Fulvous is a colour, sometimes described as dull orange, brownish-yellow or tawny; it can also be likened to a variation of buff, beige or butterscotch. As an adjective it is used in the names of many species of birds, and occasionally other animals, to describe their appearance. It is also used as in mycology to describe fungi with greater colour specificity, specifically the pigmentation of the surface cuticle, the broken flesh and the spores en masse. The first recorded use of fulvous as a colour name in English was in the year 1664.“Fulvous” entry in Merriam-Webster online dictionary: Fulvous in English is derived from the Latin "fulvus", a term that can recognised in the scientific binomials of several species, and can provide a clue to their colouration.

On the fringes of its distribution (west, north and south), however, the barred owl may overlap slightly in range with other species from the Strix genus, which all share the same general form. A close cousin, the fulvous owl (Strix fulvescens), may range north into Mexico where the southernmost barred owls may persist, however so far as is known, their respective distributions are entirely and considerably allopatric. The fulvous owl is similar to a barred owl but is slightly smaller with richer, fulvous tones in plumage, cinnamon tail bands and a pale, plain facial disc without darker concentric lines.Howell, S.

If seen at a distance, immature comb ducks can also be mistaken for a fulvous whistling duck (Dendrocygna bicolor). However, knob-billed ducks in immature plumage are rarely seen without adults nearby and thus they are usually easily identified, too. Uncertainty surrounds the correct systematic placement of this species. Initially, it was placed in the dabbling duck subfamily Anatinae.
|
|
The length of the shell varies between 7 mm and 13 mm. The helicoid shell is widely umbilicated, fulvous, punctate with red. The 6½ whorls are convex and somewhat loosely rolled on themselves which causes the sutures to very deep. They are traversed by spiral granulose cinguli ornamented with red dots, and alternately larger and smaller.
|
|
The forewings are pale glaucous grey. The costa is white with a fulvous streak below it and there is a fuscous subbasal shade from the cell to the inner margin, followed by a whitish band. There is also a quadrate semihyaline white spot just beyond the discocellulars. The hindwings are pale glaucous grey with a semihyaline white basal area.
|
|
The forewings are purple bronzy fuscous, darker towards the base of the costa and with the costal edge suffused with fulvous ochreous from one- third to near the apex. There is an indistinct darker transverse mark on the end of the cell and a dark fuscous terminal line. The hindwings are rather dark grey.Meyrick, Edward (1912–1916).

In 1970 it was classified as a subspecies of the barred owl, Strix varia, but it is generally recognized as a separate species today, although some researchers consider it part of a superspecies, along with the barred owl and possibly the spotted owl, Strix occidentalis. The fulvous owl is sometimes known as the Guatemalan barred owl.
|
|
The fulvous owl is found in highland regions in the Mexican states of Chiapas Oaxaca, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador. Its existence in Oaxaca was reported in 1950, but locations from which the specimens were collected had been challenged. The species was confirmed to exist in Oaxaca in 2011. Its range is poorly known, but thought to be large.

The chicks are patterned in black and white This chestnut brown duck is confusable only with the fulvous whistling duck (D. bicolor) but has chestnut upper-tail coverts unlike the creamy white in the latter. The ring around the eye is orange to yellow. When flying straight, their head is held below the level of the body as in other Dendrocygna species.
|
|
When hydrated, the cap color is orange-red to yellow-brown; the color fades to reddish yellow, gold-colored, or tawny when dry. The cap flesh is the same color as the cap surface. The gills are slightly adnexed and seceding, and crowded closely together. They are initially pallid before becoming fulvous to deep reddish-yellow, slightly spotted, and shining.

Perhaps Mary Fisher's most important role came towards the end of her father's life (1963) when she took over the management of Dixiana. The farm continued to prosper and continued to produce great runners such as Red Cross, Fulvous and Fulcrum (Breeders' Futurity Stakes 1957). In 1986 Dixiana was once again sold after a legacy of 58 years within the Fisher family.

