This paper describes an international bibliographic database of 1213 papers, notes, books and unpublished reports dating between 1877 and 2004. It includes all available information on stoats and weasels (Mustela erminea, M. nivalis and M. frenata) ranging from casual observations to high-powered analyses. The database is listed in a searchable, interactive form on a website, www.feral.org.au, and as a simple reference list at bio.waikato.ac.nz/staff/bibliography.pdf. The listing will be regularly updated, but this introductory analysis reveals some interesting general trends so far. (1) Most of the world literature on small mustelids (53% of 1213 entries) describes work done outside New Zealand before 1990. This international literature offers a very large resource to mustelid biologists in New Zealand, which we should not ignore and cannot afford to repeat, although it should be treated with caution. The database is intended to provide easy access to this important background information. (2) New Zealand is now the world centre for research on mustelids, especially stoats: more papers on stoats have been published here--mostly (243 of 321) since 1990--than in the whole of Europe over a much longer period. (3) The database illustrates some major differences in the type of papers published about small mustelids in different parts of the world, and historical trends in publication rates by geographic region (steady in Europe; declining in America and Russia; accelerating in New Zealand). It also provides a useful framework within which to examine some historical trends in conservation priorities within New Zealand.

A comprehensive treatment of the fierce little predators: physical description, life cycle and span, evolution, hunting and reproduction behavior, population dynamics, the impact on their prey, diseases, and their relation to humans (mostly as pests, i.e. competitors). The color plates are informative, but the line drawing are marvelous. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).

Biology and Diseases of the Ferret, Third Edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to provide a current, comprehensive reference on the ferret. Encyclopedic in scope, it is the only book to focus on the characteristics that make the ferret an important research animal, with detailed information on conditions, procedures, and treatments. Offering basic information on biology, husbandry, clinical medicine, and surgery, as well as unique information on the use of ferrets in biomedical research, Biology and Diseases of the Ferret is an essential resource for investigators using ferrets in the laboratory and for companion animal and comparative medicine veterinarians. The Third Edition adds ten completely new chapters, covering regulatory considerations, black-footed ferret recovery, diseases of the cardiovascular system, viral respiratory disease research, morbillivirus research, genetic engineering, hearing and auditory function, vision and neuroplasticity research, nausea and vomiting research, and lung carcinogenesis research. Additionally, the anesthesia, surgery, and biomethodology chapter has been subdivided into three and thoroughly expanded. The book also highlights the ferret genome project, along with the emerging technology of genetically engineered ferrets, which is of particular importance to the future of the ferret as an animal model in research and will allow the investigation of diseases and their genetic basis in a small, easily maintained, non-rodent species.

Biological invasion, an issue of growing importance due to the significant increase in international transportation and trade, can disturb the balance of local ecosystems and even destroy them. This collection of papers presented at the International Conference on Assessment and Control of Biological Invasion Risks held in August 2004 at Yokohama National University discusses risk assessment, risk management and eradication. It also includes contributions reporting on the current status of invasion and the properties of alien species in East Asia.

"This is the second issue in the Global Re-introduction Perspectives series and has been produced in the same standardized format as the previous one. The case-studies are arranged in the following order: Introduction, Goals, Success Indicators, Project Summary, Major Difficulties Faced, Major Lessons Learned, Success of Project with reasons for success or failure. For this second issue we received a total of 72 case-studies compared to 62 in the last issue. These case studies cover the following taxa as follows: invertebrates (9), fish (6), amphibians (5), reptiles (7), birds (13), mammals (20) and plants (12) ... We hope the information presented in this book will provide a broad global perspective on challenges facing re-introduction projects trying to restore biodiversity."--Pritpal S. Soorae.
