Excerpt: ... from the Proceedings Of The Zoological Society Of London, 1904, vol. i. Published June 9, 1904. On a Collection of Mammals from British Namaqualand, presented to the National Museum by Mr. C. D. Rudd. By Oldfield Thomas, F.R.S., and Harold Schwann, F.Z.8 (Plate Vl.t) By the generous help of Mr. C. D. Rudd, Mr. C. H. B. Grant, who had previously collected at Deelfontein the fine series of Mammals presented by Col. A. T. Sloggett, has been enabled to continue in the Cape Colony collecting material for the British Museum. Diagnoses of the new forms published in Abstracts P. Z. S. 1904, no. 2, pp. 5, 6 (Feb. 9th). t For explanation of the Plate, see p. 183. After a short stay in the Cape Peninsula, where he obtained useful topotypes of several long-known species, Mr. Grant went to Little Namaqualand in March 1903, and settled at Klipfontein. a place some 80 miles inland of Port Nolloth, at an altitude of about 1000 metres. He also stayed for shorter periods at Anenous, north of Klipfontein, 50 miles from the coast (alt. 600 m.), and at Port Nolloth itself. So far as the British Museum is concerned, Namaqualand has been hitherto almost entirely neglected, the few specimens obtained there by Dr. Andrew Smith about 1830 (e. g. Petromys typicus, Otomys brantsii, &c.) and the little set collected by Dr. R. Broom at Port Nolloth in 1897 (including the type of Otomys broomi) being the only mammals that the Museum has ever received from that country. For the South African Museum Mr. Peringuey also collected a certain number at Klipfontein, as recorded by Mr. W. L. Sclater, but he does not seem to have come upon any of the new forms we now find it necessary to describe. This is the first occasion in the history of Cape zoology that any considerable...

Download or read book Mammals of Africa written by Jonathan Kingdon and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 3500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mammals of Africa (MoA) is a series of six volumes which describes, in detail, every currently recognized species of African land mammal. This is the first time that such extensive coverage has ever been attempted, and the volumes incorporate the very latest information and detailed discussion of the morphology, distribution, biology and evolution (including reference to fossil and molecular data) of Africa's mammals. With 1,160 species and 16 orders, Africa has the greatest diversity and abundance of mammals in the world. The reasons for this and the mechanisms behind their evolution are given special attention in the series. Each volume follows the same format, with detailed profiles of every species and higher taxa. The series includes some 660 colour illustrations by Jonathan Kingdon and his many drawings highlight details of morphology and behaviour of the species concerned. Diagrams, schematic details and line drawings of skulls and jaws are by Jonathan Kingdon and Meredith Happold. Every species also includes a detailed distribution map. Extensive references alert readers to more detailed information. Volume I: Introductory Chapters and Afrotheria (352 pages) Volume II: Primates (560 pages) Volume III: Rodents, Hares and Rabbits (784 pages) Volume IV: Hedgehogs, Shrews and Bats (800 pages) Volume V: Carnivores, Pangolins, Equids and Rhinoceroses (560 pages) Volume VI: Pigs, Hippopotamuses, Chevrotain, Giraffes, Deer and Bovids (704 pages)

The series includes hundreds of colour illustrations and pencil drawings by Jonathan Kingdon highlighting the morphology and behaviour of the species concerned, as well as line drawings of skulls and jaws by Jonathan Kingdon and Meredith Happold. Every species also includes a detailed distribution map. Edited by Jonathan Kingdon, David Happold, Tom Butynski, Mike Hoffmann, Meredith Happold and Jan Kalina, and written by more than 350 authors, all experts in their fields, Mammals of Africa is as comprehensive a compendium of current knowledge as is possible.
