Abstract
To date, the Sulawesi palm civet Macrogalidia musschenbroekii, a viverrid endemic to the eastern Indonesian island of Sulawesi, was thought to be confined to North and Central Sulawesi. During a 14-month survey throughout south-east Sulawesi, new observations were made of the civet through camera-trapping in south-east Sulawesi forests: at Rawa Aopa National Park, Tanjung Peropa Wildlife Reserve, and Mangolo Recreation Forest, thereby extending the species' range significantly. This paper describes these sightings, and summarizes information on its status and distribution. © 2003 FFI.
