Lifespan, longevity, and ageing

fornecido por AnAge articles
Observations: Little is known about the longevity of animals. One captive specimen lived for 4 years (Richard Weigl 2005), and they have been reported to live for 6 years (Fisher et al. 2001). Without further studies, however, their maximum longevity must be classified as unknown.

Conservation Status ( Inglês )

fornecido por Animal Diversity Web

They are relatively common in their range so there is no special status for H. moschatus. Most of their living area falls within the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area so it seems that populations are pretty secure.

IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: least concern

Not only are they the smallest macropodids, but they are also morphologically the most primitive. Hypsiprymnodon moschatus is considered to represent the earliest evolutionary stage linking an ancestral arboreal opossum to the kangaroos. They are one of the very few truly diurnal macropodids in Australia. They are unique in that they have a well developed first digit on their hind foot. It is clawless and nonopposable to the other digits, but in all other genera the first digit is completely absent. Their scaly tail is also unique and different from other species within the family. Their name comes from a musky scent that is given off by both sexes.

Trophic Strategy ( Inglês )

fornecido por Animal Diversity Web

Musky rat kangaroos are different from other rat-kangaroos in that they are primarily insectivorous. They also eat worms, tuberous roots and palm berries. The animal sits on its haunches while eating and finds food by turning over debris and digging. They are solitary, but have sometimes been seen in feeding aggregations of two or three.

Morphology ( Inglês )

fornecido por Animal Diversity Web

Their body is 208-341mm long and their tail is 65-123mm long. They are a rich brown or rusty grey color and mostly covered by short velvety underfur. The underside is a creamy tan color, paler than the back. The tail is scaly and naked like that of an opossum. The ears are naked as well and are thin, round, and dark in color. The claws are small, weak, and unequal in length. Females have four mammae and a well developed pouch. The forelimbs and hindlimbs are more similar in size than in other Macropods. The dentition is adapted for a general diet, and the dental formula is (i 3/1,c 0-1/10, pm 2/2, m 4/4) X 2 = 32 or 34. Throughout early life, molariform teeth migrate to make room for late erupting molars. This fourth molar doesn't erupt until very late in life.

Other Physical Features: endothermic ; bilateral symmetry

Average mass: 500 g.

Musky rat kangaroo (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) ( Inglês )

fornecido por EOL authors
Some scientists place the musky rat kangaroo in a subfamily (Hypsiprymnodontinae) of the rat kangaroo family (Potoroidae), but the species is usually classified in the family Hypsiprymnodontidae with prehistoric rat-kangaroos (Wikipedia). It has several unusual traits, linking it to more primitive marsupial ancestors. These include reptile-like scales on its feet and tail, engaging in a more primitive hopping behavior than most of its kangaroo cousins and having 5 toes on each foot (Wikipedia). The musky rat kangaroo lives in dense vegetation surrounding lakes and streams in lowland and highland wet tropical rainforests in about 320km of the coast in northeastern Queensland (ADW, IUCN). It ranges from Mount Amos in the north to Mount Lee in the south and from sea level to around 1,100 m (IUCN). It does not persist in forest fragments (IUCN). The body is 208-341mm long, the tail is 65-123mm long and the weight is 332-680 g. It is a rich brown or rusty grey colour and is mostly covered by short velvety underfur. The underside is a creamy tan, paler than the back. The tail is scaly and hairless. The ears are naked, thin, round and dark in colour. The claws are small, weak and unequal in length. . The forelimbs and hindlimbs are more similar in size than in other macropods. The dentition is adapted for a general diet; the dental formula is (i 3/1,c 0-1/10, pm 2/2, m 4/4) X 2 = 32 or 34. Throughout early life, molariform teeth migrate to make room for late erupting molars. The fourth molar doesn't erupt until very late in life. The kangaroo is diurnal, reclusive and generally solitary, but may be seen in feeding aggregations of two or three (ADW, IUCN). It sleeps in nests at night (ADW, IUCN).It is quadrupedal and moves by extending its body and bringing both hind legs forward; it uses an opposable digit on the hind foot to climb trees (Wikipedia). It is primarily insectivorous, but also eats worms and other invertebrates, as well as tuberous roots, fallen ruit, large seeds and palm berries. It sits on its haunches while eating and finds food by turning over debris and digging. Breeding occurs from February-July (the rainy season). Females have four mammae. One to four (usually two) young are born and they leave the well-developed pouch after 21 weeks (ADW, IUCN). For several more weeks the young reside in nests. The kangaroo becomes sexually mature at about 1 year old. A captive lived for 4 years and the species is reported to live for 6 years (AnAge). The IUCN Conservation Status is 'Least Concern' as the kangaroo is relatively common in its range, has a presumed large population, lacks major threats and rarely comes into contact with humans and has no economic impact on them (ADW, IUCN). Feral cats and dogs may cause some localized declines (IUCN). The species does not survive in forest fragments and its former range has been reduced through conversion of tropical forest to agricultural and pastoral land, particularly in the coastal lowlands (IUCN). The species is present in a number of protected areas, including national parks, forest reserves, and the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area, so populations are probably secure (ADW, IUCN).

