About This Book
A thorough natural-history and taxonomic monograph of North American weasels that integrates paleontological background, skeletal and dental anatomy, life-history observations, and patterns of geographic, seasonal, age-related, and sexual variation. It documents methods and specimen data, presents an artificial key and diagnostic characters, and provides systematic accounts of recognized species and subspecies with discussion of distribution and speciation. Extensive plates, figures, cranial measurements, an annotated nomenclatural list, and a bibliography support identification and comparative study for researchers and naturalists.
