416:"In their description of Voalavo, Carleton and Goodman argued that, although closely related, Eliurus and Voalavo form separate monophyletic groups; but a 1999 molecular phylogenetic study by Sharon Jansa and colleagues, who compared cytochrome b sequences among nesomyines and other rodents, found that Voalavo gymnocaudus was more closely related to Eliurus grandidieri than to other species of Eliurus. This finding called into question the separate generic status of Voalavo. However, support for the relationship between V. gymnocaudus and E. grandidieri was relatively weak and Eliurus petteri, a species that is thought to be closely related to E. grandidieri, could not be sampled genetically. Data from nuclear genes also supports the relationship between V. gymnocaudus and E. grandidieri, but E. petteri remains genetically unstudied and the taxonomic issue has not been resolved." 848: 834: 803: 779: 752: 742: 717: 703: 689: 658: 644: 42: 240:
I'll put up some stuff to do here by late wknd. I read and dig and do little nips and tucks first; you may remember the way I do things, though, because I think I reviewed a creature article of yours before... though naturally I'm too cool to remember what it was...lol ;)

Prego! It looks like what you have is fine; if you think further delineation between the two genera is needed, though, add everything you have and we'll fiddle with it all when we get there. Chopping is easier than second guessing. :)
523:"The zygomatic plate, a plate at the sides of the skull that roots the front part of the zygomatic arches (cheekbones), is narrower in Voalavo, and lacks a projection into a clear zygomatic notch, which is present in Eliurus." 194:
Thanks! One point I wasn't sure about when writing the article was whether I need to describe the morphology in a little more detail. What is there now is mainly from the section in Carleton and Goodman (1998) that compares
390:"Before the discoveries of Monticolomys (published in 1996) and Voalavo (1998), all of the known genera within Nesomyinae were quite distinct from each other, so much so that relationships among them long remained obscure." 315:"The two Voalavo species are closely related and quite similar, but differ in various subtle morphological characters (mainly measurements) and by 10% in the sequence of the mitochondrial gene cytochrome b." 265:
Update: Your morphology content is good to go! For now, go through the article and police for disambigs and redirect links... I get monkey nerd picky over fixing those. More stuff ahead :)
