(1 col.), 1 map ; 26 cm.Includes bibliographical references (p. 19-20).A new species of Eliurus, E. danieli (Nesomyidae: Nesomyinae), is described from the Parc National de l'Isalo in south-central Madagascar. Although geographically intermediate to eastern and western forms, diagnostic traits convincingly relate the new species to E. majori and E. penicillatus, forms distributed primarily in eastern humid forest; it is morphometrically most similar to E. penicillatus. In view of the increase in number of Eliurus species (11 now described), discussion is devoted to emerging species associations (5 are identified) and to taxonomic and distributional problems introduced by the accumulation of larger series and new localities over the past decade.1327338 bytesapplication/pdfen-USQL1 .A436 no.3547, 2007Eliurus danieliEliurusEliurus -- Geographical distribution.Rodents -- Madagascar -- Parc national de l'IsaloRodents -- MadagascarRodents -- Madagascar -- Geographical distribution.Mammals -- Madagascar -- Parc national de l'IsaloMammals -- MadagascarMammals -- Madagascar -- Geographical distribution.Parc national de l'Isalo (Madagascar)text
