The dwarf musk deer or Chinese forest musk deer (Moschus berezovskii, Шаблон:Zh) is an artiodactyl native to southern and central China and northernmost Vietnam. The species name is after the collector Mikhail Mikhailovich Berezovsky. On June 14, 1976, China entered the dwarf musk deer onto its endangered species list.[1] Four subspecies are recognized:[2]
- Moschus berezovskii berezovskii Flerov, 1929
- Moschus berezovskii bijiangensis Wang & Li, 1993
- Moschus berezovskii caobangis Dao, 1969
- Moschus berezovskii yanguiensis Wang & Ma, 1993
Parasites
As most animals, the dwarf musk deer harbours a number of parasites.[3] In 2021, a study showed that ten species of Eimeria, which are apicomplexan protozoans living in the digestive tract, were specific of this host.[4]
