Karyotypes of four rats (Rodentia: Muridae) from Sulawesi (Celebes), Indonesia.

Karyotypes and information pertinent to genetic mapping of small mammals in remote areas of Southeast Asia are practically nonexistent. The diverse island complex of the Indo-Australian archipelago offers a unique situation to study the interrelationships of the taxonomically confused order Rodentia. Yosida (1969, 1971, 1973) reported karyotypes of two species of rodents from Makassar, located ...

(Rodentia: Muridae) from Peninsular Malaysia

There are 25 species of rats and mice (familly Muridae) in peninsular Malaysia (Medway 1978). Of these the karyotypes of 19 species have been described (Yong 1968, 1969 and 1973). The chromosomes of the other 6 species found in this country have, however, not been reported. Of these 6 species, the chromosomes of Hapalomys and Pithecheir have also not been reported from other countries. The pres...

Karyotypes of three rat species (Mammalia: Rodentia: Muridae) from Hainan Island, China, and the valid specific status of Niviventer lotipes.

The karyotypes of three rat species from Hainan Island, China, were examined. Niviventer fulvescens (Gray, 1847) had 2n=46 and FN=64, similar to the karyotypes reported for N. fulvescens from Southeast Asia, while Niviventer lotipes () had 2n=52 and FN=66, which is distinct from the known karyotypes of other Niviventer species. Niviventer lotipes was recently considered conspecific with N. tena...

Syphacia (Syphacia) maxomyos sp. n. (Nematoda: Oxyuridae) from Maxomys spp. (Rodentia: Muridae) from Sulawesi and Sumatra, Indonesia

The present report describes Syphacia (Syphacia) maxomyos sp. n. (Nematoda: Oxyuridae) from two species of spiny rats, Maxomys musschenbroekii from Sulawesi and M. whiteheadi from Sumatra. It is characterized by a cephalic plate extending laterally with dorsoventral constriction and stumpy eggs with an operculum rim reaching pole. It is readily distinguishable by the former feature from all of ...

Mus Terricolor (rodentia, Muridae) Complex: Chromosomal Polymorphism

Mus terricolor chromosomal types I, II, III from different places of India were cytogenetically analyzed. Chromosome types II and III showed polymorphic pericentric inversions of autosomes 2 and 5 present in homozygous or heterozygous condition in the populations. Moreover, besides fixed heterochromatic arms on autosomes 1, 3, and 6; the autosome 8 in terricolor type III showed a large heteroch...
