Description

THE SKULL CAPS OR LOPHIOMYS. One of the strangest Rodents ever captured was taken in 1865 to the Jardin d'Acclimation in Paris. The
long mane along the middle of the back and the tail was found to be erectile like a boar's, and the Greek name " Lophiomys," signifying " a mouse with hoar's
bristles, " was given it. and a separate family (Lophiomyida ) was created for it It is. however, closely allied to the Mouse family. The muzzle of the rather
small head is brown and adorned with long whisker hairs, and the general colo
forehead. The inner toe of each hind foot is opposable, like i
uses in climbing. After the first specimen was taken to Pari
( Lopkiomys im/tausii.)
of the animal is a dark gray, but there are white stripes on the sides and on the
lb. and the paw is thus converted into a prehensile hand, which the animal freely
other was seen in Europe until 1S03, when one was secured by the Museum at Stuttgart.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
