猫猴

Unlike that of the other gliders, the colugo's patagium embraces the tail as well as the limbs, and it extends right to the tips of the fingers and toes.

与其它滑翔动物不同的是，猫猴的翼膜覆盖了它的四肢和尾巴，甚至延伸到指尖和脚趾。

The Colugo's Tale contains my justification — or apology?

我采用的方法是，在猫猴和树鼩加入我们的"寻祖之旅"之前，将它们统一起来。

The two species, Cynocephalus volans the Philippine colugo, and C.

菲律宾猫猴Cynocephalus volans和马来西亚猫猴C。

Recent evidence suggests that they are closer to lemurs than was realised even by those responsible for the misnomer.

不过最近有证据表明，猫猴比那些搞错它名字的人所想象的还要接近于狐猴。

The tail region of the patagium is folded forwards to form a makeshift pouch in which the young sits.

猫猴妈妈把它翼膜的尾巴部分向前折叠，将就着形成一个育儿袋，这样猫猴宝宝就可以安坐其中了。

The mother often hangs upside down from a branch like a sloth, and the patagium then looks and feels like a hammock for the baby.

猫猴妈妈通常会懒洋洋地倒挂在树枝上，这样翼膜就变成了猫猴宝宝的"吊床"。

Like the flying squirrels of America and Eurasia, the more distantly related flying scaly-tailed squirrels of Africa, and the marsupial gliders of Australia and New Guinea, colugos have a single large flap of skin, the patagium, which works a bit like a controlled parachute.

与美洲和欧亚大陆的飞行松鼠，以及与之关系更远的非洲飞行鳞尾狐猴、澳大利亚和新几内亚的有袋滑翔动物一样，猫猴有一个大大的、单独的皮肤翅膀——翼膜，翼膜的作用有点像可控制的降落伞。

They are the 18 species of tree shrews and the two species of colugos or 'flying lemurs', all from South East Asia.

它们就是树鼩的18个种和猫猴（也就是所谓的&飞狐猴&）的2个种。

Colugos have long been known as flying lemurs, prompting the obvious put-down: they neither fly nor are lemurs.

在很长一段时间内，猫猴也被叫做&飞狐猴&，其实不然，原因显而易见：它们既不会飞，也不是狐猴。

Very possibly the same will happen with this book, and it isn't just the colugos and tree shrews. The position of tarsiers (Rendezvous 7), and the grouping of lampreys with hagfishes (Rendezvous 22) are unsure. The affinities of the afrotheres (Rendezvous 13) and the coelacanths (Rendezvous 19) are still slightly unsure. The ordering of our rendezvous with cnidarians and ctenophores (Rendezvous 28 and 29) could be the wrong way round.

很可能本书也会同病相怜，这不仅仅是因为猫猴和树鼩——跗猴的位置（见第7纪），以及七鳃鳗和八目鳗类鱼的分组（见第22纪）尚不能确定；远古非洲哺乳动物（见第13纪）和腔棘鱼类（见第19纪）的亲缘关系也有待商榷；而我们在刺丝胞动物和栉水母类（见第28纪和第29纪）章节的编排上也许也是一个错误。

By the time of its fall, most of the prisoners were writers who had written against the corruptions of the government.

到它被攻陷的时候，里面多数的犯人是写了反对政府贪污文章的作家。

The most obvious variation to ovum morphological character was that the color was changed from light green to sepiaceous in embryonic development, and all the ovums were almost hatched after 96h.

在胚胎发育过程中卵的形态特征最明显的变化是颜色从淡绿到深褐色，卵在发育96h后卵基本全部孵化。