El cangur rata mesquer (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) és un marsupial de la mida d'una rata que viu a les selves pluvials de Nova Guinea i el nord-est d'Austràlia. Tot i que alguns científics classifiquen aquesta espècie dins una subfamília (Hypsiprymnodontinae) de la família dels potoròids, la classificació més recent la situen dins de la família dels hipsiprimnodòntids, juntament amb cangurs rata prehistòrics.[1] És el macropodiforme més petit dels que són quadrúpedes i únicament diürns. El cangur rata mesquer fa aproximadament 30 cm de llargada i té una cua calba. S'alimenta de fruita que ha caigut i de petits invertebrats.

Es mou estenent les potes anteriors i tirant les potes posteriors cap endavant alhora. Les mares donen a llum dues o tres cries, que romanen al marsupi durant unes 21 setmanes.

Moschusrattenkänguru ( Alemão )

fornecido por wikipedia DE

Das Moschusrattenkänguru (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) ist eine Beutelsäugerart. Es gilt als urtümlichster Vertreter der Känguruartigen (Macropodoidea), eines Taxons, das daneben noch die Kängurus und Rattenkängurus umfasst.

Beschreibung

Im Körperbau zeigt das Moschusrattenkänguru einige Merkmale, die bei keinem anderen Känguru oder Rattenkänguru vorkommen. So ist die erste Zehe der Hinterbeine noch vorhanden und der Schwanz ist beschuppt und unbehaart. Auch die Ohren sind dünn, rund und unbehaart und die Vordergliedmaßen im Verhältnis länger als bei den anderen Arten. Ihr kurzes, seidiges Fell ist braun oder rostfarben gefärbt, die Unterseite ist heller. Diese Tiere erreichen eine Kopfrumpflänge von 21 bis 34 Zentimetern, eine Schwanzlänge von 12 bis 16 Zentimetern und ein Gewicht von 340 bis 680 Gramm. Der Name bezieht sich auf den moschusartigen Geruch, den beide Geschlechter verströmen.

Lebensweise

 src=
Moschusrattenkängurus
Illustration aus Brehms Thierleben (1883)

Moschusrattenkängurus leben in Regenwäldern entlang der Nordostküste von Queensland (Australien). Meistens halten sie sich in der Nähe von Gewässern wie Flüssen oder Seen auf. Als einziges Rattenkänguru sind sie strikt tagaktiv; sie gelten als scheue, zurückgezogen lebende Tiere. Meist bewegen sie sich auf allen vieren fort statt zu hüpfen, dafür können sie auch gut klettern. Mit ihrem eingerollten Schwanz sammeln sie Zweige und Blätter, aus denen sie sich ein Nest errichten. Sie leben in der Regel einzelgängerisch, begeben sich aber manchmal zu zweit oder dritt auf Nahrungssuche.

Auch in der Nahrung unterscheidet sich das Moschusrattenkänguru von anderen Rattenkängurus, da es sich fast ausschließlich von Insekten ernährt. Gelegentlich nimmt es auch Würmer, Pilze und Beeren zu sich, wobei das Tier oft auf seinem Hinterteil sitzt und mit den Vorderpfoten das Laub am Boden nach Beute durchwühlt.

Fortpflanzung

Weibchen haben einen gut entwickelten Beutel mit vier Zitzen. Die Jungen, meistens zwei, kommen in der Regenzeit (Februar bis Juli) zur Welt. Sie verlassen den Beutel mit rund fünf Monaten, bleiben aber noch einige Wochen im Nest der Mutter. Die Geschlechtsreife tritt mit rund einem Jahr ein.

Bedrohung

Moschusrattenkängurus sind relativ häufig und zählen nicht zu den bedrohten Arten. Ein Gutteil ihres Verbreitungsgebietes liegt in Naturschutzgebieten, sodass ihr Lebensraum weitgehend stabil ist.

Systematik

 src=
Moschusrattenkängurus
Illustration aus Brehms Tierleben (1927)

In der traditionellen Systematik wird das Moschusrattenkänguru in einer eigenen Unterfamilie (Hypsiprymnodontinae) innerhalb der Rattenkängurus (Potoroidae) geführt. Nach phylogenetischer Sichtweise steht es jedoch allen anderen Kängugruartigen (Macropodoidea) gegenüber, womit die Rattenkängurus zu einer polyphyletischen Gruppe würden. Aus diesem Grund sind die Hypsiprymnodontinae als Hypsiprymnodontidae in den Rang einer eigenen Familie innerhalb der Känguruartigen befördert worden.

