Mammal Species of the World
We are currently developing a new and improved online query and export facility for the updated Mammal Species of the World, 3rd Edition (MSW3). We expect to launch the new application in late 2008. In the meantime, the MSW3 authors in collaboration with Bucknell University have created an interim query presentation at: http://www.bucknell.edu/msw3/.
Also, the new complete list of species as recognized in MSW3 are available from the following:
