencing and phylogenomic resolution within Spalacidae (Rodentia) Gong-Hua Lin1, Kun Wang2, Xiao-Gong Deng1,3, Eviatar Nevo4, Fang Zhao1, Jian-Ping Su1, Song-Chang Guo1, Tong-Zuo Zhang1* and Huabin Zhao5* Abstract Background: Subterranean mammals have been of great interest for evolutionary biologists because of their highly specialized traits for the life underground. Owing to the convergence of morphological traits and the incongruence of molecular evidence, the phylogenetic relationships among three subfamilies Myospalacinae (zokors), Spalacinae (blind mole rats) and Rhizomyinae (bamboo rats) within the family Spalacidae remain unresolved. Here, we performed de novo transcriptome sequencing of four RNA-seq libraries prepared from brain and liver tissues of a plateau zokor (Eospalax baileyi) and a hoary bamboo rat (Rhizomys pruinosus), and analyzed the transcriptome sequences alongside a published transcriptome of the Middle East blind mole rat (Spalax galili). We characterize the transcriptome assemblies of the two spalacids, and recover the phylogeny of the three subfamilies using a phylogenomic approach. Results: Approximately 50.3 million clean reads from the zokor and 140.8 million clean reads from the bamboo ratwere generated by Illumina paired-end RNA-seq technology. All clean reads were assembled into 138,872 (the zokor) and 157,167 (the bamboo rat) unigenes, which were annotated by the public databases: the Swiss-prot, Trembl, NCBI non-redundant protein (NR), NCBI nucleotide sequence (NT), Gene Ontology (GO), Cluster of Orthologous Groups (COG), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). -

Based on phylogenetic analyses of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (1143bp) obtained from 23 specimens (eight spe- cies) of Oriental voles collected from this area, together with nucleotide sequences from six specimens (two species) of Japanese red- backed voles (Eothenomys andersoni and Eothenomys smithii) and five species of the closely related genus Clethrionomys, we revised the systematic status of Eothenomys. We also tested if vicariance could explain the observed high species diversity in this area by correlating estimated divergence times to species distribution patterns and corresponding paleo-geographic events. -

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Knowledge of the Soricidae occurring in Vietnam has recently expanded with the discovery of several species previously unknown to science. Here we describe a new species of white-toothed shrew belonging to the genus Crocidura from lowland areas in southern Vietnam and from a river valley in north-eastern Cambodia. This small to medium sized species is diagnosed on the basis of external features, cranial proportions and morphology of the last upper and lower molars. Comparisons are made with other species of Crocidura known to occur in Vietnam and the biogeography of the regions where the new species has been found, is briefly discussed. Key words: white-toothed shrew, Vietnam, Cambodia Introduction Knowledge of the soricid fauna of South-East Asia and particularly that of Vietnam is still poorly understood, while that of Cambodia is virtually unknown (Jenkins, 1982; Heaney & Timm, 1983; Jenkins & Smith, 1995; Motokawa et al., 2005; Jenkins et al., 2009). -

DNA sequence data combined with a multivariate analysis of cranial characters, has revealed a high cryptic diversity of the group. An analysis of mitochondrial cytochrome b gene and five nuclear genes has revealed two deeply divergent clades: the western one (E. klossi + E. malayana + E. longirostris from Sichuan + Euroscaptor spp. from northern Vietnam and Yunnan, China), and the eastern one (E. parvidens s.l. + E. subanura). The pattern of genetic variation in the genus Euroscaptor discovered in the present study provides support for the existence of several cryptic lineages that could be treated as distinct species based on their genetic and morphological distinctness and geographical distribution. -
An Evolutionary View on the Japanese Talpids Based on Nucleotide Sequences
Mammal Study 30: S19–S24 (2005) © the Mammalogical Society of Japan An evolutionary view on the Japanese talpids based on nucleotide sequences Akio Shinohara1,*, Kevin L. Campbell2 and Hitoshi Suzuki3 1 Department of Bio-resources, Division of Biotechnology, Frontier Science Research Center, University of Miyazaki, Miyazaki 889-1692, Japan 2 Department of Zoology, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3T 2N2, Canada 3 Graduate School of Environmental Earth Science, Hokkaido University, Hokkaido 060-0810, Japan Abstract. Japanese talpid moles exhibit a remarkable degree of species richness and geographic complexity, and as such, have attracted much research interest by morphologists, cytogeneticists, and molecular phylogeneticists. However, a consensus hypothesis pertaining to the evolutionary history and biogeography of this group remains elusive. Recent phylogenetic studies utilizing nucleotide sequences have provided reasonably consistent branching patterns for Japanese talpids, but have generally suffered from a lack of closely related South-East Asian species for sound biogeographic interpretations. As an initial step in achieving this goal, we constructed phylogenetic trees using publicly accessible mitochondrial and nuclear sequences from seven Japanese taxa, and those of related insular and continental species for which nucleotide data is available. The resultant trees support the view that four lineages (Euroscaptor mizura, Mogera tokuade species group [M. tokudae and M. etigo], M. imaizumii, and M. wogura) migrated separately, and in this order, from the continental Asian mainland to Japan. The close relationship of M. tokudae and M. etigo suggests these lineages diverged recently through a vicariant event between Sado Island and Echigo plain. The origin of the two endemic lineages of Japanese shrew-moles, Urotrichus talpoides and Dymecodon pilirostris, remains ambiguous.