The fulvous owl (Strix fulvescens), or Guatemala barred owl, is a resident of the cloud forests of Central America. A medium-sized true owl, it has a round head, lacking ear tufts. Typical coloration is warm dark brown or reddish brown on the back and lighter brown on the front with darker barring. Adults weigh approximately , with females being heavier.
|
|
Chicks are whitish, while juveniles are cinnamon-brown with yellowish or white barring and a brownish facial disc. The species is visually most similar to the barred owl, found in Mexico, Canada, and the United States. The barred owl is more gray above and more white below. The fulvous owl is approximately one-fifth smaller than the Mexican variant of the barred owl.

It is found in northern Africa south to the Sahel region and occurs in Algeria, Chad, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan, and Tunisia. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry shrubland. The fulvous babbler was formerly placed in the genus Turdoides but following the publication of a comprehensive molecular phylogenetic study in 2018, it was moved to the resurrected genus Argya.
|
|
The species was first described in 1849 by the English zoologist Edward Blyth, who was curator of the museum of the Royal Asiatic Society of Bengal. He named it Dryobates atratus, but it was later transferred to the genus Dendrocopos. It forms a species-pair with the fulvous-breasted woodpecker (Dendrocopos macei). Birds in Vietnam are sometimes considered to be a separate race, vietnamensis, but the evidence for this is unconvincing.

|
There is no sexual dimorphism in this species. Similar species are the plains harvest mouse, which has a more distinct but narrower stripe on its spine, and the fulvous harvest mouse, which has a longer tail. Also similar is the salt marsh harvest mouse, which has an underbelly fur that is more pinkish cinnamon to tawny. Finally, the house mouse has incisors without grooves, unlike those of the western harvest mouse.

Doi Ang Khang Mountain - Thailand Illustration of a male P. a. aeralatus Blyth's shrike-babbler is sexually dimorphic. There are many variations between the populations and some are more distinctive than others but they may not be easy to diagnose in the field. In general appearance it is very similar to the Himalayan shrike-babbler but all subspecies with the exception of validirostris have the tertials of males partly coloured rufous and partly fulvous.
|
|
The forewings of the males are pale fulvous, crossed by waved transverse basal, transverse median, transverse limbal and submarginal lines, which are produced on the hindwings. The transverse limbal line is accentuated externally on both wings by a series of small elongated whitish spots, the most conspicuous being the one nearest the apex, and those nearer the inner margins of the wings. Females are much larger than the males. Furthermore, the wings are darker reddish.

The call of the fulvous owl is described as a loud barking hoot, rendered as "who-wuhu-woot-woot" or "a'hoo a'hoo-hoo a'hoo, hoo": the number of notes is variable. The rhythm of the call has been likened to that of Morse code. The call of the female is higher in pitch, and is sometimes uttered in a duet with the male. The call lacks the terminal note of the barred owl call.

Inocybe maculata is similar to the variable Inocybe lacera, the split fibrecap, but it can be differentiated by the darker colouration of the cap, and the white remains of the veil in the centre of the cap. The species is also similar in appearance to Inocybe lanatodisca, but can be readily distinguished by odour (I. lanatodisca has a characteristic sweet, green-corn smell) and the colour of the cap (I. lanatodisca has a fulvous cap).

The fulvous harvest mouse is nocturnal. In Arkansas, animals began to deposit fat in their tissues in November and this peaks in January and then the fat reserves are steadily used up by April. Other adaptations to winter include a lengthening of the animal's hair and a possible daily reduction of its body temperature during sleep in the daytime. The animal quickly recovers from hypothermia and resumes activity when it warms up.

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are ferruginous with a deep yellow blotch occupying the basal two-fifths, except the costal third, its outer edge convex and extended to the costa as a slender streak, a light ferruginous line crosses this blotch at one-fourth of the wing, terminating in its dorsal angle. There is a short oblique white strigula on the costa at three-fourths. The hindwings are coppery fulvous.
|
|
The forewings are orange-yellow, the medial area suffused with fulvous except the costal area and the inner margin. The costal edge is black and there is a hyaline spot from the middle of the cell to above vein 1, connected with a hyaline point beyond it in the cell. There is a yellow point at the upper angle of the cell and a hyaline spot beyond. There is also an indistinct diffused waved subterminal line.

