Genetta thierryi Matschie 1902 View in CoL , Verh. V. Internat. Zool. Congr., 1901: 1142.

Type Locality: "Hinterlang von Togo von 9° n. Br. ab.", restricted to "Borogu = Borgou, (10.78 N., 0.65 E)" by Schlawe (1981:159). GoogleMaps

Vernacular Names: Haussa Genet.

Synonyms: Genetta rubiginosa Pucheran 1855 ; Genetta villiersi (Dekeyser 1949) .

Distribution: Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Gambia, Ghana, Mali, Nigeria, Niger, Sierra Leone, Senegal, Togo.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Includes Pseudogenetta villiersi (see Crawford-Cabral, 1969, 1981 a; Rosevear, 1974; and Schlawe, 1981). Schlawe (1981) pointed out that the type of G. rubiginosa , which traditionally has been considered a synonym of G. maculata , is actually a senior synonym of G. thierryi . This was later verified by Crawford-Cabral and Pacheco (1992), who nevertheless continued to use " rubiginosa " to represent the Rusty-spotted Genet (= maculata ). See Gaubert et al. (2003 a) for use of the name G. thierryi Matschie, 1902 , under the status of nomen protectum. See also comments under G. maculata .
