[edit] Evers
Ever ref. above is for eversmanni. There is no eversmannii as listed in the species box.
[edit] Volatiles
Interesting material. It would be a nice addition to note which of these are most easily (too easily) perceived by human scent perception. In skunks the nose tasty chemical is ethyl mercaptin (sp?) which is sometimes used to flavour otherwise toxic odorless gasses. MaxEnt 11:08, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- Good question. Though when the paper stated that all the volatile components identified had a sulfur component I jumped (perhaps erroneously)to the conclusion that those would also be detectable by our dull nasal faculties.wagors 14:26, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
