Rattus pelurus

description: Rattus pelurus Sody 1941
Rattus pelurus Sody 1941, Treubia, 18: 308.
Type Locality: Indonesia, Kepulauan Banggai, Pulau Peleng (1°23'S, 123°14'E), east of Sulawesi.
Vernacular Names: Peleng Island Xanthurus Rat.
Distribution: Known only from Peleng Isl.
Conservation: IUCN – Vulnerable.
Discussion: Rattus xanthurus species group. Originally described by Sody as a subspecies of R. foramineus, but provisionally treated as an insular population of R. xanthurus by Musser (1984), and finally reviewed as a distinctive species by Musser and Holden (1991), who also placed it in the R. xanthurus group. Recent morphometric analyses corroborated the separation of pelurus as a different species from mainland R. xanthurus (Musser, ms).

Distribution: New Guinea; on the mainland north of the Central Cordillera from Vogelkop Peninsula throughout N New Guinea to about the Sepik-Ramu drainage in Papua New Guinea, and south of the Cordillera to W Prov. of Papua (= Irian Jaya); sea level to 1900 m; absent from the Trans-Fly region and E Papua New Guinea. Living populations also recorded from Manus Isl in Admiralty Isls; Bougainville and Guadalcanal Isls in the Solomon Isls; Karkar Isl, Blup Blup Isl, Bat Isl, New Britain Isl, and New Ireland Isl in the Bismarck Arch.; and Salawati and Gebe islands off the western tip of Prov. of Papua (= Irian Jaya); found as fossils only on Nissan and Tikopia islands in the Solomons (Emmons and Kinbag, 2001; Flannery, 1995 a, b; Flannery and White, 1991; Taylor et al., 1982). Also recorded from Fiji Isl as a subfossil (K. Aplin, in litt., 2004).
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Rattus leucopus species group. In Tate's (1951) monograph, this species was listed as a subspecies of R. ruber; the holotype of ruber is an example of the introduced R. nitidus (Taylor et al., 1983, summarized the taxonomic history). According to Flannery (1995 b:159), R. praetor "has been introduced prehistorically into most of its insular distribution, reaching New Ireland by 3500 year ago... and the Solomon Islands soon after." Reviewed by Flannery (1995 a, b).

Rattus ranjiniae Agrawal and Ghosal 1969, Proc. Zool. Soc. Calcutta, 22: 41.
Type Locality: SW Indian Peninsula, India, Kerala State, Trivandrum.
Vernacular Names: Ranjini's Rat.
Distribution: Recorded only by specimens collected in rice fields from the districts of Trichur, Alleppy, and Trivandrum in the state of Kerala.
Conservation: IUCN – Vulnerable.
Discussion: Rattus species group unresolved. Still represented by few specimens. Information about the species is meager and contained in the original description and the review by Agrawal (2000). Study of two paratypes kindly loaned to Musser by Dr. S. Chakraborty revealed that R. ranjiniae is characterized by large claws relative to body size, very long and slender hind feet, large body size, long molar rows, small bullae, narrow incisive foramina, and a short bony plate that does not extend past the third molars. These traits combine in a morphology that is unique compared with all other species now placed in Rattus (a conclusion also endorsed by Corbet and Hill, 1992). Phylogenetic relationships of R. ranjiniae are unknown; this species probably should be removed from Rattus.

description: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose levels, due to a defect in insulin secretion or insulin resistance. Hyperglycemia is associated with damage to various organs and systems, such as the kidneys, eyes, nerves, heart, and blood vessels. DM is highly prevalent worldwide, affecting up to 10% of the global population, and it is projected that one in eight adults will have diabetes by 2045.

Hospital admissions are common for diabetic patients, either for conditions unrelated to diabetes or for complications like diabetic ketoacidosis, retinopathy, nephropathy, and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome. Regardless of the reason for hospitalization, proper glucose control is essential to reduce the risk of complications such as infections, electrolyte imbalances, dehydration, and glucosuria.

