It's really a shame that there aren't any from the Amazon or the playful Colombian weasel... but I hope there will be more.

You are of course right and I am aware how rare those Carnivores are. The authors were searching photos few years prior the publication, so I had some hopes for the M.felipei at least. Not the ones that you pointed out :)
 
We were contacted by an author some years ago c2020, who wanted to use our picture of Cebus olivaceus in a forthcoming book but we never heard from him again?

Both of those weasels are incredibly rare, and may very well not have good publication quality photos in existence

I mean I doubt the book would want to include this:

Coffee Producers Capture Rare Amazon Weasel on Video

Further to my earlier post (#776), I was informed at the recent Global Bird Fair that an English translation of the 4th edition of Eduardo de Juana & Juan Varela's excellent book - Aves de Espana - is at an advanced stage and will be published anon. Good news but I'm still surprised that the publisher hasn't rolled this and its sister volume on Portugal (which shares the same illustrations, maps and most of the text) into a single 'Birds of Iberia' guide. I'd have thought it would have made more economic sense to do so.
