Sentences with MUSTELID (5)
They are gathered by the little lemmings and meadow-mice, who, in their turn, become the prey of two species of _mustelidæ_, the ermine and vison weasels.
Some show the range of single species of a genus--as the lion, the tiger, the puma, and a species of fox; others are devoted to sections of genera,--as the true wolves; others to genera,--as the hyænas, and the bears; others to portions of families,--as the flying squirrels, and the oxen with the bisons; others to families,--as the Mustelidæ, and the Hystricidæ; and others to groups of families or to orders,--as the Insectivora, and the opossums with the kangaroos.
The Mustelidæ, or weasels, were represented by five genera, the existing genera _Lutra_ (otter) and _Mustela_ (weasel); _Potamotherium_, an extinct form of otter; _Taxodon_, allied to the badger and otter; _Palæomephitis_ in Germany, and the _Promephytis_ (already noticed) in Greece.
Such are Insectivora, Felidæ, Hyænidæ, Mustelidæ, _Ursus_, Equidæ, _Tapirus_, Rhinocerotidæ, Hippopotamidæ, Anthracotheridæ (extinct), _Sus_, Camelopardidæ, Tragulidæ, Cervidæ, Bovidæ, Elephantidæ, and Edentata.
The Procyonidæ are a distinct family of Carnivora, which make up for the scarcity of Mustelidæ in South America.