(Fig. 28)
Paralibrotus Stephensen, 1923: 61.—J.L. Barnard, 1969: 356.— Barnard & Karaman, 1991: 512.
Type species. Paralibrotus setosus Stephensen, 1923, monotypy.
Included species. Paralibrotus includes 1 species: P. setosus Stephensen, 1923
Diagnostic description. Antenna 1 peduncle article 1 without anterodistal lobe; accessory flagellum forming cap covering callynophore. Antenna 2 without brush setae. Mandible molar a weakly setose flap. Maxilla 1 outer plate with 8 well developed setal-teeth in modified 7/4 crown. Maxilla 2 inner plate significantly shorter than outer plate. Gnathopod 1 simple; coxa 1 large, about as long as coxa 2, subrectangular with straight anterior margin; ischium short (length less than 2 × breadth); carpus short (length 1 to 2 × breadth); propodus margins tapering distally. Uropod 2 inner ramus not constricted. Telson entire.
Remarks. Paralibrotus has a number of highly derived characters which make it difficult to characterize. Based on the gnathopod 1 large coxa and short carpus, and an entire telson it is most similar to Onisimus. It differs mainly in the reduced flap-like molar and the simple first gnathopod.

description: В настоящее время изучению лекарственных растений в нашей стране уделяется много внимания. Их исследование ведут с самых различных позиций, начиная от анализа химического состава растительного сырья на содержание биологически активных веществ и клинических испытаний фармакологических препаратов, заканчивая изучением распространения лекарственных растений, запасов их сырья.

Одним из таких растений является рута раскидистая (Ruta divaricata Ten.) – перспективное лекарственное растение семейства Рутовые (Rutaceae). Данный представитель является многолетним травянистым полукустарничком. Произрастает в Средней части Европы, Малой Азии, верхней и средней Италии, в Средиземноморье на территории Балканского полуострова. В Крыму встречается изредка, произрастает в предгорьях и на южном берегу Крыма на сухих склонах.

Рута имеет широкий спектр применения в медицине и в пищевой промышленности, являясь важным источником сырья и исходного материала для селекции. Поэтому R. divaricata входит в коллекции эфиромасличных, пряно-ароматических и лекарственных растений многих научно-исследовательских организаций, но в научной литературе недостаточно сведений о составе и структуре природных популяций, экологической приуроченности вида, отсутствует информация об анатомической структуре вегетативных органов, что затрудняет введение в культуру данного вида.  Цель работы - анализ анатомической структуры надземных вегетативных органов R. divaricata с точки зрения экологической приуроченности.

Экспериментальная часть работы выполнена на базе кафедры ботаники и физиологии растений и биотехнологий Института биохимических технологий, экологии и фармации КФУ им. В. И. Вернадского в 2022-2024 гг. Анатомические исследования выполнены по общепринятым методикам. Исследование анатомии вегетативных органов R. divaricata производилось при помощи микроскопа Olympus CX31RTSF. Объекты фотографировали цифровой камерой Olympus (Camera ToupCam U3CMOS10000KPA).

В результате изучения анатомической структуры листа и побега определены  ксероморфные (утолщение наружных стенок клеток эпидермы, хорошо развитый слой кутикулы, мелкоклетность, невысокая плотность устьиц, их погруженное расположение) и мезоморфные (бифациальность листа, довольно крупные эпидермальные клетки, слабо выражена механическая обкладка проводящих пучков в листовой пластинке и невысокая склерификация вегетативных органов) черты анатомической структуры надземных вегетативных органов растений R. divaricata, обуславливающие принадлежность исследуемого вида к экологической группе эуксерофитов. Растения с эуксерофитной структурной организацией хорошо приспособлены к существованию в условиях дефицита влаги, поэтому R. divaricata можно успешно выращивать в культуре в условиях богары.

