HMW 6 can be preordered for a Pre-publication Offer until May 15, 2016

--------------

Question: HMW 7 state that there are 9 families in the suborder Myomorpha. That are two families more than in MSW3 (2005). So which families are new?

Got a message that volume 6 will not be ready in time. Presently, end of July is the official date, with shipping in August/September. If it's not more, we can probably all live with it. B :)
 
Hello Everyone, i have two small questions regarding Genus ( Leopardus ) in the first volume,

1 - Did they recognize the Pantanal Cat ( Leopardus braccatus ) and the Pampas Cat ( Leopardus pajeros ) as distinct species from the colocolo ( Leopardus colocolo ) ?

2 - What taxa ( species & subspecies ) - including forms - are illustrated in Genus ( Leopardus ) plate ?

Thank You...

1) Leopardus braccatus and Leopardus pajeros are still mentioned as subspecies but they add: ..although braccatus and pajeros likely represent distinct species. (HMW 1 2009 p 146)

a) Leopardus pardalis pardalis
b) Leopardus pardalis mitis
c) Leopardus wiedii
d) Leopardus colocolo colocolo
e) Leopardus colocolo braccatus
f) Leopardus colocolo pajeros
g) Leopardus jacobitus

l) Leopardus guigna tigrillo
m) Leopardus geoffroyi geoffroyi

HMW 6 listed as available now

Lynx lists Volume 6 now as being available. I presume most of us will still have to wait a while till we can actually look at it.

My supplier has it on the site as available from 30th?

Wish they'd put something a bit more interesting than a Rabbit on the front......

Strange, my supplier has been told by Lynx that they only have enough printed to bring to Birdfair as display copies?
