| the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the chinese serow, capricornis milneedwardsii (cetartiodactyla: caprinae). | the chinese serow (capricornis milneedwardsii) is a native species distributed in china and southeast asia, and has been listed as one of the class ii national protected species in china. here we first determined and annotated its complete mitochondrial genome. the mito-genome of chinese serow is 16,444 bp in length, consisting of two ribosomal rna (rrna) genes, 22 transfer rna (trna) genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and one control region. the overall base composition is a: 33.5%, t: 26.7%, c: 2 ... | 2016 | 24438312 |
| ethnozoological assessment of animals used by mon traditional medicine vendors at kyaiktiyo, myanmar. | wild animals are widely used in traditional asian medicine but information from myanmar is lacking. we show that a wide range of animals are used at a pilgrimage site, mostly for their rendered fats and oils to be used in mixed concoctions. the majority of species were sold to be used to treat aching joints, muscle ache and skin diseases. | 2017 | 28506903 |
| activity rhythms of coexisting red serow and chinese serow at mt. gaoligong as identified by camera traps. | surveying the activity rhythms of sympatric herbivorous mammals is essential for understanding their niche ecology, especially for how they partition resources and their mechanisms of coexistence. over a five-year period, we conducted infrared camera-trapping to monitor the activity rhythms of coexisting red serow (capricornisrubidus) and chinese serow (c.milneedwardsiimilneedwardsii) in the remote mountainous region of pianma, mt. gaoligong, yunnan, china. cameras captured images of red serow a ... | 2019 | 31810349 |