Type Locality: New Guinea, Prov. of Papua (= Irian Jaya), northern slopes of Snow Mtns (Pegunungan Maoke), near Lake Habbema, 3225 m.
Vernacular Names: Richardson's New Guinea Mountain Rat.
Distribution: New Guinea, Prov. of Papua (= Irian Jaya); recorded from three areas high in the Snow Mtns: Lake Habbema region, Mt Wilhelmina, and Mt Jaya (Carstensz Range), 3225-4500 m (Flannery, 1995 a; Taylor et al., 1982).
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc) as Stenomys richardsoni.
Discussion: Rattus leucopus species group. Described as an unusual and distinctive member of Rattus, but later provisionally associated with a " niobe group" (Tate, 1951), a relationship supported by multivariate analyses of morphometric variables (Taylor et al., 1982). Most specimens are from tussock grassland and tundra-like habitat (mainly rock or gravel interspersed with mats of herbs and grass tufts), regions that are cold and wet throughout the year (Flannery, 1995 a; Taylor et al., 1982). Taylor et al. (1982) included omichlodes, but Flannery (1995 a) correctly removed it from synonymy (see that account).

Rattus salocco Tate and Archbold 1935, Am. Mus. Novit., 802: 7.
Type Locality: Indonesia, SE peninsula of Sulawesi, Pegunungan Mekongga (= Mengkoka), Tanke Salokko (highest point on Pengunungan), 03 o 35'S / 121 o 15'E, 1500 m.
Vernacular Names: Southeastern Xanthurus Rat.
Synonyms: Rattus orientalis (Revilliod 1911).
Distribution: SE Peninsula; recorded from Tanke Salokko and in lowlands at Mowewe (03 o 57'S / 121 o 43'E), 300 m.
Discussion: Rattus xanthurus species group. Described as a species by Tate and Archbold, but subsequently usually included in R. xanthurus (e. g., Musser and Carleton, 1993). Musser (ms) demonstrated that the species is most closely related to R. marmosurus of C and N Sulawesi, and documented the synonymy of orientalis. See account of Taeromys arcuatus for information on the biogeographic pattern exhibited by this and other species pairs on Sulawesi.

description: Rattus sanila Flannery and White 1991
Rattus sanila Flannery and White 1991, Nat. Geog. Res. Explor., 7: 102.
Type Locality: Bismarck Arch., New Ireland, Balof, site 2.
Vernacular Names: New Ireland Forest Rat.
Distribution: Apparently endemic to New Ireland.
Discussion: Rattus species group unresolved. Represented only by subfossil fragments dated at 3000 years before present and older (late Pleistocene to mid-Holocene), but may still occur in primary forest, which has not been adequately sampled. Flannery and White (1991) described sanila as a subspecies of R. mordax, but most dental measurements of sanila exceed and do not overlap those of even the largest known R. mordax, suggesting the former to be a separate species, which even Flannery and White acknowledged (also see Flannery, 1995 b). Recent taxonomic and stratigraphic analysis of rodent remains from New Ireland and Manus Isl has confirmed the specific status of sanila (K. P. Aplin and M. Leavesley, in litt., 2004). Although originally phylogenetically allied with R. mordax (Flannery and White, 1991), K. Aplin (in litt., 2004) noted that upper molars of R. sanila "... are very complex in comparison with typical New Guinea Rattus," and he suspects the species may be a relict of an archaic, and original, dispersal of ancestral Rattus stock to New Guinea and Australia.

Rattus satarae Hinton 1918, J. Bombay Nat. Hist. Soc., 26: 87.
Type Locality: SW Peninsular India, E margin of Western Ghats (= Sahyadris), Maharashtra State, Satara Dist., Ghatmatha (Crestline), 2000 ft (610 m).
Vernacular Names: Sahyadris Forest Rat.
Distribution: Endemic to the Western Ghats and occurring in tropical evergreen rain forest. Records are from N part of the Western Ghats at and near the type locality (Hinton, 1918; Tiwari et al., 1971) and Nilgiri Hills (Tamil Nadu State) in the south (Verneau et al., 1997), which approximates the extent of tropical evergreen rain forest along the SW mountainous margin of SW peninsular India (see Morley, 2000:162); altitudinal range, 1500-2150 m (from data with specimens). Although wet, tropical forests once occurred along the length of the Western Ghats (Subramanyam and Nayer, 1974), they are presently reduced to small, isolated patches through conversion to agriculture and plantations (Chandrasekar-Rao and Sunquist, 1996); these forest islands between Satara region and Nilgiri Hills probably also contain R. satarae.