Birds recorded from the reserve include the fulvous whistling duck, blue- winged teal, osprey, wattled jacana, black-necked stilt, cocoi heron, striated heron, anhinga and neotropic cormorant. Of special interest are the grayish piculet, apical flycatcher, bar-crested antshrike and the scrub tanager. The reserve also supports the only remaining population of the horned screamer in the region. Mammals found there include common opossum, Pallas's long-tongued bat, common vampire bat, tapeti, capybara, and nine-banded armadillo.

The fulvous whistling duck feeds in wetlands by day or night on seeds and other parts of plants. It is sometimes regarded as a pest of rice cultivation, and is also shot for food in parts of its range. Despite hunting, poisoning by pesticides and natural predation by mammals, birds, and reptiles, the large numbers and huge range of this duck mean that it is classified as least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature.

The average male weighs and the average female . Their fur color is predominantly light gray and red or fulvous interspersed with black and white, though it varies somewhat with geography. It is highly flexible in social organization, living either in a family unit or in loosely knit packs of unrelated individuals. Primarily carnivorous, its diet consists mainly of deer, rabbits, hares, rodents, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates, though it may also eat fruits and vegetables on occasion.

There is a slender fulvous- ochreous streak along the costa throughout, sometimes suffused with dark fuscous towards the base. An oblique dark fuscous streak is found from the dorsum near the base, reaching nearly to the costa. The first discal stigma is moderate and blackish, the plical very small and dark fuscous, slightly beyond it. There is a somewhat inwards-curved dark fuscous streak from beneath three- fourths of the costa to four-fifths of the dorsum.

The cell-spot is large, ear shaped, dark chestnut and edged with silvery scales. There is a blotch of silvery scales at the base of the cell, with a line of the same colour along the middle of cell, through, the cell-spot, and broadening beyond it. There is also a silvery submarginal line, incurved at the middle, then parallel to the hindmargin. The marginal line is silvery and the fringe and costal edge before the apex are fulvous.

Abdominal colouration distinguishes Z. mima from Trigonospila; the abdomen is largely brown or fulvous-yellow on the sides of the abdomen with a broad black stripe extending along the dorsal surface of the abdomen, terminating about the fourth segment. Z. mima is also easily distinguished from Trigonospila by other characters, including a heavy suffusion of black or brown along the wing margin, giving the appearance of a brown stripe adjacent to the wing margin and much longer antennae.

The forewings are leaden grey sprinkled dark fuscous, with a broad irregular ochreous dorsal stripe from the base to the tornus, on the anterior half partially suffused with grey whitish and interrupted by an irregular pale silvery spot posteriorly. There is a small blackish spot on the base of the costa and an oblique dark fuscous spot above the dorsal stripe towards the base, and an oblique dark fuscous fasciate streak from the costa at one-third, terminating in an indentation of the dorsal stripe, black at the apex and white-edged posteriorly (plical stigma). The discal stigmata are black, approximated, the first obliquely beyond the plical, the dorsal stripe reaching these, a spot of silvery suffusion between the discal stigmata, and an ochreous-fulvous spot above the second, above this some dark fuscous suffusion along the costa. There is a black mark before the apex, preceded by a small ochreous-fulvous spot, some indistinct irregular silvery marking around these and dots on the apical and terminal margin.

It is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds (AEWA) applies. The fulvous whistling duck has expanded its range in the West Indies, and into the southern US.Madge & Burn (1988) pp. 126–127. A series of invasions from South America and reaching the eastern US commenced around 1948, fueled by rice cultivation, and breeding was recorded in Cuba in 1964, and Florida in 1965. Some Florida birds still winter in Cuba.

The crown is boarded by a black stripe extending from in front of the eyes until the gray auriculars. The tail and wings are blackish with the primaries margined slightly with a grayish external. There is a slight fulvous or tawny tint to the remiges most external parts. One important note is that the Cuzco brushfinch shows considerable variation with the intensity of gray in the underparts - some almost uniformly dark gray below and others that are pale gray with grayish-white abdomens.

Young birds with the nigripennis mutation are creamy white with fulvous tipped wings. The gene produces melanism in the male and in the peahen it produces a dilution of colour with creamy white and brown markings. Other variations include the pied and white forms all of which are the result of allelic variation at specific loci. Cross between a male green peafowl, Pavo muticus and a female Indian peafowl, P. cristatus, produces a stable hybrid called a "spalding", named after Mrs.