Neben dem Moschusrattenkänguru als einziger rezenter Art und den fossilen Arten Hypsiprymnodon bartholomaii, H. dennisi, H. karenblackae und H. philcreaseri werden den Hypsiprymnodontiden einige weitere fossile Formen zugeordnet, unter anderem die Gattungen Ekaltadeta aus dem Miozän von Riversleigh und Propleopus aus dem Pliozän und Pleistozän des südöstlichen Australiens,[1] wenngleich eine neuere Verwandtschaftsanalyse (2007) ergab, dass diese als „Riesenrattenkängurus“ (Propleopinae) zusammengefassten Formen zusammen mit anderen fossilen Vertretern eine eigene, noch ursprünglichere Linie bilden könnten.[2]

Musky rat-kangaroo ( Inglês )

fornecido por wikipedia EN

The musky rat-kangaroo (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) is a small marsupial found only in the rainforests of northeastern Australia. First described in the later 19th century, the only other species are known from fossil specimens. They are similar in appearance to potoroos and bettongs, but are not as closely related. Their omnivorous diet is known to include materials such as fruit and fungi, as well as small animals such as insects and other invertebrates. The local Aboriginal name for the species is durrgim yuri.[4][5]

Taxonomy

The description of this species, assigned to a new genus Hypsiprymnodon, was published in 1876 by Edward Pierson Ramsay, a curator at the Australian Museum.[3] The syntypes are part of the museum's collection, mounted specimens of a male and female collected at Rockingham Bay, Queensland.[6] Ramsay's specimens were obtained during European settlement of northeastern Australia on an expedition toward the Herbert River.[7] A description of the species was provided by Richard Owen in the year after Ramsay's publication, the name Pleopus nudicaudatus, describing the five toes of the hind foot and its scaly, naked tail, is now regarded as a synonym.[8] Ramsay had provisionally assigned the species to the genus Hypsiprymnus, but in his review of the dentition he proposed to separate them to a new genus.[3] Hypsiprymnodon moschatus has been placed with the subfamily Hypsiprymnodontinae of the family Potoroidae, the most recent classification[1] places it in the family Hypsiprymnodontidae with prehistoric taxa.

The specific epithet is derived from Latin term moschatus, meaning musky.[9] The description as a new species of 'rat-kangaroo' was the last of the 19th century, bringing the total to nine species, and no other new species would be formally described for another 90 years.[7]

Description

Hypsiprymnodon moschatus is the smallest species of the macropod order, weighing around 500 grams. The total length of the head and body is 155 to 270 millimetres, the weight range 360 to 680 grams.[10] Sexual dimorphism is not readily apparent in this species, although the females may be slightly larger.[11] They have a long black tail, measuring from 125 to 160 mm. The appearance of the tail is scaly, rather than hairy, and proportionally shorter than the length of the head and body.[10] Their ears are also nearly hairless and appear leathery.[12] The pelage is a uniform, deep and rich brown colour with reddish highlights over most of the body, the head and lower parts are somewhat greyish.[10] The dark and chocolatey colour of the fur distinguish them from the other living 'rat-kangaroos'. A steel grey colour at the head grades into the rich brown of the body.[12] The feet of H. moschatus are blackish and, uniquely among the macropods, have five toes at the hind foot. A band of white, variously slight to distinct, appears from the belly toward the throat. The animal emits a noticeable musky odour.[10]

Dentition of the species resembles that of the extant potoroids, but for that family's incisor formula of I3/1. The dental formula of H. moschatus is I3/2 C1/0 PM1/1 M4/4. Two premolars found in juveniles are replaced at maturity when a single sectorial premolar erupts. The sequence of emerging molars and premolars allows the age of the individual to be determined. Hypsiprymnodon moschatus have a fine and delicate skull structure with a rostrum that is narrow and elongate. A long nasal bone structure and distance between the canine and premolar teeth is large.[13]

Distribution and habitat

The species only occurs in the northeastern part of the continent. They may be locally common in remaining areas of extensive rainforest and can occur at high and low elevations. The distribution range extends from west of Ingham, Queensland at Mt. Lee to Mt. Amos south of Cooktown. They are found in low altitude rainforests, such as Cape Tribulation and Mission Beach, and within the montane habitat of the Carbine, Atherton and Windsor tableland regions.[10] The population density of H. moschatus is from 1.40 to 4.50 animals per hectare.[14]

Behaviour

A usually solitary animal that is only active during the day, distinguishing them from the nocturnal habits of the rat-kangaroos in the Potoroidae family. They are most active in the morning and afternoon, retiring to their shelter during the middle of the day.[15] They are mostly terrestrial, foraging at the forest floor, although they are able to move through the branches of the lower vegetation.

A nest is roughly constructed at a site where the animal shelters while sleeping.[10] Observations of the behaviour within its dense habitat presented difficulties to early field work, however, the use of a thread, lightly glued to the animal and fed from a spool, allowed the activity and range of males and females to be more accurately evaluated. The individual ranges overlap in both their foraging and nest site. Males may venture out in a range from 0.8 to 4.2 hectares, while females are recorded foraging over a smaller sized area of up to 2.2 ha. Although they are usually solitary in the activities, several may gather to feed at fallen fruit.

