摘要

摘要哺乳动物毛皮中的生物荧光被认为是罕见的，但近年来已在多个分类群中被记录。在此，我们首次观察到化石哺乳动物的生物荧光。我们记录了活的Geomys pinetis（东南口袋地鼠）和另外四种地粘虫的博物馆标本中的生物荧光。虽然未知，但袋地鼠生物荧光的适应性意义可能与之前在陆地和树木物种中记录的相似，包括交流或捕食者逃避。

Ultraviolet Biofluorescence in Pocket Gophers

Abstract. Biofluorescence in mammal pelage is considered rare, but has been documented in multiple taxa in recent years. Herein, we provide the first observations of biofluorescence in fossorial mammals. We documented biofluorescence in live Geomys pinetis (southeastern pocket gopher) and in museum specimens of four additional geomyid species. Although unknown, the adaptive significance of biofluorescence in pocket gophers is likely similar to that documented in terrestrial and arboreal species previously, including communication or predator evasion.

期刊介绍： The American Midland Naturalist has been published for 90 years by the University of Notre Dame. The connotations of Midland and Naturalist have broadened and its geographic coverage now includes North America with occasional articles from other continents. The old image of naturalist has changed and the journal publishes what Charles Elton aptly termed "scientific natural history" including field and experimental biology. Its significance and breadth of coverage are evident in that the American Midland Naturalist is among the most frequently cited journals in publications on ecology, mammalogy, herpetology, ornithology, ichthyology, parasitology, aquatic and invertebrate biology and other biological disciplines.
