Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Hand-Book to the Marsupialia and Monotremata The volume which Mr. Lydekker has written will, I believe, be found to be very useful to the student of Mammalia. The volumes of Gould's "Mammals of Australia" are both rare and costly, and the object of the "Naturalist's Library" is to give, within a handy compass, a scientific, and yet popular, account of the Australian Mammals. For the scientist, Mr. Oldfield Thomas's "Catalogue of the Marsupialia and Monotremata in the collection of the British Museum" is the indispensable compendium of our knowledge of these two Orders up to the year 1888. During the six years which have since elapsed, a few new species have been described, and these have been added in the present work by Mr. Lydekker, whose notes on the fossil species, on which he is one of the first authorities, lend an additional interest to the volume. Especial care has been bestowed upon the plates. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever seen a string bag decorated with jaw bones or bits of fur and wondered what animal they came from? Or seen animals offered for sale, live or dead, cooked or uncooked, in local markets and wondered what they were? This book may help you to identify local fauna that you may see when you travel around New Guinea and the islands of eastern Indonesia. Here are descriptions or all the native marsupial and monotreme animals with an account of their way of life together with suggestions for further reading and notes on their care in captivity.

Book excerpt: Marsupials and monotremes are the dominant mammalian fauna in Australia, Papua New Guinea (PNG) and parts of South America. Monotremes are unique; they possess a range of reptilian and mammalian characteristics. Marsupials are highly diverse and occupy a wide range of ecologically diverse niches and habitats. They have distinct physiologies and their ability to control foetal development and nurture extremely immature young is providing beneficial insights into developmental physiology and human medicine. Insights into marsupial herbivory are benefitting agriculture and climate science. Studies on these mammals that have or will benefit mankind in medicine, agriculture and environmental science have been highlighted. This book covers current knowledge of all aspects of the basic biology and ecology of marsupials and monotremes including evolution and biogeography, genomics, musculoskeletal anatomy, thermal regulation, reproduction, nutrition and feeding strategies, behaviour and social interactions, health and disease, current conservation status, exploitation and utilisation and finally addresses this question: "Are monotremes and marsupials inferior?" The principal audience for this book will be undergraduate students at the tertiary level. Within these chapters, standalone text boxes have been incorporated with examples of the most up-to-date research undertaken to make the book a resource to research students and scientists. Many text boxes highlight the enigmatic nature of marsupials and monotremes and where knowledge of their biology could be of value to the wider community (medicine, agriculture and environment). This compilation emphasises the utility of the information being generated from research with these mammals to the wider scientific community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Marsupialia and Monotremata: Collection of the British Museum (Natural History) This volume, the greater part of which is devoted to the Marsupialia, has been prepared by Mr. O. Thomas, one of the Assistants in this Department, on the plan of the new series of the Zoological Catalogues of the British Museum; it contains descriptions of every species known, with references to all the descriptions and figures previously published, and gives a complete detailed list of the specimens in the Museum Collection. The large series of specimens examined by the author has enabled him to pay special attention to the various degrees of relation which obtain between forms previously described under uniformly binomial terms; in judging of these relationships he has relied on craniological as well as external characters. Beside the Marsupials the Monotremes have been embodied in this volume, this division of Mammals being numerically too small to form a volume by itself. Since the year 1843, when 'The List of Mammalia in the Collection of the British Museum' was prepared by my predecessor, no general account of the Marsupials in that collection has been published, whilst nearly all the other Orders of the Class were made the subjects of continuous study and revision. This seeming neglect was chiefly duo to the appearance of two works, viz. Waterhouse's standard work on these Mammals in 1846, which then, in the course of the following twelve years, was supplemented by Gould's excellent illustrations in his 'Mammals of Australia.' Both these works had a direct relation to the collection of the British Museum, and for many years seemed to fully satisfy the needs of the zoologist.
