GENUS Dasyurus
| Author: | É. Geoffroy, 1796. | | Citation: | Mag. Encyclop., ser. 2, 3: 469. | | Type Species: | Didelphis maculata Anon., 1791 (= Didelphis viverrina Shaw, 1800). | | Comments: | See Haltenorth (1958:20). Archer (1982) revived Satanellus (for albopunctatus and hallucatus), as he considered that the remaining species might belong in a clade with Sarcophilus; but Krajewski et al. (1997a), using molecular data, confirmed that Dasyurus is monophyletic. |