Little Farmer's Cay is an island in the Bahamas, located in the district of Black Point. The island had a population of 66 at the 2010 census. Each year, the island hosts the Farmer's Cay First Friday in February Festival, a sailing regatta. Butterfly species found on the island include the fulvous hairstreak (Electrostrymon angelia), scrub hairstreak (Strymon columella), martial hairstreak (Strymon martialis), long-tailed skipper (Urbanus proteus), broken dash skipper (Wallengrenia misera) and the Gulf fritillary (Agraulis vanillae insularis).

Another deep blue angulated line passes around the costal blotch and terminates in the subapical spot. There is a small whitish wedge-shaped spot edged dark fuscous on the subapical sinuation and there are two dark fuscous striae (stripes) confluent into a spot above from before the apex of this spot to the tornus, as well as two round blackish dots before the termen about the middle. The hindwings are fulvous (tawny coloured), beyond a curved dark fuscous subterminal streak reddish- orange.Exotic Microlep.

|
The fulvous suffusion of the median area extends beyond the outer line as far as its elbow. The veins beyond the outer line are finely black. The apical two thirds of the marginal space is steel-blue, iridescent and white close to the outer line and yellowish along the costa. The hindwings are white with an irregular velvety-black fascia close to the base and a curved dark grey shade from the discal spot to the middle of the hind margin with the veins within it blackish.

The fulvous whistling duck forms a superspecies with the wandering whistling duck. It has no recognised subspecies, although the birds in northern Mexico and the southern US have in the past been assigned to D. b. helva, described as having paler and brighter underparts and a lighter crown than D. b. bicolor. The duck was first described by Johann Friedrich Gmelin in 1789 and given the name Anas fulva but the name was "preoccupied," or already used, by Friedrich Christian Meuschen in 1787 for another species.

The burns help invigorate the grasses by removing dead stems and control the growth of brush and invasive species of plants. The staff also converts formerly cultivated land in the refuge back to prairie by replanting native grasses. Over 250 species of birds in addition to the Attwater's prairie chicken have been observed in the refuge. Some of these include the fulvous whistling duck, black-bellied whistling duck, white-tailed hawk, northern caracara, scissor-tailed flycatcher, dickcissel, roseate spoonbill, anhinga, Sprague's pipit, and sandhill crane.

The forewings are white tinged with ochreous yellow and faintly irrorated with grey, the costa is pure white, except at the base which is fulvous. There is a faint oblique grey antemedial line and a slight white discoidal striga. The postmedial line is indistinct, grey, oblique from vein 8 to the discal fold, bent outwards from vein 5 to below 3, then retracted to below the angle of the cell and oblique and sinuous to the inner margin. The hindwings are white, faintly tinged with ochreous and irrorated with grey.

The forewings are orange-yellow, the costa tinged with fulvous. There is a broad terminal red-brown band and an indistinct curved brown antemedial line, as well as a small brown spot in the middle of the cell and larger discoidal spot. The postmedial line is brown, strong and obliquely incurved from the costa to the terminal band at vein 5, at vein 2 retracted to below the end of the cell and erect to the inner margin. The hindwings are orange-yellow with a broad brown terminal band.

A 1996 report identified 20 special status species from various surveys (dates not specified): California brown pelican, southern bald eagle, peregrine falcon, snowy plover, common loon, American white pelican, double-crested cormorant, white-faced ibis, fulvous whistling duck, harlequin duck, northern harrier, golden eagle, osprey, long-billed curlew, California gull, elegant tern, and black skimmer. Those with specified dates included Belding's Savannah sparrow (1994), and California horned lark (1995). The 1996 report identified the following mammals from a 1983 survey; pallid bat, American badger, and the San Diego black-tailed jackrabbit.

There is a rather oblique slightly curved ochreous-whitish streak from before the middle of the dorsum, attenuated upwards, reaching two-thirds across the wing. There is a transverse series of six short longitudinal ochreous-whitish lines on the veins about three- fourths, becoming longer downwards, and a seventh on the dorsum. A coppery- metallic transverse line is found from four-fifths of the costa to tornus, obtusely angulated above the middle, the extremities whitish. There is a fulvous streak just beyond this, sending a branch into the apical projection, the lower portion terminal.