Their omnivorous diet comprises fruits and fungi along with some insects and other invertebrates, found among the leaf litter and lower storey of the rainforest.[10] The composition of the diet has been described as omnivorous, perhaps with reduced capacity for the carnivory of some fossil species of propleonines, but other records suggest the diet is largely frugivorous.[16]

Aggressive behaviours between males may be displayed during the austral spring and summer months, vigorously pursuing each other for around 30 seconds. The male's encounters, sometimes in competition for fruit, increase in frequency during breeding months; physical interactions between the males are restricted to striking with the front paw.[17] Reproductive activity is mostly from October to April, the usual litter size is two offspring. The newborns travel in the pouch of the mother for about 21 weeks, and then are left at the nest while the mother forages until the juveniles are fully weaned.[10] The earliest records note that the animal was elusive and discreet in its nature, and that specimens were difficult to obtain.[3]

Regular activity is conducted on all four limbs, but unlike the bettongs and potoroos, the musky rat-kangaroo bounds using all its paws when moving rapidly. This resembles the characteristic hopping of a rabbit more than that of its macropod relations.[12] It moves by extending its body and then bringing both of its hind legs forward, and uses an opposable toe on the hind foot to climb trees.[18]

Ecology

A number of parasitic species are presumed to be associated with H. moschatus, including internal organisms such as roundworm and tapeworm species and ectoparasites such as ticks, mites, lice and fleas; the identified species of mites (Acari) are those of genera Mesolaelaps and Trichosurolaelaps.[19]

Musky rat-kangaroos have been protected from many of the threatening factors that greatly reduced the potoroine species, and their rainforest habitat has in part remain secluded and conserved. The species remains vulnerable to fragmentation of the population by land clearing, which disrupts the ability to recolonise and increases genetic isolation, Their role in seed dispersal within their range is likewise important to the ecology of their tropical rainforest habitat.[20] By carrying a fleshy fruit away to be consumed, or pressing them into earth as a cache, Hypsiprymnodon moschatus gives advantage to the plant's potential for recruitment. This interaction between plants and mammal has been compared to those on other continents, such as the squirrels and agoutis, and posited as an example of convergent evolution.[21]

The lack of size difference in the sexes corresponds to a limited home range for males, the inability to range beyond the female also allows greater attention to sexual competitors.[11] The high level of overlaps in range of a local populous allows high population densities.[22]

After the first description of the species, the musky rat-kangaroo was allied to various familial relationships. Later revisions have strongly indicated deep divergence from the extant potoroid marsupials, Bettongia and Potorous, and separated at the family level as Hypsiprymnodontidae. The discovery of fossil specimens has revealed a more widespread and diverse lineage in Miocene Australia. The placement may be summarised as,

Musky rat-kangaroo: Brief Summary ( Inglês )

fornecido por wikipedia EN

The musky rat-kangaroo (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) is a small marsupial found only in the rainforests of northeastern Australia. First described in the later 19th century, the only other species are known from fossil specimens. They are similar in appearance to potoroos and bettongs, but are not as closely related. Their omnivorous diet is known to include materials such as fruit and fungi, as well as small animals such as insects and other invertebrates. The local Aboriginal name for the species is durrgim yuri.

Hypsiprymnodon moschatus ( Espanhol; Castelhano )

fornecido por wikipedia ES

El canguro rata almizclado (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) es una especie de marsupial diprotodonto de la familia Hypsiprymnodontidae propia de Australia[2]​ y es el único miembro viviente de su género y familia.[3]​ Su nombre vulgar alude al olor emitido por ambos sexos.[4]

Descripción

 src=
Canguro rata almizclado.

Es el macropodiforme de menor tamaño y el más primitivo.[5]​ Se considera que en muchos aspectos es una evidencia de los orígenes evolutivos de los canguros a partir de las zarigüeyas.[6]​ Superficialmente es similar a los canguros rata.[3]​ La coloración de su pelaje es parda o gris herrumbroso, más brillante en el dorso y más pálido en las partes inferiores.[7]​ Algunos ejemplares tienen, además, una zona de color blanco en la garganta que se extiende como una estrecha línea hasta el pecho.[7]​ Las orejas carecen de pelo y son oscuras, finas y redondeadas.[5]​ Difiere del resto de macropodiformes por tener el primer dedo del pie, en el cual falta la uña, y pese a no ser oponible como en los falangeros sirve para mostrar su afinidad con estos;[4]​ la cola, además es escamosa y carece de pelo.[4]

Son pequeños marsupiales escasamente más grandes que una rata;[4]​ tienen una longitud cabeza-cuerpo de entre 208 y 341 mm, más la cola que mide entre 123 y 65 mm y un peso que varía entre 337 y 680 g.[7]

