Discussion: Revised by Lynch (1981), Watson and Dippenaar (1987), Watson (1990), and Taylor et al. (1991) who considered these taxa a monophyletic group. Crawford-Cabral (1989 a:2) regarded this group as a "superspecies with several allospecies." These taxa are provisionally separated from Herpestes (sensu latu) following revisions and reviews by Rosevear (1974), Ansell (1978), Smithers (1983), and Meester et al. (1986) (see discussion under Herpestes ). McKenna and Bell (1997) included in Herpestes .