In flight, the beating wings produce a dull sound. The calls of males and females show differences in structure and an acoustic analysis on 59 captive birds demonstrated 100% accuracy in sexing when compared with molecular methods. Adult birds in Asia can be confused with the similar lesser whistling duck, which is smaller, has a blackish crown and lacks an obvious dark stripe down the back of the neck. Juvenile fulvous whistling ducks are very like young lesser whistling ducks, but the crown colour is still a distinction.
|
|
Fulvous whistling ducks show lifelong monogamy; the courtship display is limited to some mutual head-dipping before mating and a short dance after copulation in which the birds raise their bodies side-by-side while treading water. Pairs may breed alone or in loose groups. In South Africa, nests may be within of each other, and breeding densities of up to 13.7 nests per square kilometre (35.5 per square mile) have been found in Louisiana. The nest, across, is made from plant leaves and stems and has little or no soft lining.

Coyotes living at high elevations tend to have more black and gray shades than their desert-dwelling counterparts, which are more fulvous or whitish-gray. The coyote's fur consists of short, soft underfur and long, coarse guard hairs. The fur of northern subspecies is longer and denser than in southern forms, with the fur of some Mexican and Central American forms being almost hispid (bristly). Generally, adult coyotes (including coywolf hybrids) have a sable coat color, dark neonatal coat color, bushy tail with an active supracaudal gland, and a white facial mask.

The wingspan is 32–38 mm. The length of the forewings is 13–16 mm. Forewing dull dark fuscous with a greyish tinge; inner and outer lines obscure, double, the arms far apart; subterminal line grey, with dark suffusion on inner side; orbicular and reniform cloudy fuscous, the latter with a slight fulvous stain on its outer edge at middle; hindwing dull whitish; the cellspot, the veins towards termen, and a slight subterminal line grey.Seitz, A. Ed., 1914 Die Großschmetterlinge der Erde, Verlag Alfred Kernen, Stuttgart Band 3: Abt.

Upwards of 170 native bird species have been recorded, but the presence or breeding of some have been transient, due to urbanization and other factors. Resident or visiting passerine birds include thick-billed weaver, southern red bishop, African reed-warbler, little rush-warbler and lesser swamp-warbler. Various heron species visit the reserve, including black-crowned night-heron, little bittern, green-backed heron, purple heron, black and little egret. Other regular water birds are red-knobbed coot, fulvous duck, Egyptian goose, white-faced duck, Cape teal and southern pochard.

The forewings are light fulvous ochreous, slightly sprinkled with dark fuscous, the costa more irrorated (sprinkled) with dark fuscous, more strongly and suffusedly towards the base. There is a moderate dark purple-fuscous basal patch, widened upwards but not reaching the costa. The plical and first discal stigmata are cloudy and rather dark fuscous, with the plical rather obliquely posterior and the second discal and a spot on the dorsum united to form an irregular nearly direct rather dark purplish-fuscous streak. The hindwings are light ochreous grey.

The primary and greater coverts as well as the secondaries are a fulvous-brown edged in rufous, while the primaries are a dark brown with the longest feathers being tipped in black. The bleeding-heart's underwings are chestnut. The back down to the upper portion of the tail is a ruddy-brown narrowly fringed with metallic green or violet. The center of the tail is dark brown while the edges are ashy-gray and tipped with a broad black band; the undertail-coverts are orange while the undertail is ashy-gray.

There is a fresh water artesian well that is 97 meters deep creating an oasis of date-producing palm trees where birds such as fulvous whistling duck, grey pelicans and American white pelicans live as well as grey herons, cranes and albatross. Other species of birds seen in the island are turnstones, spoonbills, skimmers, waders, and other shorebirds, gulls, terns, frigatebirds, and boobies. Along the island's fine sandy beach and the almost flat slopped ocean, in its large Tobari bay, tourists fish for mullets, sea bass, and two species of the genus Epinephelus.