Su fórmula dental es la siguiente: (i 3/1, c0-1/10, pm 2/2, m4/4) x2= 32 o 34.[5]

Distribución y hábitat

Es endémico de Australia, donde está restringido a bosques tropicales de una zona relativamente reducida del noreste del estado de Queensland, encontrándose desde el nivel del mar hasta los 1.100 m de altitud.[1]​ Habita zonas de densa vegetación en torno a lagos y arroyos.[5]

Comportamiento

 src=
Hypsiprymnodon moschatus

Es de hábitos estrictamente diurnos, refugiándose durante la noche en su nido,[1]​ y aunque es un animal solitario se han observado pequeños grupos de hasta tres o más individuos buscando comida.[7]

Es omnívoro, se alimenta de materia vegetal, además de insectos e invertebrados que encuentra revolviendo la hojarasca del suelo de la selva.[4]​ Habitualmente cuando se desplaza rápidamente lo hace dando botes en lugar de brincar,[6]​ pero a diferencia del resto de macropodiformes lo hace utilizando sus cuatro patas.[8]

No muestra los mismos patrones reproductivos que los canguros,[3]​ y no presenta diapausa embrionaria.[8]​ La época de cría tiene lugar de febrero a julio durante la estación lluviosa.[5]​ Las hembras paren de 1 a 4 crías, pero habitualmente son 2.[1]​ Abandonan el marsupio de la madre tras 21 semanas y a partir de entonces pasan una parte considerable del día en el nido.[7]​ Ambos sexos alcanzan la madurez sexual al año.[7]

Registro fósil

Se han encontrado especímenes fósiles desde el Mioceno. La única especie descrita hasta el momento es H. bartholomaii Flannery & Archer, 1987.[9]

Myskikenguru ( Finlandês )

fornecido por wikipedia FI

Myskikenguru (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) on pienikokoinen kenguruiden sukuinen pussieläinlaji. Toisin kuin muut kengurut, se liikkuu yleensä neljällä jalalla kuten kaniini. Se synnyttää yleensä kaksoset.

Se luokitellaan nykyisin Hypsiprymnodontidae-heimon ainoaksi elossa olevaksi lajiksi, kun ennen se oli alaheimona rottakenguruiden heimossa.

Koko ja ulkonäkö

Myskikenguru on pienikokoinen, ruskea, hiirimäinen kenguru. Sen ruumiin pituus on 23-34 cm ja hännänpituus 13-17 cm. Sillä on pitkät takajalat niin kuin muillakin kenguruilla, mutta samanlainen häntä kuin hiirellä.

Levinneisyys

Myskikengurua tavataan Australian koillisosissa ja Uusi-Guinean sademetsissä.

Le kangourou-rat musqué (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus, Musky Rat-kangaroo en anglais) est un petit marsupial, trouvé dans les forêts humides en Australie et en Nouvelle-Guinée.

Systématique

Classé par certains scientifiques dans la sous-famille des Hypsiprymnodontinae de la famille des Potoroidae, les plus récentes recherches l'élèvent au rang de famille des Hypsiprymnodontidae en y incluant également des rats-kangourous préhistoriques.

Description

C'est le plus petit des macropodes. Il mesure environ 23 cm de long.

Comportement

Il est quadrupède et uniquement diurne. Il se déplace en étirant simultanément ses pattes avant puis en rapprochant ensemble ses pattes arrière.

Alimentation

Il se nourrit de fruits tombés sur le sol et de petits invertébrés.

Reproduction

Les femelles ont 2 ou 3 petits qu'elles gardent dans leur poche marsupiale jusqu'à environ 21 semaines.

Il ratto canguro muschiato (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus Ramsay, 1876) è una specie di marsupiale delle dimensioni di un ratto diffusa nelle foreste pluviali della Nuova Guinea e dell'Australia nord-orientale. Nonostante alcuni scienziati lo considerino come appartenente ad una sottofamiglia (Ipsiprimnodontini, Hypsiprymnodontinae) della famiglia dei Potoroidi, le classificazioni più recenti[1] lo pongono nella famiglia degli Ipsiprimnodontidi insieme ad altre specie preistoriche di ratti canguro. Questo animale, il più piccolo tra tutti i Macropodiformi, ha un'andatura quadrupede ed è attivo solamente di giorno. Lungo circa 23 cm, si nutre di frutti caduti, ma anche di piccoli invertebrati.

Si sposta estendendo prima le zampe anteriori e poi portando in avanti entrambe le posteriori.

La femmina dà alla luce due o tre piccoli, che rimarranno nel marsupio per circa 21 settimane.

Muskuskangoeroerat ( Neerlandês; Flamengo )

fornecido por wikipedia NL

De muskuskangoeroerat (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus), ook wel muskusratkangoeroe, is de enige levende soort uit de kangoeroefamilie Hypsiprymnodontidae. Deze soort leeft in het noordoosten van Australië.

