The long-tailed planigale ( Planigale ingrami ), also known as Ingram's planigale or the northern planigale, is the smallest of all marsupials, and one of the smallest of all mammals.

The long-tailed planigale was described in 1906 by Oldfield Thomas, who placed it in the genus Phascogale.

The head shape aside ( which in any case is not obvious from all angles ), the long-tailed planigale looks rather like a very small mouse with a long, bare tail.

The long-tailed planigale prefers floodplains and savannah woodlands with cracked clay soils, as well as riparian areas and blacksoil plains.

The Philippine Eagle was known initially as the Philippine Monkey-Eating Eagle because it was believed to feed on monkeys ( the only monkey native to the Philippines is the Philippine long-tailed macaque ) almost exclusively ; this has proven to be inaccurate.

The long-tailed pair has many attributes as a switch: largely immune to tube ( transistor ) variations ( of great importance when machines contained 1, 000 or more tubes ), high gain, gain stability, high input impedance, medium / low output impedance, good clipper ( with not-too-long tail ), non-inverting ( EDSAC contained no inverters!

The long-tailed weasel has well-developed anal scent glands, which produce a strong and musky odour.

A broad-winged and long-tailed, it also has long legs and frequently walks and runs on the ground.

The juvenile is streaked and has a spotted mantle. It is an upright long-tailed flycatcher.

Despite its bulky, long-tailed appearance, this pigeon has a fast, direct flight.

The Wrentit has been variously placed in its own family, the Chamaeidae, or with the long-tailed tits ( Aegithalidae ), the true tits and chickadees ( Paridae ), the " Old World warblers " ( Sylviidae ), and with the " Old World babblers " ( Timaliidae ).

Until now the false gharial was thought to have a diet similar to its relative the true gharial, i. e. only fish and very small vertebrates, but new evidence and occurrences have proven that the false gharial's broader snout has enabled larger individuals to prey on larger vertebrates including Proboscis monkeys, long-tailed macaques, deer and fruit bats.

In Tuva, Campbell's dwarf hamster has been found living with other hamsters such as the Chinese striped hamster, the roborovski hamster and the long-tailed dwarf hamster.

The long-tailed weasel is one of the largest members of the genus Mustela in North America, with a total length of 300 – 350 mm and a tail comprising 40 – 70 % of the head and body length.

The Common Buzzard can be similar-looking, with a similar long-tailed shape and can be notoriously variable in plumage.

The weaver birds and their allies, including the long-tailed whydahs, are abundant, as are, among game-birds, the francolin and guineafowl.

A classic application for a pair of class-A devices is the long-tailed pair, which is exceptionally linear, and forms the basis of many more complex circuits, including many audio amplifiers and almost all op-amps.

In more primitive, long-tailed pterosaurs (" rhamphorhynchoids ") such as Rhamphorhynchus, the average growth rate during the first year of life was 130 % to 173 %, slightly faster than the growth rate of alligators.

Rats are various medium-sized, long-tailed rodents of the superfamily Muroidea.

Females who prefer long tailed males tend to have mothers that chose long-tailed fathers.

The female widow bird will desire to mate with the most attractive long-tailed male so that her progeny, if male, will themselves be attractive to females of the next generation-thereby fathering many offspring who will carry the female's genes.

An equivalent way of expressing this is that if most females are looking, for example, for long-tailed males, then each female individually does better to select a long-tailed male, since then her male children are more likely to succeed.

** Numerous minor waterways navigable by shallow-draft native craft, such as long-tailed boats.

In Bangkok, the Chao Phraya River is a major transportation artery, with ferries, water taxis ( the Chao Phraya Express ) and long-tailed boats.

A common circuit using this last technique is the long-tailed pair, often seen in television sets and oscilloscopes.

The long-tailed pangolin is also active by day.

Many of the smaller, long-tailed species of lories may be referred to as lorikeets.

The stoat first arose in Eurasia, shortly after the long-tailed weasel arose as its mirror image in North America 2 million years ago.

The stoat and the long-tailed weasel remained separated until half a million years ago, when falling sea levels exposed the Bering land bridge.

An agama is any one of the various small, long-tailed, insect-eating lizards of the genus Agama.

The word " quetzal " was originally used for just the Resplendent Quetzal, the famous long-tailed quetzal of Central America, which is the national bird and the name of the currency of Guatemala.

Mammals which call these places home include the red fox, long-tailed weasel, mink, muskrat, woodchuck, several bat species, bottlenose dolphins, harbour porpoises and possibly river otters which are close to local extinction in Long Island with only an estimated 8 individuals thought to have recently migrated from Connecticut.

But many species of moderate altitudes — for example the long-tailed pheasants of the genus Syrmaticus — also find a great deal of their daily nutritional reqirements in the tree canopies, especially during the snowy and rainy periods when foraging on the ground is dangerous and less than fruitful for a variety of reasons.

Thus, at a given temperature, a short-tailed lipid will be more fluid than an otherwise identical long-tailed lipid.

Some paleobiologists report that, based on computer models of their biomechanical capabilities, certain long-tailed dinosaurs such as Apatosaurus and Diplodocus may have possessed the ability to flick their tails at supersonic velocities, possibly used to generate an intimidating booming sound.

The species was moved in 1928 by Ellis Le Geyt Troughton, who created the genus Planigale for it and the other then-known species, the common planigale ( P. maculata ), and described the narrow-nosed planigale ( P. tenuirostris ).

This smallest planigale takes that trend to an extreme: at just from top to bottom, the skull is one-fifth as deep as it is wide.

With the larger prey like grasshoppers, an initial pounce is often insufficient and the planigale bites repeatedly until its prey no longer struggles.

The common planigale ( Planigale maculata ), also known as the pygmy planigale or the coastal planigale, is one of many small marsupial carnivores known as " marsupial mice " found in Australia.

The common planigale was first described by John Gould in 1851.