Rattus simalurensis Miller 1903, Proc. U. S. Natl. Mus., 26: 458.
Type Locality: Indonesia, Sumatra, Pulau Simeulue (Simalur).
Vernacular Names: Simalur Archipelago Rat.
Synonyms: Rattus babi Lyon 1916; Rattus lasiae Lyon 1916.
Distribution: Simalur Isl and nearby islands of Siumat, Lasia, and Babi.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Rattus rattus species group. The form simalurensis and its two synonyms were each listed as a separate subspecies of R. rattus by Chasen (1940), but simalurensis is distinct from R. rattus and in morphology represents larger-bodied island variants of R. tiomanicus (Musser, 1986; Musser and Califia, 1982; Musser and Heaney, 1985); simalurensis, babi, and lasiae were included in R. tiomanicus by Corbet and Hill (1992). Whether populations on the Simalur islands are distinct species or insular representatives of R. tiomanicus that occur off the margin of the continental shelf will have to be determined by systematic revision of the R. tiomanicus complex. Recent morphometric analyses indicate R. simalurensis to be more closely tied to R. burrus (Nicobar Isls), R. lugens (Mentawai Arch.), and R. adustus (Pulau Enggano) than to R. tiomanicus (Musser, ms).

Distribution: Australia: E coast from tip of Cape York to NE New South Wales, and some off-shore islands (see Watts and Aslin, 1981:239, and Redhead, 1995 b:662). New Guinea: lowlands south of Central Cordillera from Dobodura in E Papua New Guinea west and north to Koembe in Prov. of Papua (= Irian Jaya); sea level to 670 m (see Taylor et al., 1983:265, and Flannery, 1995 a:335); also on Yule Isl, off the coast of SE Papua (Flannery, 1995 b).
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (nt).
Discussion: Rattus fuscipes species group. One of the two species of native Rattus in the New Guinea-Australian region that occurs on both land masses. On morphological evidence, Taylor and Horner (1973) arranged villosissimus and colletti as subspecies of R. sordidus. Later evaluations, however, using chromosomal, biochemical, and hybridization data, suggested the three should be viewed as separate species in the same monophyletic cluster (Baverstock et al., 1977 d, 1983 a, 1986), which is the way they are treated in current faunal accounts and catalogs (Mahoney and Richardson, 1988; Redhead, 1995 b; Watts and Aslin, 1981).

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Rattus leucopus species group. Until Taylor et al.'s (1982) revision, the distinctness of R. steini was obscured by its historical allocation at different times as a subspecies of R. leucopus, R. mordax, R. ringens (= R. leucopus), R. ruber (= R. nitidus), and Stenomys verecundus.

Discussion: Rattus rattus species group. Despite past confusion with Sundamys muelleri, R. stoicus is defined by a unique set of derived and primitive features and is endemic to the Andaman Isls (Musser and Heaney, 1985; Musser and Newcomb, 1983). Its closest phylogenetic ally within the R. rattus species complex has yet to be determined (Musser, 1986).

Diagnostic description. Antenna 1 peduncle article 1 without anterodistal lobe; accessory flagellum not forming cap covering callynophore. Antenna 2 with weakly developed brush setae. Mandible molar a setose tongue with vestigial triturating area, a reduced column with a triturating surface or occasionally a raised weakly setose plate. Maxilla 1 outer plate a well developed 7/4 crown. Maxilla 2 inner plate slightly shorter than outer plate. Gnathopod 1 chelate; coxa 1 reduced, significantly shorter than coxa 2, subquadrate or tapering distally; ischium long (length 2 × to 4 × breadth) to very long (length 4 × to 6 × breadth); carpus very long (length more than 4 × breadth); propodus margins subparallel. Uropod 2 inner ramus not constricted. Telson deeply cleft.
Remarks. Only three uristid genera, Euonyx, Kyska and Stephonyx have chelate first gnathopods. Kyska differs from Euonyx and Stephonyx in having a fully developed gnathopod 1 coxa (significantly reduced in Euonyx and Stephonyx). Stephonyx is a genus of scavengers with fully developed 7/4 crown of setal-teeth on the outer plate of maxilla 1 whereas Euonyx is a genus of ectoparasitic amphipod with strongly reduced (small) setal-teeth on the outer plate of maxilla 1.