Nesting colonies of wading birds such as ibis, roseate spoonbills, and egrets, alligators, and furbearers such as mink, otter, and raccoon and nutria are found on the refuge. Threatened and endangered species that have used the refuge include bald eagles, peregrine falcons, and Louisiana black bear. Several hundred thousand ducks and geese use the refuge as wintering habitat while wood ducks, fulvous and black- bellied whistling ducks, and mottled ducks nest on the refuge during the breeding season. The refuge offers fishing, hunting, boating, wildlife observation, and hiking.

The diet of the fulvous harvest mouse varies seasonally, but in milder climates, consists primarily of insects and other invertebrates throughout the year, whereas in colder regions, invertebrates predominate in the spring, and seeds in the fall and winter. A small proportion of green leafy and other plant food is also eaten. Predators of this mouse include barn owls (Tyto alba) and red-tailed hawks (Buteo jamaicensis). In Mexico, breeding seems to take place throughout the year, but in Texas, usually two breeding peaks occur, one in late spring and the second a few months later.

The birds migrate across Himalayas from Tibet, China, Europe and Siberia during winters. Some of these birds fly over 5000 km and above 8500 meters high to reach here. Some of the major migratory birds during the season are greylag goose, northern pintail, cotton teal, red-crested pochard, gadwall, northern shoveler, Eurasian coot and mallard. Some major local migratory and residential birds are sarus crane, painted stork, Indian peafowl, white ibis, little grebe, fulvous whistling duck, Asian openbill, white-necked stork, pheasant-tailed jacana, bronze winged jacana, grey-headed swamphen, northern lapwing, black drongo and Indian roller.

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are light ferruginous brownish, posteriorly deeper and becoming dark ferruginous fuscous on the costal half, the costal edge dark fuscous and with an oblique yellowish transverse blotch from the costa before the middle, reaching half across the wing, cut obliquely by a ferruginous line. There is a fine whitish line along the costa from the middle to near three-fourths, and a patch of whitish irroration near beyond this, where a series of several indistinct whitish dots runs towards the tornus. The hindwings are light yellow ochreous, suffused with greyish fulvous towards the apex.

Common gallinule (middle) and blue-winged teals in the refuge 397 bird species have been documented within the park's borders. Many of those are migratory species on their way to and from Central and South America. A few species to be found there are black-bellied whistling-duck, fulvous whistling-duck, mottled duck, blue-winged teal, green-winged teal, cinnamon teal, least grebe, anhinga, tricolored heron, white ibis, lesser yellowlegs, long-billed dowitcher, and least tern. The Old Cemetery on the grounds of the refuge predates the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo Osprey, broad- winged hawk, northern harrier, and peregrine falcon are among the migratory birds of prey found in the refuge.

Observations of the bird outside the nesting season, especially since the 1950s have been recorded in temperate regions as far north as the Mississippi River Basin, eastern Great Lakes region, and along the Pacific and Atlantic Coasts right up to southern Canada. Wandering birds can turn up far beyond the normal range, sometimes staying to nest, as in Morocco, Peru and Hawaii. The fulvous whistling duck is found in lowland marshes and swamps in open, rice fields, flat country, and it avoids wooded areas. It is not normally a mountain species, breeding in Venezuela, for example, only up , but the single Peruvian breeding record was at .

|
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) estimates the population of the fulvous whistling duck to be from 1.3–1.5 million individuals around the world. This may be an underestimate since regional assessments suggest 1 million birds in the Americas, 1.1 million in Africa and at least 20,000 in South Asia for a grand total of 2.12 million ducks around the world. The population appears to be declining, but the decrease is not rapid enough to trigger the vulnerability criteria for extinction. The large numbers and huge breeding range mean that this duck is classified by the IUCN as being of Least Concern.

The Virginia Aquarium Aviary was a half-acre habitat located behind the March Pavilion, and was home to 70 birds of about 30 species including a great horned owl, turkey vultures, great blue herons, brown pelicans, Fulvous whistling duck, great egrets, and ruddy ducks. Many of the birds had been injured and rehabilitated, and could not be released back into the wild. The aviary was badly damaged by a storm in the winter of 2015: though no birds were killed, most had to be dispersed to other wildlife centers. At the moment there is a crow and osprey on exhibit, with others off exhibit but used for educational programs.

