“…Procapra has been used generically, and sometimes subgenerically, to distinguish picticaudata, gutturosa, and przewalskii from other gazelles. Some have grouped picticaudata and przewalskii as a single species (Allen 1940;Ellerman and Morrison-Scott 1966), but Stroganov (1949) and Groves (1967) gave specific status to picticaudata and przewalskii. Recent genetic studies of ribosomal DNA support the longstanding monophyly of these 3 species under Procapra (Lei et al 2003).…”

“…We reviewed the major works by Ellerman andMorrison-Scott (1951, 1953);Phillips (1980);Chapman and Flux (1990); Hill (1991, 1992); Hoffmann (1993); Roberts (1997) and Nowak (1999) to gain insights on the current taxonomic status of the lagomorphs occurring in the region. Besides these, we also referred numerous sources for information including Blyth (1863), Jerdon (1874), Anderson (1881), Sterndale (1884), Sclater (1891), Thomas (1922), Allen (1938), Bell et al (1970, Abe (1971Abe ( , 1982, Kawamichi (1971), Agrawal andChakraborty (1971), Hassinger (1973), Mitchell (1975Mitchell ( , 1978Mitchell ( , 1981, Chakraborty (1975Chakraborty ( , 1983, Ghose (1978), Oliver (1978), Bell (1986, Angermann (1983).…”

“…Hoffmann (1993) synonymized the former name with the latter following Corbet (1978), Angermann (1983) and, Harrison and Bates (1991). Gromov and Baranova (1981) included Lepus tibetanus Waterhouse, 1841 under Lepus tolai Pallas, 1778 that is presently considered as a distinct species (Hoffmann,993) unlike treated earlier as subspecies of Lepus capensis Linnaeus, 1758 by Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1951). Sokolov and Orlov (1980) treated Lepus tibetanus Waterhouse, 1841 as a distinct species.…”

“…As mentioned earlier, the last few decades witnessed numerous taxonomic advances with respect to lagomorphs (Forsyth, 1899;Lyon, 1904;Kloss, 1918;Ellerman & Morrison-Scott, 1951;Gureev, 1964;Corbet & Hill, 1980, 1992Corbet, 1983;Angermann et al, 1990;Smith et al, 1990;Flux & Angermann, 1990;Hoffmann, 1993;Yu et al, 2000). Recent checklists on Indian mammals (Nameer, 1998;Alfred et al, 2002) do not include all the South Asian taxa.…”

The Guizhou snub-nosed monkey (Rhinopithecus brelichi) is a primate species endemic to the Wuling Mountains in southern China. With a maximum of 800 wild animals, the species is endangered and one of the rarest Chinese primates. To assess the genetic diversity within R. brelichi and to analyze its genetic population structure, we collected fecal samples from the wild R. brelichi population and sequenced the hypervariable region I of the mitochondrial control region from 141 individuals. We compared our data with those from the two other Chinese snub-nosed species (R. roxellana, R. bieti) and reconstructed their phylogenetic relationships and divergence times. With only five haplotypes and a maximum of 25 polymorphic sites, R. brelichi shows the lowest genetic diversity in terms of haplotype diversity (h), nucleotide diversity (π), and average number of pairwise nucleotide differences (Π). The most recent common ancestor of R. brelichi lived ∼0.36 million years ago (Ma), thus more recently than those of R. roxellana (∼0.91 Ma) and R. bieti (∼1.33 Ma). Phylogenetic analysis and analysis of molecular variance revealed a clear and significant differentiation among the three Chinese snub-nosed monkey species. Population genetic analyses (Tajima's D, Fu's F(s) , and mismatch distribution) suggest a stable population size for R. brelichi. For the other two species, results point in the same direction, but population substructure possibly introduces some ambiguity. Because of the lower genetic variation, the smaller population size and the more restricted distribution, R. brelichi might be more vulnerable to environmental changes or climate oscillations than the other two Chinese snub-nosed monkey species.
