Family Felidae

REVIEWED BY: G. E. Glass (GEG); C. P. Groves (CPG); N. A. Neff (NAN); J. RamirezPulido (JRP)(Mexico); I. Rieger (IR); O. L. Rossolimo (OLR)(U.S. S.R.); A. H. Shoemaker (AHS); H. J. Stains (HJS).

COMMENT: The generic classification of this family is unstable; see Guggisberg, 1975, The Wild Cats of the World, 328 pp. Due to inconsistencies of the dates of publication for Schreber's names in the literature, we follow Sherborn, 1892, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1891: 587-592 (NAN).

PROTECTED STATUS: CITES - Appendix II except Felis catus .

ISIS NUMBER: 5301412007000000000.