Mammals: The park has a number of small mammals including the red panda, leopard cat, barking deer, yellow- throated marten, wild boar, pangolin and pika. Larger mammals include the Himalayan black bear, leopard, clouded leopard, serow and takin. Tigers occasionally wander into the area, but do not have a large enough prey base to make residence in these forests feasible. Birds: The park is a birder's delight with over 120 species recorded including many rare and exotic species like the Himalayan Vulture, scarlet minivet, kalij pheasant, blood pheasant, satyr tragopan, brown and fulvous parrotbills, rufous-vented tit, and Old World babblers like the fire-tailed myzornis and the golden-breasted fulvetta.

The wingspan is 17–18 mm. The forewings are bronzy-ochreous brown, mostly concealed by mixed white and dark fuscous suffusion, indicating various irregular but very undefined markings. There is a white trapezoidal blotch on the costa before the middle, the outer edge very oblique, margined by a leaden-metallic streak. Beyond this are two very oblique parallel streaks from the costa, separated from it and from each other by fulvous interspaces, the first violet-leaden metallic, white on the costa, black-edged posteriorly, dilated downwards, terminating in an elongate-oval violet-leaden-metallic spot in the disc, the second white, terminating in the same spot.
|
|
There is an oblique subbasal silvery-white band from the cell to the inner margin, with some red brown before it. There is also some dark brown on the costa before the antemedial silvery-white band, which is interrupted in the cell, oblique towards the costa and below the cell and defined by red brown. The cell is suffused with red brown except towards the base and there is a fulvous lunule at the end of the cell defined by dark brown and with some white beyond it. The fovea above the end of the cell are white defined by dark brown and with a silvery-white point above it on the costa.

As would be expected of a mouse native to salt marshes, this species is a competent swimmer and is tolerant of salt in its diet and water supply. It eats seeds and plants, especially pickleweed and glasswort, one of the most common salt marsh plant species. Similar species are the Plains Harvest Mouse, and the Fulvous Harvest Mouse, which has a longer tail. The species co-occurs with the similar Western harvest mouse, which tends to have dorsal fur that is more gray than R. raviventris and with ventral fur that is white to grayish; and the House mouse which is gray, has a scaly tail and incisors without grooves, unlike those of the salt marsh harvest mouse.

The forewings are blackish fuscous with violet-blue-metallic markings and with a streak along the costa from the base to one-third, then continued obliquely downwards to below the middle of the disc. There is a subdorsal streak from the base to near the middle and there is a spot on the dorsum at two-thirds, as well as a somewhat oblique slightly curved irregular fascia from two-thirds of the costa, reaching two-thirds of the way across the wing. There is an irregular fascia immediately before the termen, tending to be broken into three or four spots and the termen is tinged with fulvous, with a black marginal line. The hindwings are dark fuscous.

The forewings are pale fulvous irrorated (sprinkled) with dark fuscous and with the costa, fold, and dorsum irrorated with whitish towards the base. There are two dark fuscous dots beneath the costa near the base and a triangular dark fuscous blotch occupying the median third of the costa, reaching halfway across wing, partially edged with whitish suffusion. four violet-whitish oblique strigulae are found on the costa posteriorly and there is a pale violet inwardly oblique mark from the tornus, as well as an outwardly oblique mark from the termen below the middle, and two small marks in the disc above these. A black dash rests on the termen beneath the apex.

The yellow-nosed cotton rat does not compete well with other species of cotton rats, such as the white-eared cotton rat (Sigmodon leucotis), and where their ranges overlap, it occupies thinly vegetated, rocky slopes with tussocks of grass. In Arizona, it is often found on open slopes among scattered Emory oak, Arizona oak, alligator juniper, yucca, agave, mimosa, sugar sumac, prickly pear, and desert spoon. These plants often have long foliage growing at their bases, and the cotton rat uses these for cover. It shares its habitat with the fulvous harvest mouse (Reithrodontomys fulvescens) and southern pocket gopher (Thomomys umbrinus) and uses the burrows of the latter, as well as cavities under boulders.

