Fur-bearing Animals: A Monograph of North American Mustelidae, in which an Account of the Wolverene, the Martens Or Sables, the Ermine, the Mink and Various Other Kinds of Weasels, Several Species of Skunks, the Badger, the Land and Sea Otters, and Numerous Exotic Allies of These Animals, is Contributed to the History of North American MammalsU.S. Government Printing Office, 1877 - 348 sivua It is believed that the Monograph satisfactorily reflects the present state of our knowledge of these animals, and forms a desirable contribution to the literature of the general subject. The Muselidae, like most other families of North American mammals, have not been systematically revised for many years, during which much new material, hitherto unused, has become available for the purposes of science. |