Uiterlijk

De muskuskangoeroerat heeft een lichaamslengte van 23 tot 33.5 cm en een staart van 13 tot 17 cm lang. Het gewicht bedraagt 510 tot 530 gram. De kop is grijs en het lichaam is roodbruin van kleur. De staart is kaal en geschubd. Ook de oren zijn onbehaard. De muskuskangoeroerat is de primitiefste kangoeroesoort en dit dier bezit enkele kenmerken van de koeskoezen die de andere kangoeroes niet hebben: de muskuskangoeroerat heeft vijf tenen, een simpele maag zodat deze soort geen gras kan verteren en deze kangoeroe krijgt tweelingen. Bovendien beweegt de muskuskangoeroerat zich veelal voort op vier poten. Zowel de mannelijke als de vrouwelijke dieren verspreiden een sterke muskusgeur, vooral in de paartijd.

Leefwijze

De muskuskangoeroerat is een solitair of in paren levend dier. In de ochtend en late middag is dit dier actief en de muskuskangoeroerat voedt zich met zaden, noten, paddenstoelen en insecten. Er worden ook voedselvoorraden opgeslagen, wat heel zeldzaam is bij buideldieren. 's Nachts slaapt deze kangoeroe in een nest op de bosbodem.

Verspreiding

De muskuskangoeroerat leeft in Australië in de tropische regenwouden van het Kaap York-schiereiland in het noorden van Queensland.

Torebnik piżmowy ( Polonês )

fornecido por wikipedia POL
Commons Multimedia w Wikimedia Commons

Torebnik piżmowy[3][4] (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) – gatunek torbacza, jedyny współczesny przedstawiciel rodzaju torebnik (Hypsiprymnodon) i rodziny torebnikowatych (Hypsiprymnodontidae)[5][4].

Wcześniej był zaliczany do kanguroszczurowatych i kangurowatych.

Występowanie

Występuje w wilgotnych lasach równikowych na wschodzie Australii w północno-wschodnim Queensland[3].

Morfologia

Torebnik piżmowy ma wydłużony pysk, okrągłe i nagie uszy, zaś ogon jest nieowłosiony i pokryty łuskami. Ma brązowe, gęste futro. Wybarwienie części grzbietowej ciemniejsze, zaś na bokach jaśniejsze. Pazury są słabo wykształcone[3].

Średnie wymiary[3]
  • Długość ciała – 23-33 cm
  • Długość ogona – 13-17 cm
  • Masa ciała – około 0,5 kg

Rozmnażanie

  • Samice torebnika piżmowego regularnie rodzą bliźnięta.
  • Młode rodzą się zazwyczaj w porze deszczowej (od lutego do maja; lecz zdarzają się wyjątki)[3].

Tryb życia

  • Prawdopodobnie zachowuje aktywność zarówno w nocy jak i dzień
  • Zwyczaje – Jest samotnikiem, ale może żyć także w parze.
  • Bardzo często porusza się jak królik, na 4 kończynach. Ma bardzo dobrze wykształcony pierwszy palec na każdej stopie w przeciwieństwie do innych kangurowatych.
  • Pożywienie – owoce palm, ale także owadami i innymi bezkręgowcami[3]

Hypsiprymnodon moschatus ( Português )

fornecido por wikipedia PT

O rato-canguru-almiscarado (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) é um marsupial do tamanho de um rato, que pode ser encontrado em florestas pluviais da Nova Guiné e do Nordeste da Austrália. Apesar de alguns cientistas colocarem esta espécie com uma subfamília (Hypsiprymnodontinae) da família Potoroidae, a mais recente classificação coloca-a na família Hypsiprymnodontidae. É o mais pequeno dos macrópodes e é quadrúpede e de hábitos diurnos. Tem aproximadamente 23 cm de comprimento. Alimenta-se de fruta caída e também de pequenos invertebrados.

Movimenta-se estendendo as patas traseiras e depois avançando ambas as patas posteriores.

As fêmeas têm ninhadas de 2 a 3 crias, que permanecem na bolsa durante cerca de 21 semanas.

Myskkänguru ( Sueco )

fornecido por wikipedia SV

Myskkänguru (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) är ett pungdjur i ordningen fåframtandade pungdjur (Diprotodontia). Djuret som utgör den enda arten i familjen Hypsiprymnodontidae och även i släktet Hypsiprymnodon är närmare släkt med kängurudjur och råttkänguruer än med andra djur i samma ordning.

