| trichostrongylina (nematoda) from malagasy muridae. ii--description of two new species of heligmonina (heligmonellidae) in nesomys rufus and eliurus tanala. | two new species of heligmonellidae from madagascar are described, heligmonina madagascariensis n. sp. in nesomys rufus and heligmonina tanala n. sp. in eliurus tanala. both species belong to the heligmonina species with a pattern of type 1-3-1 for the right lobe of the caudal bursa and 1-4 for the left lobe. in h. madagascariensis, h. dupuisi (desset, 1964) and h. praomyos baylis, 1928, left ray 6 arises before ray 3 from the common trunk to rays 3 to 6 while in h. tanala and the other species, ... | 2002 | 12116858 |
| late quaternary climatic vegetational shifts in an ecological transition zone of northern madagascar: insights from genetic analyses of two endemic rodent species. | the loky-manambato region, located in northern madagascar, is a biotically rich contact zone between different forest biomes. local current forest cover is composed of both humid and dry formations, which show elevational stratification. a recent phylogeographical study of a regional dry forest rodent, eliurus carletoni (subfamily nesomyinae), found genetic evidence of forest contractions between 18 750 and 7500 years bp, which based on extrapolation of the pollen subfossil record, was thought t ... | 2013 | 23621368 |