The forewings are lilac grey partially sprinkled with brownish and with the costa slenderly dull rosy from the base to three-fourths. The extreme edge is ochreous and the markings are fulvous brown, consisting of a short irregular transverse line in the disc at one-fifth, a rather curved irregular transverse streak before the middle from towards the costa to beneath the fold, a dot beyond the apex of this, a slender irregular streak on the transverse vein, an irregular undefined transverse shade near beyond this, not crossing the costal streak, and a similar irregular shade from the costa at four-fifths to the tornus. There is also a marginal series of black triangular dots around the apical part of the costa and termen. The hindwings are grey.

The whole wing is strewn with small tufts of raised iridescent blackish scales, edged pale ochreous and arranged in irregular transverse series. The costal edge is irregularly spotted dark fuscous and there is a longitudinal dark fuscous streak, concave above, resting on the median portion of the edge of the fuscous dorsal area. A subquadrate blackish spot edged and cut longitudinally by pale ochreous is found between veins 5 and 7 towards the termen, including a violet-silvery dot in the lower posterior angle and a speck in the upper part anteriorly, and surrounded by fuscous suffusion. There is also a prismatic-silvery line with bright deep blue reflection just before the margin around apex and termen to near the tornus, the margin beyond this fulvous with the edge silvery with dark leaden reflection.

C. rumicis L. (3i). Forewing dark grey, varied in places with whitish; lines and shades black; outer line marked by a white spot on the submedian fold ; hindwings brownish fuscous Larva marbled dark and light grey: a dorsal row of red spots on black blotches, and a row of white spots on each side; a pale line below spiracles, containing orange-red tubercles; segments 5 and 12 of dorsum humped; tubercles with fascicles of fuscous and fulvous hairs— turanica Stgr., a form from Central Asia, is much paler, with the hindwings whitish. — Chinese and Japanese examples (3k) are larger than European and in all cases darker; in particular the lower half of forewing is blacker and the white spot of outer line then often obscured ; possibly the scotch form figured by Curtis as salicis, a melanic form, may represent this aberration , though the larva figured as belonging thereto is unquestionably that of menyanthidis.

The situation was further confused by mislabeled museum specimens, including a misidentified Bhutan giant flying squirrel that was recognised as a paratype for the Hodgson's giant flying squirrel in 1918. This confusion was the source of the incorrect reports of "Hodgson's giant flying squirrels" with a light stripe along the mid-back, a claim sometimes still repeated based on the original misunderstanding by Blanford. Only in the late 1970s and early 1980s was it firmly established that the two species differ both in their colour patterns and size. In addition to its larger average size (although its tail may be shorter) and differences in the skull, the Bhutan giant flying squirrel has flanks that are roughly the same colour as the shoulder patches, it often—but not always—has a light stripe along the mid-back, and it often—but not always—has a distinct pale fulvous or orange–buff band/patch on the crown (making the dark top of the head appear rather like a bandit mask).

There is an erect silvery-white subbasal band and a silvery-white band just before middle, defined on each side by dark brown below the cell, excurved below the costa and above the inner margin and emitting a spur at the discal fold to the white discoidal lunule defined by black except above. The medial part of the costa is white and there is a silvery-white wedge-shaped mark in the discal fold before the postmedial band, which is silvery white defined on each side by dark brown, incurved below the costa, then excurved to vein 3, below which it is angled inwards, then erect with its outer edge excurved at the submedian fold. There is also a silvery-white subterminal band from the costa to vein 1, defined on each side by dark brown, strongly on the outer side, its extremities at the costa and above vein 1 dilated into spots, excurved between those points. The hindwings are orange yellow with a slight fulvous tinge and a white base.

The wingspan is about 28 mm. The forewings are white, with a large, slightly oblique, kidney-shaped blotch of ochreous and grey scales just before the middle of the inner margin, reaching to the upper margin of the cell and extending beyond it between veins 4 and 6, its origin represented by a small grey spot on the costa at about one-third, and followed between veins 2 and 4 by a clear hyaline (glass-like) patch. The outer line from the costa before two-thirds, oblique outwards and ochreous as far as vein 5, then lunulate inwards and grey, parallel to the hindmargin, the lunule between veins 4 and 5 filled up with black. The submarginal line is white, lunulate-dentate and preceded and followed by ochreous-grey bands, more or less broken up into patches by the paler veins and not extending beyond vein 6, the apical area remaining pure white and the outer band shaded with brown and fulvous scales, especially between veins 6 and 3.