Utseende

Denna art har fyra tår på bakre foten och svansen bär fjäll samt saknar hår. Öronen är runda och naken. De främre extremiteterna är i jämförelse till kroppen längre än hos kängurudjur och råttkänguruer. Den korta silkeslena pälsen är brun eller rostfärgade och på undersidan ljusare. Ibland förekommer en vit fläck på främre halsen. Myskkänguruer når en kroppslängd mellan 21 och 34 cm, en svanslängd av 12 till 16 cm och en vikt mellan 340 och 680 gram. Djurets namn syftar på den myskliknande doften som förekommer hos bägge kön. I motsats till andra fåframtandade pungdjur finns vid bakfoten en väl utvecklad rörlig stortå som inte är motsättlig.[2] En annan källa från samma år anger att stortån är motsättlig och att den används för att klättra i träd.[3] Den nakna svansen används som gripverktyg. Svansen bär bruna fjäll.[4]

Tandformeln är I 3/1 C 0-1/0-1 P 2/2 M 4/4, alltså 32 till 34 tänder.[5]

Utbredning och systematik

Myskkänguruer har ett litet utbredningsomrde och förekommer enbart i regnskog utmed den nordöstra kustlinjen av Queensland i Australien.[1] Arten vistas i låglandet och i bergstrakter upp till 1500 meter över havet.[4]

Inom traditionell taxonomi räknades myskkänguruer som en underfamilj i familjen råttkänguruer. Nyare studier indikerar att den bör placeras i den egna familjen Hypsiprymnodontidae.[6] Två nära släktingar, Propleopus oscillans och Propleopus chillagoensis, som levde fram till pleistocen blev upp till 70 kilogram tunga.[7] Enligt uppskattningar skilde sig myskkänguruns utvecklingslinje från råttkänguruernas utvecklingslinje för 45 miljoner år sedan.[4]

Ekologi

Myskkänguruer lever i regnskog och vistas ofta i närheten av vattendrag eller sjöar.[2] I motsats till råttkänguruer är de aktiva på dagen men mycket skygga. Oftast går dessa djur på fyra extremiteter istället för att hoppa och de har bra förmåga att klättra. Med hjälp av svansen samlar de kvistar och löv för att bygga en bo. Vanligtvis lever myskkänguruer ensam men ibland förekommer mindre grupper av två till tre individer. Arten vilar under natten och under dagens hetaste timmar.[2][5]

Även angående föda skiljer sig myskkänguruer från råttkänguruer på grund av att de äter många insekter. Ibland livnär sig dessa djur av maskar, svampar och bär. Ofta sitter de på sin bakdel och letar med framfötterna i lövhögar efter föda.[5] En annan viktig del av födan utgörs av frukter som hamnade på marken.[4]

Myskkängurun faller offer för rovlevande djur som större ormar, ugglor, hökfåglar och pungmårdar.[4]

Fortplantning

Honor har en bra utvecklade pung med fyra spenar. Under regntiden (februari till juli) födds mest två ungdjur. Ungdjuren lämnar pungen efter ungefär fem månader men stannar oftast några veckor till i moderns bo. Efter cirka ett år är ungarna könsmogna.[2] I motsats till flera kängurudjur finns ingen fördröjd dräktighet.[4]

Hot och status

Myskkänguruer finns i jämförelsevis stor antal och de räknas inte till de hotade arterna. Enda hotet utgörs av introducerade hundar och katter.[1] Flera regioner av deras levnadsområde ligger i naturskyddsområden som Queenslands våta tropiker och därför är populationen relativt stabil.[5]

Misk sıçankangurusu ( Turco )

fornecido por wikipedia TR

Misk sıçankangurusu (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) yalnız başına Hypsiprymnodontidae familyasına konulan iki ön dişli bir keseli türü. Kangurumsuların (Macropodoidea) arasında en ilkelleri olarak kabul edilir. Diğer kangurumsular Sıçankangurusugiller ve Kangurugiller'dir.

Özellikleri

Misk sıçankangurusu'nun vücudunda diğer kangurumsularda bulunmayan bazı özellikler vardır: Arka ayaklarının baş parmakları diğer kangurumsu familyalarından farklı olarak hala mevcuttur. Kuyruğu tüysüz ve pulludur. Kulakları ince, yuvarlak ve tüysüz olur. Ön ayakları diğer familyalardan farklı olarak daha uzundur. Üst kısmı kahverengi veya kızıl, alt kısmı ise daha açık renk olan postunun tüyleri kısa ve ipekimsidir. Vücutları 21 – 34 cm, kuyrukları ise 12 – 16 cm uzunluğa ve 340 - 680 gram ağırlığa ulaşırlar. İsimleri hem erkek hem dişilerin ürettiği misk kokusuna dikkati çekmektedir.

Yaşam şekli

 src=
Misk sıçankangurusu

Misk sıçankangurusu Avustralya'nın kuzeydoğusunda bulunan tropik ormanlarda yaşar. Genelde bir ırmağın ya da gölün yakınında rastlanırlar. Sıçankangurusugiller'den farklı olarak daima gündüz aktif olur. Çok ürkek ve saklı yaşayan bir hayvandır. Hoplayarak ilerlemekten daha çok dört ayak üzerinde yürür ve iyi tırmanıcıdır. Genelde yalnız yaşarlar ama bazen ikişer veya üçer bireyin birlikte yem aradığıda görülür.

Beselenme şeklide diğer kangurularda olduğundan farklıdır. Misk sıçankangurusu neredeyse sadece böcek ile beslenir. Ara sıra solucan, mantar veya meyvede yer.

Üreme

Dişilerin iyi gelişmiş bir keseleri ve kesenin içinde 4 adet memeleri vardır. Çoğunlukla 2 adet olan yavrular genelde yağmur zamanında (şubat ile haziran arası) dünyaya gelir. İlk 5 ayı annenin kesesinde geçirdikten sonra keseden çıkarlar. Birkaç hafta daha annelerinin yuvasında kalır ve yaklaşık bir yıl sonra ergenlik çağına ulaşırlar.

Sınıflandırma

Moschusrattenkaengurus-drawing.jpg

Misk sıçankangurusu eski sınıflandırmalarda Sıçankangurusugiller familyası içerisinde Hypsiprymnodontinae alt familyasına konulurdu. Ancak daha çağdaş görüşlere göre kendi kendine kladistik bir grup olduğu kabul edilir ve artık Hypsiprymnodontidae adında ayrı bir familyaya konulmaktadır.

fornecido por wikipedia UK

Опис

Довжина тулуба: 20–35 см, довжинахвоста: 6.5–15 см, вага: 300—650 г. Колір хутра цих тварин світло-коричневий або рудо-сірий на спині, черево жовтувате, боки — помаранчеві. Хутро жорстке, хвіст майже не має хутра, вкритий особливими шкіряними лусочками, нагадує хвіст американських опосумів. За деякими рисами є проміжною формою між посумами та кенгуру. Має особливість — великі пальці задніх лап рухливі, без кігтів на відміну від посумів.

Спосіб життя

Кенгуровий мускусний щур діє вдень, а вночі відпочиває. Харчується здебільшого комахами, іноді ягодами. Створює кубла з папороті. Живе у густих чагарникових хащах, дощових лісах та біля водоймищ. Гарно лазить по деревам і стрибає як кенгуру. Створює групи з 2–3 осіб.

Статева зрілість у самок наступає на 1 рік життя. Розмноження триває з лютого до червня. Народжується 2 дитинча, які залишають торбу матері після 21 дня.

Розповсюдження

Вид мешкає на невеличкій території у південно-східному Квінсленді.

IUCN 3.1 Least Concern: 40559

Мускусный кенгуру или цепконогий кенгуру, или мускусная кенгуровая крыса, или цепконог[1] (Hypsiprymnodon moschatus) — единственный вид рода Hypsiprymnodon. Распространён на побережье северо-восточного Квинсленда.

Внешний вид

Это небольшой зверёк: длина его тела составляет 208—341 мм, хвоста 65—123 мм; масса 337—680 г. Волосяной покров густой и бархатистый; окрас шерсти ярко-коричневый или рыже-серый на спине, на боках оранжевый, брюхо желтоватое.

Внешне мускусный кенгуру сходен с обычной крысой. Голова у него короткая, морда заострённая. Уши небольшие, голые, тёмные. Хвост пушистый только у основания, покрыт кожными чешуйками; напоминает хвост опоссума. Конечности одинаковой длины. Когти маленькие, слабые. Задние конечности имеют подвижный I палец, который, однако, не противопоставлен другим пальцам и не имеет когтя. Самки имеют развитую выводковую сумку и 4 соска. Мускусными кенгуру этих зверьков назвали за характерный запах мускуса, свойственный обоим полам.

Образ жизни и питание

Мускусный кенгуру обитает в дождевых лесах, часто в густых зарослях по берегам водоёмов. Это довольно обычное животное, однако его нелегко наблюдать из-за скрытности и осторожности. Передвигается мускусный кенгуру проворно, на четырех лапах; по некоторым сведениям способен прыгать на задних лапах, как настоящий кенгуру. Хорошо лазает по деревьям. Активен днем; ночью спит в гнезде из сухих папоротников и лишайников. Материал для гнезда мускусный кенгуру носит при помощи хвоста.

Мускусные кенгуру преимущественно насекомоядны. Их излюбленная пища — черви и насекомые, а также ягоды и корнеплоды, которые они выкапывают из земли. Мускусный кенгуру ведет одиночный образ жизни, хотя во время кормления обычны группы из 2—3 особей.

Размножаются мускусные кенгуру в дождливый сезон, с февраля по июль. Рождаются 2 детёныша. Они покидают сумку в возрасте 21 недель, после чего ещё несколько недель остаются в гнезде. Самки достигают половой зрелости после года жизни.

Другое

Мускусный кенгуру не только самый маленький вид в подотряде Macropodiformes, но и морфологически — самый примитивный. Он считается эволюционным звеном между древесными поссумами и кенгуру.

Интересные факты

Интересно то, что процесс покидания матери повзрослевшим и готовым к самостоятельной жизни потомством происходит «через силу», так как самка всё ещё проявляет участие в заботе о своих детях.
